Random Pics

I was able to snap this one just after Matthew had came home from work. Cailin and I had been cleaning up the Ike debris and she found the little stump that she is sitting on.

We rode the 4-wheeler a lot cleaning up the debris. She loves riding.

Cailin did her fair share of raking.

But, she would rather just ride.

Uncle Michael got baby chicks on Friday. She and I had helped put feed out on Wednesday. That consisted of she and I driving the Rhino so the guys could scoop faster. We went back on Friday. She walked in and said, "There are so many of them". And she is right. About 22,000 per house. She would pick one up and play with it for a minute. I guess they liked her pink shoes.

We are all doing good. Matthew has been in Louisville, KY for apprasial training and has to go back again. The leaves have started to fall and we know the change of seasons is here. Our house is very close to the woods and you can hear the deer walking behind the house.

Finally--Pictures!!

Sorry this has taken so long. But you would understand if you were living in my world right now.

Cailin at the Howard County Fair!

Hurricane Ike hits Western KY. This tree is in the backyard.
This is our front yard. We were out of power for a few hours. There are still lots of people out around here. The crops took a beating. Some of the corn was laid on the ground. Matthew has been on the chain saw every evening till dark trying to cut up the limbs. Cailin and I have been loading what we can on the trailer behind the 4 wheeler, which she loves to ride. Her and Belle have learned there places on the 4 wheeler. Today, the front yard looks great! Back yard--not so great.

We've moved!

It's been a while since I was able to update and our lives have turned upsidedown. Matthew accepted a job in Mayfield, Kentucky. He started July 28th. Cailin and I didn't get to move over until Labor Day weekend. We lived with Mattew's brother for a week until our home was vacated and we could get it cleaned. Monday night was our first night here. That was the best night sleep in months. Cailin is adjusting very well. I'm staying home right now. Maybe that helps. We got the house sold in Arkansas. Closing is tomorrow. WooHoo!! Let's hope that everything goes off without a hitch. Sorry no pictures right now. I'll work on that once everything is unpacked!!
