Born in a barn......

Merry CHRISTmas from our family to yours!!  As I sat taking a break tonight I noticed another friends post on facebook..... it read "remember the babe "born in a barn"   talk about humbling..... my savior came and was born in a barn.... they laid him the cattle's feeder, no fancy bed for him.  Wow and at times we complain about this or that.  It is really humbling........

So, in the morning as we head back out to the barn to milk the cows and goats, feed the calves, cows, ducks ect.... it will have a little different outlook.  What a better place to spend a little time to remember where that first Christmas took place......  Merry Christmas!

Deer Season

We (the guys) worked hard getting the corn off so they could enjoy deer season.  And that they did!  Here are a few pictures of the big ones! 

Opening day Liza got this 6 point!!  This was her first year hunting!  She got to share the joy of it with her Bumpa!  She was out in the blind with him!  The best part for her was that Bumpa got to dress it out for her!!

Then Daddy and M went out hunting together.  M shot her 5 point and they waited a few minutes to leave the blind and Daddy saw this big 8 point so he decided to get his while he was at it!!

Abby went out hunting also, she got a doe.  Ben didn't get anything during firearm, just during early doe when he got 2 of them!. Needless to say we (hubby again!) spent the next few days out cutting them up with one of our hired men!  I am sooooo thankful for all his help!   Liza and I  had to grind the hamburger, make the sausage, bag it, and can some when it was brought in.  As fast as it is going I think we are going to have to get a few more.  Glad most of the family likes it~
