A little update on us!

So this week is Graduation week at our house. No I do not have children graduating, but I do have a step brother graduating High School. He is the last of us kids to graduate high school. So I’ve been a busy beaver this week. I offered to bake cakes for graduation, and I didn’t realize it would be such a task.

I’ve used 8 2lb bags of Powdered Sugar in two days. We bought 4 bags to begin with, and I figured it would be enough. As you seasoned cake experts now laugh at me! We then bought out the little convinces store. I then ran out again. Dad brought over what he had. I ran out again. So this after noon we went back to get a couple more bags. FINALLY I am done making cakes!

So since I didn’t get around to closing the Nifty Nappy Giveaway, I’m going to leave it open for another week!!! Why not? Plus I’m not going to have time to post tomorrow as tomorrow is graduation, and on Sunday I’d like to just relax! It will now end Thursday May 20th.

As far as everything else goes. We had our last calf born the other night. It gives us a grand total of 2 bulls, &  4 heifer calves.  3 black, 2 red, and one smoky grey. So that ends calving season…….and begins/continues breeding season! YAY!

My house is filthy! Worse than the pictures I posted before. There is CLEAN Laundry everywhere. My step sister is in town and before she can even go to bed tonight I have to get 2 loads of unfolded & 3 loads of folded laundry!

So I’d better get my but in gear. It’s 11:34. I’ve been awake since 7:30am with only 3 hours of sleep.

  4. I'm trying to work out how much 2 lbs is, in terms of baby weight, LOL, that's the only thing we use standard measurements for. Everything else is metric. BTW I've given you an award over st my blog :)
