Updates!!

It's been awhile since my last post and thought I'd update you on what we have been up to.

We never did have anymore calves so we called the vet out to test the bull. Well after doing her little thing she looked into the microscope and didn't see any sperm. The second sample only showed dead sperm. So there you have it the bull my dad spent good money on is worthless. He had papers from when he bought the bull that proved he was good, but those burnt up in the fire.

Last Saturday we butchered 13 of our chickens. It only took about 5 hours and honestly wasn't too bad. Even Miss Carmen was plucking feathers willingly towards the end of the day. We froze them and haven't yet cooked one. I'll let you know how it tastes. We still have 13 left that we will do here in a week or so.

On Friday Carmen and I went to Omaha with Cordell for his field trip. We toured the Omaha zoo and also watched an Imax movie. This was Carmen's first movie experience and she absolutely loved the 3-D movie, even without the 3-D glasses on! They just opened a new ride up called Skyfari, it's a chairlift type ride that takes you across the park. The kids were a little apprehensive but ended up enjoying it by the time we reached our destination.
