Early Christmas to me----well maybe.....


NOT!!!!!

Preston's new puppies are finally here.  I don't know who is more excited-- him or the kids.  They are pretty cute, but they are puppies who love to chew on things and bark and all that stuff. 
We have the coolest redneck puppy pen you have ever seen.  I should really post a picture of it, but then again maybe you should just come by and see it.  Let's just say that anyone who comes to my house will not miss the new puppies. 
We still have Hobbs and Viper who Preston says are getting better all the time with the cows, but he has BIG plans and HIGH hopes for these pups!!
To be honest I do too, because nothing makes Preston happier than when his kids and his animals are doing what they are supposed to be doing.  He hasn't been training his horses as much this winter, but I love to hear him talk about how they are progressing, and I love to see how excited he gets when they finally get something he is trying to teach them.  For all you mothers-- just think about how good you feel when your kid actually starts going in the potty instead of diapers. 
By the way their names are Rex and Rusty and dang me I can't remember which one is which, but Ry tells me that she "just needs to get a black one, because she can't tell them brown ones apart."  She loves them even though they do chew on her a little.  She has not forgotten them in her prayers since she found out that we were getting them. 
I guess we hadn't been remembering our cows in our prayers often enough because we had nine yes nine (that is ten percent of the herd) fall through the ice and drown last week.  We don't know if they all went out there together or followed each other in, but good grief.  The joys of ranching and farming.  Kind of like the stock market going belly up!!  Anyway I hope everyone is ready for Christmas and if you are come on over because I am SOOO not.  Merry Christmas!!
