Been busy! I had my two youngest granddaughters for a week, celebrated the youngest turning 9 on September 1. She wanted pumpkin pie for her birthday so we went to the grocery store. My daughter orders online and does the pick up thing. A busy working mom with kids, it's much easier on her. So going in the grocery store is a big deal for the girls. They ran wild. We terrorized the store and bought up a bunch of junk food. LOL We face timed the parents and sang her Happy Birthday. The next day she wanted cake, so we did that too and facetimed her parents and sang Happy Birthday again.
The girls played with the sheep and dogs. Sheba always targets Catherine for tummy rubs. Buford looks like he thinks he'd like a tummy rub too.
Cooper follows Charlotte around for attention. Rams are usually looking for a way to knock you down, but Cooper is an exception. Still, I caution the girls to keep an eye on him, he IS a ram! And I'm always nearby when they are in the sheep pasture and Cooper is out with them.
I had a great time with the girls and all too soon, it was time to take them back to their parents.
A long time friend of mine has a daughter and son in lay that opened an ice house and cafe. only open on Friday and Saturday nights, they both have full time professions, but he wanted a bar, so there it is. My friend and her husband were going to go to the icehouse for some live music, so I met them there. My first "going out" in 4 years since BJ died. We sat at a table, they had a couple of beers, I had iced tea. Nice place, family atmosphere, there were kids running around playing. They are having an Urban Cowboy night in October and I've made reservations for 3, me and 2 friends. Girls night out!
And of course work on the farm goes on. I had a huge dead tree taken down, took 2 people to reach around it. It's been dead awhile, huge branches falling down, it was dangerous. I'm glad to have it gone. I've been on the tractor, mowing goat weed and cleaning up the fields for fall. I've done some repair work, various things and the cooler weather sure is helping. My plans for fall/winter are to tear down an outbuilding and a roping chute. The roping chute id full of black berry canes over my head and covered in thorns. Not going to be much fun, but it needs to get done.
