Recalls

As some of you know I work part time at a feed and farm supply store. Yesterday, I got a call from one of our distributors wanting to know the lot numbers on our 16oz bovine eye wash from vetericyn. He told me that there was a recall and he needed to check the product we had in the store. Since, I am not the cattle expert at the store, I gave him the lot number and did not ask any questions. I cannot give any more details as I do not have them but I figured I would give a small "heads up" to those of you who may have cattle and use the product. Hope this helps someone!

Future Blogs

My goodness...This is the craziest time of year ever!!! I still have to take Jacob to see Santa, finish buying all my Christmas gifts, and then get them all wrapped. Not to mention, I am working and trying to get horses ready for upcoming shows and futurities. I have so many great things to write about just wish I had more time to sit down and do it. I have been crafting some and I want to share some pictures of that, I want to post about my hometown, Jacob, animal feeds, and some other livestock products. I will get to it ASAP.

4H

Most of you that know anything about me know that I am involved in with our local 4H club. 4H was a part of my life when I was younger and I feel that I am a better person because of it. Because of that I feel like I should give back to a program that gave so much to me. I volunteer with a horse club in Lexington. I am not the leader although I probably should be I just do not feel like I have the time to devote to the program in order to give the children what they really need so an amazing lady named Julie Harmon is the leader and she is doing a SUPERB job! This is only her first year and the club's first year and so far things are going great! Last week we had our Christmas party. We had a weenie roast and spent some time on the horse since during our regular meetings we spend time drilling facts into their heads and not riding all the time. We did some bareback work and then we played games. We had a rescue the snowman race and then a wheelbarrow race-which I have never done before. I must say we had a blast! Here are just a few pictures from the festivities!

Happy Holidays!

Christmas

Well it is December 14-only 11 days till Christmas. I have barely started Christmas shopping and Jacob has not seen Santa yet this year-I plan on doing that this weekend. Yes, I am aware I am slack. If it was not for my mother, I would not have a tree up yet either. It is such a pain to have a tree up. Jacob wants to touch it and take the ornaments off and run down the hall-it is hilarious to watch, but a pain to deal with. Since he is napping right now, I decided to take a quick picture of the tree to share before he gets into it again tomorrow. Hope you are more prepared and ready for Christmas than I am!

New Website

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will continue to be here until the end of the month but starting in 2012 there are huge changes on the way. I am going to transfer my blog and website to another host and do everything together so I am not so spread out. I am starting to work on things now and wow I am so excited. Can't wait until January 1 to unveil the new blog and site.

Happy Birthday

This Friday was my mom's mother's 79th birthday. G (as I call her)/ G-G (what Jacob calls her) is the reason my life is the way it is. She is the person responsible for buying my first horse and horse trailer for me. Without her love and support, I never would have the life that I have now. My parents would have NEVER EVER bought me a horse. I owe this woman so much. She is one of my heros. She is 79 still lives by herself, drives everywhere, is a member of her church, a cancer survivor, and an avid crafter. She is so independent-I hope I can still be going as well as she is when I am that age. Jacob has so many hand-made sweaters and caps. She also makes me hats and scarves each year so I can be outdoors giving lessons and working horses and still look cute :)!

G-G with Jacob when he was 4 days old!

December 5

Hope everyone had a great Monday! Wow my day was busy. It did not go quite like I planned. It was supposed to rain Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday this week so I had riding lessons scheduled today. Low and behold-it started pouring about 9:00 this morning. So I cancelled my lessons I decided to stay at work all day. I stayed busy!!! I got contracts done, employee calendars done, invoices separated, a deposit made, tags put in the system, and made pricing changes-I will talk more about my job another day but that is enough for now. Then when I left work I came home a did horsey chores (always my favorite). That was just a bit about my day but my post today is actually about my family.
I have been married to a super awesome man for almost two years. Chet is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I have always been an uptight no fun stick in the mud and Chet is the EXACT opposite. He is fun loving and carefree. If you are around Chet 98% of the time you have a huge smile on your face.
Jacob is our 13 month old son. He is my world. I was always the one that was not sure about kids but now that I have one I could not imagine my life without him. I hope one day he will be my little cowboy but that is a long way off. Here are a few pictures of my wonderful family.

Day 2/4

LOL. Well it is only the fourth day of the month and I have already missed two days of posting. Wow I'm not doing very well. In my defense-the two days I missed were weekend days and I was so busy! We went out of town and spent the weekend with my husband's family. I had a great time seeing everyone! Everything will be back to normal tomorrow and you can expect a post everyday this week! Hope you had a great weekend!

Day 1!

Starting next year I am really going to stay on top of my website and blog. This year I have been completely slack. In order to get myself prepared to keep stuff updated and keep things interesting I will be doing a post a day for the month of December. So be prepared-by the end of the month you will know me, my family, and of course my horses (who knows what all I will post about). But tonight I am sitting here watching the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo and rooting for a few folks I know so I don't have time to write a really good post. Tomorrow I will start by really introducing myself.  Hope everyone has a great night!
