Seriously, someone should buy these kids a sandbox.

Working? Or playing?
A month ago Mr. Rancher brought home a load of firewood. We had more fun than usual, "moving the wood into the shed."
Busy. Busy-er. Busy-est.
Will life ever slow down? I'm beginning to think the answer to that question is a big, resounding NO! Remember that post about graduate school ending and the chunk of time I was sure I would have, but also sure would be filled in no time flat? Yeah, that chunk of time never appeared, and … Continue reading Busy. Busy-er. Busy-est.
Playgrounds for Farmers
My children love the park as much as the next kid, but what they don't realize is that much of our daily life on the farm/ranch is a playground.

Becca and I had a few moments alone a few weeks ago while Henley was out working with Ty and the little miss had the chance to take a bath all by herself. She loved the water as always and was excited to look at the darling baby in the mirror afterwards. My beautiful girl … Continue reading Bath-time Happy-Time
Bedhead
The lion and the unicorn were fighting for the crown... No, the "lion did not beat the unicorn all around the town" at least not in this version. Can you say "bedhead?"
Diversity
The following is my final paper written for my Diversity 598 class required for my masters program. Excuse the formal tone and academic citations, this is a blog after all, but I hope you'll enjoy this memory of a very precious and intriguing experience I was able to have. The assignment was to experience a … Continue reading Diversity
