What A Nice Weekend!

So on Sat. we worked all day out in the barn getting it ready for the Winter again, cleaned and swept up the cobwebs raked the floor to rid it of hay bits. We saw many a worm and found a lil nest of baby mice..She had the nest under our bag that we keep the used up wire that the hay is wrapped in. So the kids had a science class while helping Mom and Dad. Making good memories! We hope that this will be a better year for Hoss but he has started to favor his right front leg already...poor old guy! I fixed an big pot of Green Bean/Ham and Potatoe soup...It was so good after working outside all day. My back was very sore afterwards and I find that I'm not as strong as I used to be.

On Sunday we had Church and then we came home to lunch and rest time. I finally got that chance to sit down and Stitch! I'm Stitching some napkins with Dark Red stars, 1 big star on each napkin..Sweet!

I'm enjoying the new book I got and more than halfway done with it...too bad it's her last on one in the series.

Today I'm fixing a Roast in the crockpot, doing my household chores and trying to keep lil guy busy and not bother Crystal who is home sick with an upset stomach.

I'm loving the Fall weather and cooler temps...How is the Weather were you are?

Sorry no pics this post.

Even with no pictures it was great reading about your weekend.
Sorry to hear you have a sick little one at home. Hopefully tomorrow will be all better!
I love getting things ready for winter...I'm not sure why...it just makes me feel so good inside!
Have a great week!

Oh, I bet the kids loved the baby mice! Did they survive?
Fall is my fav season and I love getting everything ready for winter.
Glad to hear you are able to work in some stitching......It is my fav thing to do.

Cold would describe our weather...windy and cold. I love fall but it went from summer to weather that is more like November...I am waiting for Indian summer I guess! Dianntha
