Kolten's Creativity



I swear Kolten is either a really talented and creative kid or he is just extremely board and comes up with crazy ideas in his head to pass time.  I think it is a combination of both that helped create this little invention of his.  He called it a sling shot.  Who ever invented toys just wanted to take all our money... Kids don't need any stinking toys, just give them some plastic wear and they are set.

Why Do We Like Idaho?

Why do we like to live in Idaho?  Oh, I know, cause we can't get enough of the mosquito's.   I've been bit about 14 times now in various places.  Two odd places, I thought, in my armpit and the back of my neck.  I iche like crazy on my legs.  One touch and it's all over, I'm iching for about a half hour.  My poor horse has huge bumps all over her body from the blood sucking bugs.  I HATE MOSQUITO'S! 

In Loving Memory of My Garden




Well, I guess my garden isn't as badly tromped as I thought.  It could be a lot worse I guess.  Take a look at the first of my crop.  MEXICAN GOLD - I call it - AKA - cilantro.  It is growing better than the weeds believe it or not and smells up my whole kitchen.  I LOVE IT!!!!!!  I also have pea pods that are almost ready to pick and tomatoes.  I picked some carrots today and ate them.  They are about the size of baby carrots (my pinkie).   What is left of my corn is about as tall as my thigh.  I also have some pretty big pumpkin plants, gourds, and chili plants.

Big Surprise!

My deck is almost stained.  You can't see it yet though.  Not until it is all done.  We noticed our grass is starting to grow too.  How EXCITING!!!!!!!!

SOOOOOOOOOO SAD!

You will never guess what happened...  My horses busted through the fence & tromped my garden!  They got a lot of my corn and all the new stuff I planted.  I'm sick about it.  Stupid horses!  I was so proud of it too.
