April 16th 2012

Such a lovely world out there. Kind of looks like we went back to December.  I think it is perfect for fast sledding, but I have to work today and I am pretty sure this isn’t going to last very long.

I love our Minnesota springs. Rather unpredictable.

An Irish Blessing.

May the friendships you make,
Be those which endure,

And all of your grey clouds
Be small ones for sure.

And trusting in Him
To Whom we all pray,

May a song fill your heart,
Every step of the way.

Great is Thy faithfulness

Great is Thy faithfulness

Morning by morning new mercies I see

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided

Great is Thy faithfulness
Lord unto me

A summer birthday.

 

10 years old. I can remember it being one of the best years of my life. maybe just because it is one of my favorite numbers. …. but probably because it is just a good age.

Happy Birthday to Jonathan!

Love shoot.

I've had this photoshoot in my mind, wanting to take it.

Love. :)

...

Daisy-Flower Popcorn.

This is she.

Daisy-Flower Popcorn.

She is our bottle fed baby. Bottle fed babies are special because like any life form- you become attached to your mommy. and since we are the feeders, we get to be the mommy.

My timer picture. :) Everybody else was kinda busy so I decided to take our own picture. It was kinda awkward though because I had to kneel down in the mud. But that was kinda fun too. :)

Megan named her Daisy-Flower. Now Daisy is a bit of a rerun name, but since it was Megan's naming job it is excusable. :) But I added the popcorn. Just 'cause I liked it.

Saturday's Breakfast.

Our family has decided to go on a weight loss challenge. I am aiming on losing 10lbs. and I am not sure what everybody elses goals are.

but I like sugar a lot. So I have been dreaming up healthy yet delicous desserts.

This is the only one so far... but I will keep you posted.

What makes it healthy? Actually it still has sugar. And it has fat. But not a whole lot of both and it has fruit too! So that makes it like 10 times better for you. ;)

But anyhow...

The crust is a sugar cookie recipe with almost all whole wheat.

The frosting is a light glaze made with neufchâtel cheese ( instead of cream cheese.)

and of course there is fruit on top. :)

so it's healthy- right?

On the Farm....

We have little baby goats. or kids. :)

They are as adorable as ever.

Don't you wish you had ears like this baby?

Sooo cute.

This lady is still expecting I think. But she likes to have her picture taken.

Backwards Buffalo.

Can you guess how many? :) I think I know.
