Our lovely little farm just got plowed today and we will get some seeds in have some hay start growing! Look at us go!
Also the first flower of spring popped up this week, and I was thrilled! We have tons of flower beds around our property and i'm so excited for them to start blooming! They'll need quite a bit of work but it'll still be fun! I called penny over to show her the new flower and literally 2 seconds after i took this picture, she chomped it.
Jessie and Jack are bffs and it's been so fun having horses! I can't wait till they're old enough to ride. Jessie is the sweetest thing, she comes when i call and loves to be pet. Jack is kind of a little turd, but he has come a longggg way. Jon will make him a great horse :)
Penny and Copper are living the high life. They roam free and have an endless supply of mice to chase, which usually results in a very dirty penny.
But that's what baths are for (which she loves) not.
Our little kitty cracks me up. Sometimes I call her pocket because she likes to sleep in my hoodie pocket, or in my coat. but mostly I just call her kitty. She is an outside cat but absolutely lovessss me.
She follows me around like a dog whenever I'm outside, and when i try to come back inside she chases me and i have to run and shut the door really quick otherwise she tries to run in the house. She's adorable, yet hideous. I like her.
At first penny really didn't like her and would chase her and bite her lots. Copper did nothing, she was still scared of him though.
They all get along pretty good now though.
The purpose in getting her was to catch all the mice we have around. We haven't really had any more problems with them in the house now that copper has become the master mouse catcher. One day I came home and there were 11 dead mice in my back yard. He's like the ultimate mouser. People say you should have young cats stay around older cats so they can learn to mice, but i think i'll just keep her around copper, cuz he obviously knows what he's doing!
She is still too little catch anything but today i showed her dead mouse and she had a ball! Hopefully she will start hunting.
In other news- Jon and I got new jobs! what?? me? a new job? I know right.
I've been working at the preschool and haven't really been loving it, plus I make pretty much nothing. So a few months back I starting looking for a new job and interviewed for a medical receptionist job. Unfortunately I didn't get it so I just kind of stopped looking because i was tired of Job hunting. The school year was almost over anyway so I just figured I'd stick it out till summer. Well the other day the clinic called me back and offered me a job! So I jumped on it. Jon also got a new job. HIP HIP HOORAY!!! He is going to design pivots for irrigation systems which is awesome! No idea how he got that job because he doesn't have a degree and really has no experience in that but he rocked his interview and once again proved he can literally do anything. I love having an awesome husband. anyway the cool part is we will work pretty much the same hours and we only work like 10 min apart! So we will carpool to work together and it'll be great! such a blessing!
Okay last thing. In october I bought a camera on a local classifieds ad just because I felt like it and photography was something I kind of always wanted to do. Well i never did anything with it and Then in march I felt like I should start trying so I posted on another local classifieds page that I was looking to start a portfolio and was offering free shoots. well the response was huge! I booked my whole month up in like a week and here are some of my favorites so far:)

"I feel like I could run a marathon right now!...if I didn't have to use my legs."
"I've been telling a lottt of dead people jokes today"
"THIS is why I could not be a drug addict! I'm too concerned with cleanliness. I'd be like, did you sterilize this needle?!"
"I feel like I could squeeze your hand hard enough to break all your bones."
"I support you with all of my heart, and none of my body."
"You could sing that.. America song.. the one they sing at the beginning of stuff"
and my personal favorite-
"If you're going to sin, make it count."
Later gator!
