New Phase of Life

Nothing New Here

I doubt that I even have any readers for my blog. I don't even look at my blog very often, but just decided to update it anyway. Nathan is weatherizing houses for his dad, who has a contract through OACAC (Ozark Area Community Action Corp). I do all the paperwork. It is a nice job and I do not have far to drive.:) We have just about calved out all of our heifers, so our herd has nearly doubled. Anyway, that sums up my life these days. I can't complain, I have a good life.

Flowers and Such

Something New

I know it's been awhile since I blogged last, but my life is not really very exciting. I have been working some, and doing a little gardening. This is very new to me, so hopefully I will not kill all the veggies. I have also been planting flowers in pots and in flower beds. Have you ever tried to dig into Missouri soil? Rocks...so many, many rocks. What's the point of putting yourself through all of that, you may ask? No problem, just have dirt delivered, and cover up all the stinkin' rocks. Yes, the rocks are still there, but you can't see them.:) Anyway, I hope to have a good turnout after all of my hard labor. Ok so maybe my garden is only 10 by 14, but plenty for me and the dude.

WOW!! Three Posts In One Day

These little flowers are growing across the road...we cut a few and brought them to brighten up our dining room.

First Time For Everything

This was my first attempt at a pecan pie. It turned out pretty good, but maybe next time the consistency will be even better.

It's Been A Long, Long Time

So, not much has happened here on Beaver Creek Ranch Road. Yes, that is the name of our road. It always takes a long time when you have to give your address to someone. Anyway, we are now taking care of a cattle herd of 23 head. I find it interesting to learn about cattle. I really like going to the sale barn, when I am not working. I guess I have turned into a country bumpkin...not sure that is even a really word.

Christmas 2008

A Very Unsuccessful Deer Season for Heidi

So maybe the season wasn't such a success, but it was fun. This is actually a picture of me on the day that I shot the squirrel. By the way, the shotgun is my engagement gift. A little different, but that is the reason I love him so much.

Hunting Season

I completed and passed Hunter's Safety this weekend. Guess I will put my engagement gift to good use:) Isn't life in the country grand. I really LOVE it!!

Our House

As you can see we have a lot of yard work to do, but at least the house is nearly finished. They started building our house in April, so I can't complain about the lack of grass.

We were married at GBS on June 21, 2008.

Honeymooning in Colorado

No title...

I guess I'm not very good at this blogging thing. Actually, I forgot my password and could not remember how to get back to my blog. Anyway, as you can see I have found my way. We were married in Cincinnati back in June. Nathan built a beautiful house for us here in Missouri, needless to say I feel very blessed, even maybe a little spoiled. I am thoroughly enjoying my new life here in the sticks.

Start of a blog

Who knows if I will keep up with this, but thought I might try it anyway.
