News from the Ranch

We have been busy fencing. We just completed fencing a 3rd pasture. The goat herd has amazingly cleared out the 2nd pasture. There is nothing green left from the ground to a height of about 4 feet. Our neighbors are beginning to clear out their side of the fence row. We figure they must want to see the beautiful goat herd. Either that or they are excited about finally being able to see through the fence row to the open pasture. It will be a nice and extending view for them.

Konrad is not working so much overtime these days. This is really throwing me for a loop. I keep asking, "Aren't you going to work tonight?" and when he says no I am continuously surprised. We are enjoying having him home and he is enjoying getting work done around the ranch.

We were so glad to hear that Uncle Grant and his family made it through hurricane Ike with no major damage. We, however, had some wind damage. We thought the strong winds had passed but evidently we were wrong. Now we can add 'Glass for patio table' to our project list.



Konrad got a new TV for his birthday. Thought you might like to see a picture of it.

It is a 42" flatscreen. We got a good price on it.

KC started back to school. This is a picture of his first day. He is doing well and is working on learning to write letters, he is currently working on the letter C. He is also in AWANA Cubbies at church and is memorizing scripture so feel free to quiz him. Also, we are not sure who taught him, (probably Dr. Sandy) but he can correctly identify several states-and can tell us who lives in that state.
