So so so so sorry that I haven't been posting!! :(

Hey everyone! I am very sorry that I haven't been posting. But I am back now!! And I will definitely be posting more often, so I am going to update everyone. First, Mack our puppy, (you can see him in the animal tab) he has gotten sooooo big! His birthday has passed and he is now 1 year old! He is so big and I can't carry him anymore :( but he has learned several tricks, such as sit pretty, which is when he puts his paws in the air. Weave, which is when he Criss-crosses in my legs. Shot gun is when he sits behind me, then when I say, Shot gun!!! he runs as fast as he can through my legs. He also knows a new trick, which is circle, has anyone seen western movies where there are two guys fighting, and one starts walking in one direction and the other one walks in the other direction so they are both walking in a circle? If you don't know what I am talking about then you need to watch more western movies! Well anyway that's what I taught Mack to do with me :D 

Now I will update you guys on the chickens. We have started incubating!! My dad went into our bathroom (with me) and turned the lights off and shone a flashlight through the eggs and most of the chicken eggs have big dark spots that have blood vessels and are moving. The turkey eggs don't have anything in them :( I think they need to be incubated more than the chicken eggs, but the temperature needs to be 99 to 100 degrees and the humidity needs to be about 60%, I can't wait until they hatch!! (I will post pictures soon!!) Now the hens and roosters, they are doing good, but one very personal death has come, :'( Amelia, my favorite chicken that I literally grew up with has passed, R.I.P Amelia! I miss you! :'(

She is the red one.

Anyway, enough with the sadness, we are now getting about 4 eggs a day so our old hens need some young ones to help them out :) and that's why we are incubating. 

Now the goats, The goats are doing great! They are getting their winter coats and they look so chubby and cute!! Samson has a little problem though, he won't eat his food, My Dad thinks that he doesn't like the flavor of the food, so tomorrow he is going to Tractor Supply to get different dog food. 

Now the horses, They are good also! Anna Belle is good and is still a pasture ornament, Ginger is rideable but Anna freaks out whenever we try to ride her so my Dad is trying to sell her. :( 

Now, I am not sure if I have told you yet, but we have bought a new property (a long long long time ago) and we are going to build a little house on it!! :D YAY!!! Anyway, we just put in our septic system and my dad took alot of pictures!! :D prepare to see nothing but pictures!!!   My Mom wants everyone to know that she did most of the work :)

Okay now I want to show you something very funny! we went to the fair and I rode a bull! True story!! Here is a picture!!

Now I will Show a very long and very fun fishing trip!! We caught a lot of fish too!! Here are a few pictures...

Well that ends the photo's of our camping trip, now for a very painful story, viewer discretion is advised...

My Mom was getting ready to clean a house and she pushed a vacuum cord into our car trunk and smashed her finger when she closed the trunk, she shattered it and had to have stitches at the hospital and a finger cast and everything! here is a picture, if you are squeamish just zoom past it fast....

   

        Gross!!

My Dad and I went to the hot air balloon festival...

It was so cool!! 

The balloon touched the river! No one got hurt.

Now for a trip on 8 mile Mesa!

We went on 8 Mile Mesa for a hike and it was so fun!! Here are pictures...

Now for some exciting news! I am studying for my HAM Radio license,

if you don't know what that is, then go to Google and look it up,(its too complicated) My Dad got me a book to study for it and I am very happy! Wish me luck on the test!
