It's actually been getting quite cold here. Low 30's at night is pretty darn good for this place. Though it was pretty warm again yesterday...I think it got up around the low-mid 70's.
I've got a chore on my hands today. Starting the kids up full force in school work...they had a lax week last week and rather enjoyed it a little too much, LOL. We did do some really neat science experiments with radish seeds. It will be a continuing occurance through the rest of the month.
Tall Girl has been really handling Napoleon well. I actually switched her to the regular hackamore...poor girl was just having to work too hard riding him in a plain halter. She is really wanting to take him out in the pasture to ride...but not yet. I need to ride him out there to see how he reacts. She's also been learning to hop on him bareback from the ground. That's funny to watch! But she did it yesterday with very little help from me. I'm sure she'll get it. She's a determined girl.
Christmas gifting is almost done. I need to start wrapping gifts. I hope everyone likes their little gifts though. I try hard to pick out neat things or to make useful things for people...
Oh, well...gotta run now. The farm needs feeding, the kids are going to want breakfast here shortly, and I've got to work on getting a bunch of ink out of some nice clothes.
***NOTE to SELF: Wash husbands work pants separate...that way the pen he stuck in his pocket will get ink all over them instead of our clothes too! Especially the cute little skirt my mom just sent me!
