Tattoo cont.

I picked snowflakes for part of my tattoo because I adore watching snow fall. I am watching it right now actually. It makes me feel so cozy and calm. I added the black design to be a little bolder than just snowflakes.  I will post a pic as soon as it heals. It is itching like Crazy!!! It hurt quite a bit but the last 10 minutes were plain torture. It took 2 hours total and it looks great according to Hubby.
   We celebrated both My 14 yr old son, Jack and my Husband Craig's birthday on the 15th. Craig turned 40 so it was a big one. I made him a thanksgiving type dinner from one of our own farm turkeys and his sister Staci and her Husband Richard came up for a visit. It was fun but what did my extremely smart, hardworking husband want for his 40th birthday??? An Xbox and Modern Warfare 2 so he could play against our 8 yr old. He still can't beat him but he has spent MANY hours trying to. I am an X box widow. I have had a pretty bad cold for a few days now so I am just happy they are keeping busy and not bugging me.
  We have a new cow named Coco. She is so cute and chocolate colored. She is way pregnant and we can't wait to add her to our dairy but she is a little skittish. We are feeding her lots of treats and petting her so hopefully she will be calmer after she has the baby and it is time to milk her. I have sold 3 milk goats this week so I am feeling rather like a farmer now. It is nice to see some money coming in instead of constantly going out. Still, farming isn't about money to Colleen and I. We just want good food to be available for our families and customers.

  1. Glad to come across your blog too, and thanks for visiting mine. Sounds like we're like-minded. We don't have room for cows, but are excited about getting our goats soon.
