Funny story!

OK so its more of a scary story turned funny. I got home from work on Wednesday and went about doing my chores as normal. Well it came time to feed the horses.... Well in order to get them their grain I have to climb over the fence and pour it in the feeder. So I climb the fence, talking to the horses the entire time, I get over the fence just in time to see the horses foot coming at my face I ducked and backed up but he still got me right in the forehead. It really could have been worse. So I went in the house and my sister was like are you OK so I told her want happened. She started to laugh. It did not seem to bad then, I got very nauseous and dizzy. My sister, who works in the ER, was like I think you need to go to the ER. I tried to tell her I was fine but finally gave in and went. He told me I do have a brain! Finally proof. Anyway I had a slight concussion. It could have been so much worse and I am grateful that it wasn't. So that's my funny story. The sad part is I didn't eve get a bruise. I was so mad. All that pain and no bruise. Obviously I do not bruise easily. Anyway so that's my story.

As for other happenings I got some rabbits. We are going to breed them and eat their babies. I know it sounds morbid but its pretty tasty. We also bought baby chickens that when they get big enough we will eat them. Oh and my mom is going to get some girl alpacas! We already have 4 boys that we love but without girls we can not make our herd grow. We are looking forward to getting them here. One is going to have a baby any day now and one is due in September and finally the third one will not have a baby until next year. We are also getting two more boys. You might ask what in the world do you do with alpaca's. Well you shear them and use their fiber to make things. Kind of like a sheep but alpaca fiber is much finer and softer than wool. You also breed them and sell their babies. No we will not be eating the alpacas.

Well that's all I have time for today. Have a great weekend.

Please Pray For Hana & Katie!

My cousin Katies baby Hana is not doing good. She was born with Aicardi Symdrome and was not expected to live outside the womb. She has lived for over a year now but is now at Primary Childrens Hospital and not doing well at all. The worst thing about Aicardi Syndrome is it is very rare and they do not know alot about it. They do know things can change for them very quickly they can go from being ok to being in a dier condition. I ask anyone who might be reading this blog (which may not be very many but every prayer helps) to pray for her and her family. I know we can not change Gods will but I know also that with prayer if something does happen to this blessed little spirit we can make it easier on her family. Katie and her husband have had a hard year. First Hana was born and then their house started falling down and then her husband got laid off. Her husband has now found work and they have found solutions to their house problem but this past year has been a hard one. Please pray for them and keep them in your thoughts. Katie is a strong girl and this has only made her stronger but she can not do this on her own! Her and the rest of her family need your prayers and your faith to cope with this difficult situation. Thank you!
