[cassie]

they sure do LOL more storms today, but not much rain... and Finn had a lesson with his halter and I got it all the way on and buckled up!!!!!

yippee!! the whole time... "more scratches please more more more, oh wait is there something on my head? hmm oh well more scratches PLEASE!!"

we lost a cow today

it was our really old girl... and she really shouldn't have been in calf, but the bull got in with her...

this was her, two weeks ago... we don't know if she got stuck calving or got cast... the poor thing... we think it might have been both and that the calf was breech... she didn't even look like she was that close to calving!

I'm going to go check on my little heifer Jessie tomorrow, she is due to calve soon and she is only tiny so I want to bring her up to calve would hate for anything to happen to her my precious baby girl...

a pic of my baby girl Jessie at one week old <3



and Buddy and Kia, when they were babies <3 they loved hiding in the cubby house when it rained

its raining again

I love the smell of rain so much! actually my favourite thing is falling asleep to the sound of rain on our tin roof.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz LOL

 

[MeganH]

Awww Finn is so cute with his ball!! Love that video!

And so sorry for losing your girl

What sweet pictures!

 

[AnnaC]

So sorry you lost your elderly cow Cassie, she looks a really sweet lady.

You keep a good eye on your Jessie and dont forget the pictures once she calves! The other calves in your pics are just so cute.

I know what you mean by the sound of rain on the roof - my mobile home is just the same and it makes one feel so snug and safe when one listens to the drumming of the rain. But this winter (soon now as it is really getting cold here) I have been told that I am to move up into the house! A shame as I do so love having my 'own space', but I also admit that it is beginning to feel very cold and a bit damp recently and my old bones are already feeling bit chilled. LOL!! Plus the cost of heating this old mobile through the winter is pretty expensive, especially when the house is so warm with the old rayburn plus its two radiators plugging away, that all the upstairs windows have to be left open at nights, or everyone will fry!!

Great news about Finn and his halter - it's wonderful what scratches will accomplish isnt it!!

 

[cassie]

Thanks Anna,

will definitley put up pics when Jessie calves

she is a special little girl, as all my hand raised calves are!

well we have some good news after the sad news of the old cow... we have two more newborn calves born just last night! and they are so cute!!

total of 18 calves now so exciting!! love seeing them running around the big paddock with their tails up high in the air! bucking and playing with each other!!!

rain on a tin roof, is the best!! we all love it so much! I would never get a tiled roof, just because of that reason!!

Love it!

one of the ladies at work said I should send a video of Finn playing with his ball into funniest home videos... so I'm going to try get a good video of him playing with it

also I'm going to Equitana!!!! YAY its a 3 day event, we are going to see the dressage grand final. show horse and rider championships, the horsemanship challenge and the grand final of the show jumping!!!!!!

I'm so excited!!!!!

:yeah

:yeah

can't wait!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Your trip sounds like a lot of fun.

And a great opportunity to pick up some great ideas for your little ones.

 

[Wings]

Equitana is SO much fun!

My avatar pic is when I showed Dreamy there when it was last in Melbourne! Great showing with such a large crowd.

Although I spent almost the whole time working when I was there

totaly exhausting but was so worth it.

Diane~ I have a question for you! I just found out! was having a read of the christmas hint list from everyone and was most intrigued when I saw that you love reading and Steven King!!! I am also a fellow Steven King book lover! don't have many of his books but wanting to add more to my collection... so which ones do you rate the best? how many have you got? and what ones do you still have to add to your collection??

Have you ever read Dee Henderson? she is a Christian suspense author I love her work! just ordered another book of hers!!

can't wait for it to come hehe....

Cassie Cassie Cassie, what can I say other than "you are the sweetest person I have ever met" I finally opened the letter box this morning after a few days cos we have had torrential rain since my birthday, we had the fireman outside our house all night with a boat waiting to carry us all away, we live by a river and they said it would burst, well it did but towards my fields and not the house. Thank goodness I have the horses up here or they would have been washed away

ANYWAY what did I find in the mail box????? My Birthday card from you Cassie, it made me cry

that was such a kind thought.

HUGS (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))

THANK YOU CASSIE

p.s. sorry to hear about your old cow

that is so sad.

 

[AnnaC]

Goodness Renee, are you ok - so scarey when flooding is close by! I know you said that it was raining, but never realised that it was that bad! Thank goodness you had the horses close to you and that the river burst away from the house - hope your parents visit is not being upset by too much rain?

I'll second what you say about Cassie, we all know what a sweet person she is.

 

[cassie]

So glad you didn't have to get evacuated Renee!!! N that all your ponies are safe

Thanks both your both very kind n so lovely!!!

And no problem at all Renee!!! You deserved it you have helped me sooooo much through all of this n this was just a little token of thanks

and it was a big birthday!!! Xoxo

 

[Eagle]

Hugs to you both

Yes it was very scary

The boys have turned their pen into a mud bath, you should see the state of them

It hasn't rained here properly for months so 5 days of serious rain has caused havoc. In Genova (not far from here) many people have died and it was a real disaster

The kids are happy as the schools are closed. My poor mum is known as "the rain lady" every time she goes anywhere it rains,

I should have asked her to visit in the summer

 

[MeganH]

Oh Renee I hope you stay safe!! That sounds terrible!

 

[cassie]

Bout to go pull a calf out... Will let you all know how we go... Thinking the calf is dead!!
