Last Weekend







We had a couple events to post about this past weekend. Brinley hurt her middle finger a couple months ago playing with the pan lids. The fingernail was falling off, but needed some help coming off. Shad removed it so her nail could regrow without any problems. Brinley's little eyes welled up but she didn't even cry. She is a pretty tough little girl. Here is a picture of the nail and her finger. Sorry if it grosses anyone out :)

It snowed like crazy this weekend. The previous storms were a light fluffy snow, but this storm brought heavy wet snow, perfect for a snowman!!! Saturday we went out and watch Shad build Frosty the cowboy snowman. Brin and I did contribute the head of the snowman, but we watched Shad put it all together. He did a great job!! Later that night Shad and I both thought that there was someone in our front yard just staring at our house and we both were scared. Shad was about ready to bust out the door and scare the person off, but then we realized it was the snowman we built earlier. Yeah, we had a good laugh about it!

We also put our house up for sale by owner this weekend. It is a great house and location, but we want to make money while we still can. Shad and I also are really considering moving to Idaho up by Preston. Since we live by cows it has made us really think about having land and some cattle. Friday night Shad noticed that a calf was laying in the mud and wouldn't get up . He was able to get it up and moving, but the poor thing starved to death the next day. I think we both miss having "wide open spaces" and the freedom to have animals. We would also like Brinley to know what it is like to work hard. I guess we will see what happens! Thanks to all of you who made comments on my last post it really helps!!!
