Enjoying October..

It's been a ..busy month.

Mr. Big Pumpkin....received a new face....

 Mr. Bat....met my the blazer..grill...

Guess he likes it there.....

He has not budged....

 Two people that we love dearly....

Were married.

( Sweetheart and I got to help.....on the Wedding Day! )

A big tent....for the reception....Beautiful!

 Pies....many more stashed in other places....await for the big moment...

 It's almost time.....And yes....they will arrive on sight....in this truck!

..The Bride and her Dad...along with her two sons arrive....

Teary eyes and goosebumps..for me! 

 The wedding was....beautiful.  

We will talk about it....for a long time.

Sweetheart and I...have know the bride....since she was a very small..toddler!

Where does time go!

Meanwhile...

Back at our pasture home...

Every things....normal!

Thank you God...for life....

It is so...wonderful.

A Fall Wedding...Shower

Sweetheart and I ...had the wonderful privilege of hosting a wedding shower....for two very special people.

A big ole pumpkin for the porch....

You know ...being fall and all..... 

A little something special...for the porch...

It belonged to my...very special Grand-Daddy.

If its old....and belonged to someone special....I'll love it..forever!

We have pumpkins in the house too.

Have I ever shared with you the pumpkins that my Daddy....helped me raise...

Love these off colored...rolly-pollie....fruits.  (Or maybe they are vegetables...I'm not sure.)

 This bowl was given to me ...many years ago.

And as fate would have it....it cracked..once I got it.

But

I super glued it...and now its somewhat usable...for dried stuff..you know.

Dried stuff...is so cool.

And this is the ....perfect color..for a fall wedding shower. 

Just a little close-up of...the porch pumpkin.

It's kind of.....large.

And

Loppy-jawed!

I like loppy jawed things! 

 And while I was fortunate enough to have ....blooming roses...

I also have....watermelons...in my flower bed!

Woo-hoo...

From the pasture

Wonderful wedding wishes to our special friends!

Must Be October....

Early morning dew...on early morning web....

The spider had already left for work....so...I eased dropped on his little abode..

 Really...take a close look.

Amazing.

Spider-man would love this....web!

 This is a garden "wanna be".

Hopefully....it will be my winter green garden.

It will take effort on my part...

Effort...Hm....I'll need to look that word up...

October brings...Bitter Weeds...in the pasture..and everywhere.

I kind of like them. Beauty is ..in the eye of the beholder.

Behold...

 The girls come up ....and dodge the Bitter Weed.

Maybe they are bitter....not sure.

I wonder who and why....they were named...Bitter...Weed.

 Buzzards!

October buzzards ...out in the pasture.

I counted around....15.

Just soaring around...enjoying this beautiful fall weather.

For such a large turkey like bird....they are so graceful when they fly.

Mostly they....glide!

After just a few minutes of....gliding..they disappeared...

So someone else could....admire them!

My beautiful..Loyal.

Tip-toeing through the....Bitter Weeds!

(Aged myself on that one...)

The Blood-Moon is tomorrow night...

It should be..awesome!

Prayers for some very special....loved ones...

God is with us ...when we call out to Him...

From the pasture of Bitter-Weeds...

Blessings.

Life In The Fast Lane....In The Pasture Of Course!

 The heavens are ...awesome!

If you need to clear your head of....clutter....just ...look up!

And say....wow!

 I stepped out on my porch this morning....and was greeted by...

her....(I think it's a her...)

I saw her the day before....but her Moma has kept her in...seclusion!

Today must be her coming out...day!

 Oh..hello beautiful....

She is So brave...

She needs to inspect my camera...

This makes her Moma...very nervous....

No doubt she will give her a good talking to about....strangers....

 Late in the day....the girls came up to the pasture in front of our...home.

Not sure which one will be....the queen of this mountain....
Right now...someone is getting their head cleaned...by a tongue....ewwww

 As soon as the big girls came down...someone else...

had to give it a try.....

