It's been a long time...Thanksgiving and Christmas have passed and the New Year is here! I don't have a resolution really, only to not have a resolution! I never follow through on them so there is really no point right? I would like to lose a few pounds and need to drink more water, definitely. But I'm not making it official! I think I just broke my resolution...Anyway...
We had a quiet Christmas Day here. The kids were very excited for the presents they received. Even though it wasn't Josiah's first, it was the first big one for him not being an infant and all. He had a blast ripping paper, and once he got the hang of it, he didn't want to stop! The weekend before Christmas was CRAZY! We had 11 cousins in the house at once! Ages ranged from 4 months to 16 years. It was a lot of fun!!
I really missed my family this year. Even though we had a good time, there are missing pieces to my life and they are all spread out between CA, CO, and AZ. It's hard not seeing them, especially on the holidays.
New Year's was just not a big deal for us. We stayed up, but we don't have cable, so we didn't see the ball drop or anything - big deal, huh? We just watched movies, and said goodnight at midnight.
On New Year's Eve, we welcomed triplet goats onto our farm! A few nights later, twin goats, and the night after that, twin goats! Then, this morning, our tiny fainting goat, Sunshine, had triplets. One of them didn't make it but the other two are fine. So, in 9 days we had 9 new kids!! (Baby goats!) The "Goat Nursery" is full and we still have 3 more does who are probably expecting! I think they might be a couple of months away though.
I will post more pics as soon as I can. I just bought a new computer and don't have my stuff installed on it yet. I was without a computer for 2 weeks or so, which added to my neglected blog!
Until then, I hope all of you are wonderful and thanks for visiting my page. Love to all...
