Sunday Stills (creepy things)

Not one of my favorite things to capture on the camera.  I hate spiders, I would rather have a snake than any spider! (or bug for that matter)  I had tons of garden spiders earlier in the season.  I think that they are just as creepy but they at least have some nice color to them!

Have a wonderful Sunday.

Morning

It is a fogging morning this morning.  I love to see the fog with the animals silhouetted against the background.  I will be taking those pictures this morning.  This is the sunset from the other day.  I am starting to enjoy the colors that are starting to emerge  on the trees.  The hubby and I are going to take a trip up into the mountains, either this weekend or next, just to go see some of the wonderful colors.

I really love this time of year.  It isn't all that hot and not really cold.  Just the right temperature to be comfortable in.  You can clean stalls, do hay, and wood without breaking out in a heavy duty sweat.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Horse World

From these pictures the horses and ponies sure look scruffy, but they aren't.  They are really in pretty darn good shape, the ponies are looking a whole lot better than when we first got them.  I was too lazy to get good pictures.

Homework like usual, takes up a lot of my time.  Just a few more months and it will be all done.  The hubby is waiting for that day to come!  I will be graduating in December but the commencements are done in May.  I will be waiting for that day.  Hate to say it, but I am pretty darn proud of myself.  Now all I have to do is get my weaving up and going and things will be good.

Hope everyone is having a great week, weekend is almost here!

What we love!

I really don't have a whole lot to blog about.  I found this random picture that I had taken a few weeks ago.  The hubby had all his stickers on the truck and I decided that I had to add one of my own!  If you all don't know by now the hubby isn't all that big on horses but he let me put my horsey sticker on the window!  Nice of him wasn't it ;-)  As you can see we are passionate about our gun rights and the hubby loves his International tractor (like the rest of his family).

We are having a good round of days with no rain and fantastic weather.  The hubby mowed down the second cutting of hay this weekend.   I just went out to the field to check on how it is drying.  The hubby will be glad to know that when he gets home the hay will be ready to rake and bale!  No rain in the forecast until later in the day on Sunday!

Hope you are having a great week.

Its only Tuesday!

Very neat moth the son found when he was covering plants from the frost.

Just another day and school for both the son and I.  Other than that, not much is new here on the farm.  The ponies are doing good.  The mule likes to be very "mule-ish" towards the Shetland.  We were keeping them in the same stall and the mule was kicking the holy heck out of the other pony. So, we ended up having to separate them during feeding time.

Fall is here, the leaves are starting to turn colors.  Cool weather has arrived, but still pretty darn nice.  It is supposed to get up in the low 70's this week.   We had a couple of frost advisories this past week, that is why the son was covering plants!

Hope you are having a great week.

Breakfast anyone?

I think one of my favorite meals is my oven omelet in my cast iron.  It is a favorite of the families.  We have company coming this weekend, I think I will be making it again soon.

Not much going on, we put up some pear jam this weekend, and we still have lots of pears left.  We are going to can the rest of the pears that we have,  if I can get the time to do it.  The son and hubby mowed down the second cutting of hay and it is supposed to be a wonderful week for drying it.  This weekend we will hopefully be baling and putting it in the barn.  Still have lots of things to accomplish before the winter season starts.  Wood cutting, basement finished, equipment put up for the winter, house yards cleaned of garbage and excess debris.  Never ending things to get done before snow flies.  Yes, it is coming whether we want it to or not!

Have a great evening.
