The Day Has Come......
Tuesday, July 21....Cheryl's birthday. When I asked her if she wanted to help with the chickens (I'll spare you the details) she offered to come to our home for fried chicken. It was her birthday!

Happy "50" Birthday to Me!
A few friends (42 friends to be exact) stopped by this weekend to wish me a "happy 50th birthday". I turned a half-a-century old. That's the only time I'm going to say that....I think I prefer what the cake says "49 and holding". A BIG SURPRISE visitor really got me. Kathy and Michael flew in from Austin, TX for my party. I had no idea they were coming. I still did not know when this picture was taken. 
Although I had a "gut feeling" they might be here, Nina was sure to keep the secret. But, Kathy did "tell a lie" when I got her on the phone that morning. She LIED to me about her whereabouts. I have the "bestest" of friends in the whole world. They really LOVE me:
All my cards and gifts! Notice the kissing piggy salt/pepper shakers from my sis in TX; flowers from John/Cheryl's garden and book "Women Turning 50"; painted pony from Nina; red hat and Boyd Bear "Fifty is Nifty" from Kathy/Michael; and a Willow Tree "Angel of Friendship" figure from Kathy/Rob L and my many cards. Not pictured is the hand made walking cane, prunes and vitamins for Women over 50 compliments of Michelle and Don C.

In Memory of Tiger AKA "Six Meters Gone"
It is with much sadness that I write this blog. Today we had to put Tiger down. She had intestinal problems and could not overcome it. She was our AAA mare and leaves a 6 month old filly "Babe" pictured here in January. These animals become our family on the farm.

What We Did While Case Was Here......
Had breakfast:
Rode a horse:
Picked dandelions:
Played in the fountain:
Watch intently while the big people worked the cattle: 
We also went to the rodeo, drove to Estes Park, visited family and had lots of really great moments with Nana!

Flowers from the Garden
Finally.......summer is here and my flowers are in bloom. We've had rain almost every day and the temps in the 80's. Perfect!
