A post from the Past: June 5, 2008 - My son Weds

June 5, 2008   My son gets married.

For my user name on my first blog I picked idaho_bound because my goal is to move to Idaho before the year is over. My son, his wife and some of my family live there. I am in So. Calif. where a lot of family live too.

I just need a big change in my life after loosing my daughter last year and my husband several years ago. I have my granddaughter living with me and I think it would be good for her to live in a small town.
We will have to adjust to colder weather. I think we will be ok. I get tired of the summers here that are over 100 degrees.

Here she is at the mall in Idaho with her cousin.
My grandkids Peanut and Bryan.

 

And here I am with my kids in Idaho. The son on the left just got married and we are getting ready to go to the church.


Here is Bryan and Peanut, Bryan is dressed for the wedding but Peanut is not. She got ready at the church since her dress is white. In the background you can see my son Dustin the groom and my other grandson Trevor.



Here is the little guy, Trevor. 16 months old.

We are having a very good time up here in Idaho. It doesn't even feel as cold as I though it would. To me it doesn't feel any colder than when it gets cold at my house. Maybe it is the length of the winters here that starts to get to people.

For now I am loving this weather and snow. Everything is all white, and clean looking. Peanut is having so much fun. She totally gets tired out after playing in the snow for a while. The first day she went out about 3 times. Then she came in and took a nap.

Here we are outside having fun.











We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
May the love of Jesus bring you the greatest joy, the sweetest peace, and the highest hope!

I haven't written in a while.  Today was Valentines Day so Peanut and I headed up to "The Ranch".  At least it use to be my chicken ranch.  Now my son and his wife are buying it and building a house on it. The chickens are gone and the chicken buildings are taken down.  My kids have put up corals, and a small chicken coop for their pretty barred Rock hens and some brown hens.

They had 2 horses but as of today they have one.  She is a sweet horse that Anne (my daughter in law) is training for riding.  Anne has a gift with horses.

It snowed at The Ranch yesterday and last week up to 2 feet. Can you believe it? Snow in So. California?  But they are nestled in the foothills there and it gets cold.  So today was sunny and the snow had melted. There was mud everywhere.  Peanut was having so much fun playing but she was a mud ball.  My 2 grandsons aka her cousins were there.

There is a new addition to the family.  Yesterday Roland and Anne brought home 2 Barbado sheep.  She called them Hair Sheep.  They do not have the kind of hair that you would shear.  They have hair like a goat. But they are sheep.  I heard Virgil Baa.  Yes, they are boys and their names are Virgil and Wyatt.  They are only 2 weeks old right now.  Since they are boys they will get horns that curl around.  They will get big like a regular sheep.
They are being bottle fed so that they will be super tame. Virgil and Wyatt (Earp) will be pets. They won't be for meat.  So that is why the will be hand fed and cuddled.
Here are the pictures of these cute little boys with their new parents, (my kids) Anne & Roland:
