Forgot

Tomorrows challenge word is CIRCLES

Thankful Tuesday

Today something wonderful to be thankful for. Our newest great grandson - Nathaniel Ryan Carmen ................... He is darling, came quickly and Mom is fine and Dad was sleeping on the couch in the room when I was there. He has a big sister Lili. Congratulations to their family, Nana and Papa too. Lots to be thankful for huh?
My challenge picture today of MUD. Mostly its water but mud under the water. It is gross. We kind of live on an island. Now its going to get cold and we will be slipping and sliding.
Slept good last night until we got the phone call from Heather. It was good to just be able to go to bed and go to sleep right away. That is a blessing. Don't ever take it for granted.
I think the horses are as sick of this water as I am. Every winter its the same thing though. I am so thankful for my polka dot boots. I have to clean stalls tomorrow. MUST. Must. It is really hard on my back but I can't stand anymore.
Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.

Girls. On Monday


These are my girls. We still get an egg every day. Some of the other girls are banty size so their eggs are little. Just takes 2 per normal size egg. They dug up the hay string. Don't know how it got there. So this is my girl picture. Tomorrows word is MUD. That will be a challenge because we have a lot of snow on top of the mud. Who knows what it will be by tomorrow.
I got my medication for sleeping so tonight I will sleep. Bob is taking my car to work tomorrow so I will be sleeping in. It sounds very good at this point.
Hope your Tuesday is peaceful.

I don't know what I was thinking - technology. My brain went in slo mo. This is all I could think of beside the technology of my new lens on my camera and eagle pictures below here. They were awesome to watch and to look at. Not too many swooping over the lake but got a couple. They were spectacular and we had a wonderful time watching. We found the best viewing on Hi 97 on the east side of Lake Couer d'Alene at Beauty Bay. I had to walk up the highway a bit to get most of the pictures. Lots of people there doing the same thing. I should have dressed warmer. I did not know I would have to walk outside.






There are 2 in this picture. There is an immature eagle - no white head yet - in the tree beside the one in the top of the tree.



























Tomorrow the picture of the day will be GIRLS. Another to make my mind go loopty loop. What was I thinking?
A fun Sunday. Hope yours was as good.

Brought by the letter M for Mountain

MOUNT SPOKANE is my letter M. It was shot from over on Brooks Rd. near the end of the runway from Fairchild with my new lens. If the house next door to the north wasn't there, I could see it from my kitchen windows. BUT, it is there and I can't see it.

The word for tomorrow is TECHNOLOGY. How my mind came up with that word is puzzling me this evening. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I don't even have a clue at this point. Good luck to Andrea at Mustang Saga, Anita at Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails, and Nikki at Life with Boys. They are the ones I know. If you read my blog and are doing it let us know so we can look at your pictures.

Pet some noses this morning. I thought about mud but it is so depressing to me. Its horrid. Katie and Cameron came out today and pet the horses. Liberty let Cameron pet her nose and rub her neck. I told him he was elected to work with her then. She is particular who lays a hand on her. She tolerates Katie too so she has a project. Abby was glad to see her person. I must clean stalls but tomorrow is church and then we are going to go over to Lake Couer D'Alene to see the eagles. I want to use my new lens so we can see them better. All that is contingent upon Heather not having the baby tonight.

Have a great Sunday. Whatever, I intend to.

Wide, that is what my Fat Boy AKA Pepper is. He is fun to ride, wide or not. Tomorrow the word is anything starting with M. Hope you have fun with this.

Bob and I took a little drive today and this young lady did not have any sense about traffic. She ran across the other way and then turned around and ran back to where she had come from. Actually there were about 100 of them in the field she went to and then ran away from.

This was my very first picture of 2010. It was taken about 5 minutes after 12. It was snowing hard at that moment but turned to rain this morning and most of it is gone now and we have Williams Lakette in our back yard. I was glad to have my polka dot boots. Love them.
Hope the first day of this decade was one of love, hope and peace and that your entire year is full of blessedness.

New Years Eve

This is a picture for Dr. Do. Amelia is his horse. She is really a chubby cheeks. I will need to find the first pictures when she came so we can have before and after.

Our outside group having their supper. The white spots are snowflakes showing up in the flash.

I loaded this by mistake but love it. My good old friend who will be 29 in 2010. I have posted this picture before but love her pink tounge.

From the other end of the feeder. Wrangler, Raven, Abby, Liberty and Rosie the pinto pony.



They are a happy group and were chomping down at their hay. Love them all. I could just sit there and listen to them chew.




Barn kitties, big and small and smaller. They are so cute and friendly. They love be because I feed them.
Those who want to do the 30 day challenge that Tracey on Mustang Diaries gave a few weeks ago. All you have to do is take a picture a day and post it. I put 30 words on 30 pieces of paper in a little box and will draw a word each night and post it. And I will post my picture. The word for tomorrow is WIDE. That will take some thinking. I think I have an idea already. I will post my picture and a new word each day. You post yours and we will have a chuckle and see where our minds go.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EACH OF YOU. May 2010 be filled with blessings and that all your dreams and you hopes will come to pass. I am so blessed.
