Highlights From This Year

Good day, friends!  

It has been a long while since I've shared an update post. Thought you might enjoy looking at some pictures and highlights from this year. :)

A January sunset. 

Lauren and Deborah earned their black belts in Tae Kwon Do in February. The video shows their group doing the red-black belt form. If you are viewing this post on your email, click here to visit the blog to watch. 

Deborah found a baby otter and kept it in a bucket for only a short while, before it ran away. :) 

Deborah turned sweet 16 in March, and as a surprise gift we went parasailing together. It was a total blast, and not scary in the least little bit. What a memorable outing! :) 

Gracies is doing well, and is as adorable as ever. She really loves to play with the goats; she thinks it's a fun game to nip their legs and bark, and they try to head-but her in return. It is quite amusing to watch. :D Here she is in motion...

A couple weekends ago my dad helped me repaint my bedroom. He made this lovely bookshelf, which accents the room perfectly. :) 

Toby: the goat.  

Zoey: the goat. She moves all the time, and it is very hard to get a good, still picture of her. ;) They have grown so much the past few months, and are very mischevous. They spend most of their day tied up on a leash so they won't get into trouble. 

I've been doing some gardening and have potatoes, green beans, and tomatoes growing so far. A variety of seeds have been planted in the past couple days, but haven't sprouted yet. I'll probably share pictures in the future when they do sprout. :)  

Well I would love to chat with you in the comments and hear how your year has been or what you have been up to recently. Enjoy the day!
