And, I'M BACK...long post!!!

OK, OK, so this is the longest I have gone without blogging in a loooonng time!!! We have been really busy and just plugging along waiting on our OUT call! Tomorrow will make seven weeks back in so I am EXPECTING the CALL anyday now.

Here is what we have been up to for the last week:

Last Saturday and Sunday:
We did more of this. We also rented a wood chipper but I was so excited about using it I left the camera inside! Maybe next time. Then, things started to get interesting. First of all, I was pulling this huge wood chipper back to the rental place. HOLY CRAP!! It came off the hitch on the back of the truck! This is a DISASTER waiting to happen!!! Thanks be to God, it stayed chained to the truck and didn't flip over. PHEW!!! I called my hero and he came and saved the day. Yeah, the one time my camera isn't in my purse!!!

So, I get back and go check on the neighbors dog. She is mainly an outside dog and pretty rowdy. The dog has TWO puncture wounds on her back and I realize she has been bitten by another dog. Long story short, I had to clean the wounds and patch her up. She is fine by the way and healing up nicely.

Monday:
We prepared for our 2nd Homestudy. Can you believe it has been a year since our last one? It has been a wonderful year full of such great and exciting experiences. We look forward to what the next year brings.

Tuesday:
We went to Texas to look at a new horse. I have said before that we want to get involved in Reining. This is a particular type of horse competition. So, we needed a horse with some experience and training in the sport. Here are a few pics from the day.

We go Monday to pick up the horse. His name is Dunnits Own Twist. "Twist" for short.




Here I am snapping a self-portrait while I wait on my husband. He was teaching our trainer how to use a video software program on his computer.


Oh, I thought I would show you my FAVORITE pair of boots!!!


Wednesday:
I headed to Tulsa to get my hair done and then that evening we went over to my Grandparents. My Pops has had some health problems over the last year but he is getting stronger everyday. Anyways, we went over and had Bible study since he hasn't been able to go to church. We sang several songs and listened to a message. Then we had prayer. It was so precious to hear him pray for Analise and her homecoming. It is a memory I will hold in my heart and mind forever.

Me and Pops



Pops and Nanny have these pics of Analise on their fridge. It was so sweet to see her up there..


Today:
I got up and did a little shopping. I found this piece of artwork for our entry. I LOVE IT!!! It also has my favorite scripture in the top, right hand corner. Click on the pic to see what it is!!


This evening we are relaxing and blogging. I hope everyone had a great week. Peace Out!!
