I'm getting close to getting the front of my quilt all pieced together, Yeah! I't's going to be really nice and huge. It's a king size for our bed. I better get sewing!
Here is a close-up. Sorry it's upside down, but you get the point.

A Beautiful Winter Walk on the Homestead

Today was a beautiful winter day, so we took advantage of it and went for a walk. So nice.


I can't believe how big the pond has gotten since we had all that rain. It's amazing.
We even got to see the cows next door. They are in the background on the left. Finally the dogs don't bark at them anymore.
Even Bigfoot the kitty took a walk with us on such a beautiful winter day.

Saving the Fish!

This what was left of our pond down in the goat pen. A big puddle. This was the middle of November and we hadn't gotten any rain yet. We knew there were fish in there.
So, we decided to fish them out and put them in the big pond. We made our own net thanks to my mom and her lingerie bag. ; ) This is my dad fishing them out.

Fishing the fish out of the pond adventure continues

Here I am sorting the fish and creatures of the pond out of the muck and putting them in fresh water to take to the big pond. You can see mud doesn't bother me. Can't wait til our child gets to play in the mud. Hehe!
Here I am taking more fish and things out of the net.
