This is the life.....

Today I picked up the keys to my one-room-school house! I am so excited, I can hardly stand it. I can't wait to sit down and figure out where everything is and just get going. I need to figure my schedule, that is my first priority.
4-day weeks, instruction time is from 7:45-3:45, so if you have any words of advice for me, please pass them along.

Well, enough of that!

Besides driving to GC and picking up my school keys....this has been my day.
Woke-up about 7am
woke T up
walked pigs
took T to work
came home played fetch with T
let the horses out
fed the steers
played more fetch with bodie
sat outside and talked to my mom on the phone
contacted the aide at GC, so we could meet at the school and get keys
got my keys and schedule
did some computer stuff
ate lunch outside
played fetch with bodie
it is now almost 2 in the afternoon, what should I do now?
I have laundry to do......tidy the kitchen, make my bed (oops haven't done that yet).
Put clothes away....oh the list goes on & on.

NO kids today, T is working and E is with some friends for the day.
I'm enjoying the peace and quiet...just hope they get home soon...I am starting to get kind of lonely. :-)

Have I mentioned I love summer!
T - washing his heifer (Ginger)

E - watching the action (she's a ham)

E - with Ms. Wilson's Pony (Finnegan)
She grew to really like him, especially once he was gelded!

Canada Trip

Well, we made a trip up to Canada for the Annual Raymond Stampede Days. It was great fun and it is never a disappointment.
The parade was great, took NO pictures. :-)
Saw lots of people and we strolled around town, that was GREAT. It was great to see so many people from the past, one of the best parts of going back "home".
We ran in the Road Race, Dave did great, Emmy did fantastic and I didn't have my best time but it was a fun race and actually the 1st time I have ever ran in the Raymond 10K.
Here are some slideshows of our race and the fireworks on July 1st.