Hey big one.....

Mountain climbing is....fun!

Mr. Donkey had to try his hand at mountain climbing....when the calf ran down...however..

it was too dark for a picture...so just picture it .... in your head!

The weather man says...our weather is fixing to...change...

Fall will be back for about 15 minutes...

Winter is ...just around the ..corner..

Are you ready?

From the pasture...where new life is happening...again!

Blessings

Make It A Great Day!

 Good Morning....beautiful!

I hear rumors that...there is someone new....in the pasture...

Yep-ee!  This mountain belongs to ...me!

Hi....I'm new around here. 

 Oh....here I go!  Woe....

I'm picking up speed!

 Run....for you life!

 Mean while....back at the farm house....something new appeared on the wall.

It looks like a mosquito hawk....with a very long attachment.

Sleeping in the kitchen.

Just for today....I'll let him finish his Sunday nap.... 

Later I'll remind him that....he belongs ...outside!

Ahh...refreshed and invigorated!

Ready to .....see the world...and chase the new calf!

This is one very spoiled...very loved....pooch!

In many ways...life is getting back to normal...(somewhat)

here in the pasture!

May your beautiful fall days... be blessed!

Pasture Celebrating

 Two special guys.

Two special birthdays....

One little....one not so little!

One... very hot....day.

 New toys...and not so new toys....

A couple of dirt piles...

A pool of cold water....just to cool off...you know...

Barrels would be fun....

Stick a few on top of the piles...let the kiddos figure out what to do....

(And they did)

 Happy Birthday cake inside....

A little dirt want hurt anything.....

 This is straight from the....donkeys mouth....(so to speak)

I'm hopelessly in love with the guys in my life.

When I think of how much God has blessed me.....

I'm totally overwhelmed.

Happy Birthday Sweetheart...

Happy Birthday dear sweet Grand-son.

With all of my heart...

Blessings

I Thought It Would Be So Easy....

 It is like being in a math class all over again.

I should remember.  

But ....I don't.

I seem to be very slow....at figuring out my new computer.

Will I ever figure out what I am doing?.....

Awesome morning sun-rise....right outside our window.

Loyal has a good memory.

He remembers where he has buried ( or hid ) all of his....toys!

Maybe he could learn this new computer.... 

Hello Mr. Donkey.

You are the reason that our porch floor had to be replaced.

Please don't chew on or  paw on our new floor.

And yes.....I have a new computer..

 Loyal...

How can I not ever love you.

Always trying to cheer me....

Forget the new computer...lets go find some more of your buried toys!

A replacement heifer that I've already dubbed...Big Red!

Maybe....just maybe she could help....me ....

Na...

I'll keep trying..

I will not give up...

I'll try to stop whining.....NOT!

Really...I am so grateful for this passed down to me...new computer.

And...I know everyone is right...once I learn how to maneuver it...

It will be much easier and faster.

Fall is starting to happen in the pasture....

From way out here....in the pasture...

Blessings!

Working On A New Computer.....

 Loyal is sharing a little secrete.

His buddy is ...bored.

For days we have had spectacular clouds.

But not productive clouds.

The pasture is...crispy.

We need rain! 

 On Sunday....the thunder started.

A few booms in the weather and...Loyal becomes an attack dog.

 Dark sky's...a little thunder boomers...

and

we hope.....

When a month passes by and there has hardly been any precipitation....

All we need is a few

Dark sky's and.......some day dreaming starts to take place! 

 Go Loyal and  take your friend along.  Maybe the two of you can lasso some rain out of the sky...

 Oh...yea..bring on the rain!

Mr. Bull hoovers under a tree ...as the rain and thunder let loose over our pasture!

This is what we are talking about....1 1/2 inches of....pure delight!

Come back pasture....

Be happy trees and flowers!

You are so beautiful...to me!

From our wet pasture...for now anyway!

Blessings to you..and yours!
