Uneventful

I had a pretty uneventful day. I had a sandwich for dinner with cucumbers from the garden and fruit left over from Sunday. I also made those Jello/Yogurt delicious things. They taste so good. They goats were really happy today, they had a lot of energy, maybe because they were stuck inside all day yesterday due to the rain. Good luck with your Zombies Robin, I am excited to see it. I hope that Karen had a good time at school. Vickie called me today and she had a good time at the U. She said that her dorm rooms are far away from campus. It is just a big campus. She said that their are a lot of older cute guys in the bountiful ward, that would be fun for Karen. Well have a good night.

Love
Rachel

About Time

I think it is about time they finally gave you a job. 4 months is a long time to wait to give someone a calling. You will have to make it a really cute newsletter. Good luck Karen on your class I am so excited for you. Thanks Rachel and Casey for coming down for dinner. I thought it was a lot of fun. The rain was great. It started to rain again about 10 minutes after you left. I am going to Jay's son viewing tomorrow and then the graveside service. I thought I should do that. Dad has a dentist appointment at 8:00 so I am going with him on that one also. I guess I will fit work in there somewhere. Have a great Monday.

Run faster

Robin, you are going to have to start running faster. They usually start with small callings and then they suck you into bigger ones. I had a good day. I didn't have church so I took a nap, went for a walk, watched a movie, and stuff like that. It was very relaxing. I hope that you guys had a good time with Jed and Teresa at dinner. My class starts tomorrow, wish me luck. I am excited for it. Have a good one

they got me....

So they tackled me at church and gave me a calling. i'm the newsletter girl. whooo. I guess its one of the better ones but i still think i can achieve a lazier calling. Well I like your goat dish rachel/casey. I'm sure that your goats will be fully hydrated at all times. :) I'm sorry you got soaked karen, but I've been there to many times to not laugh. Its all karma, i believe. Once you buy a umbrella it stops raining so your wet and holding a dry umbrella. unfair. Its like being able to find the only patch of black ice, I have a honing skill for stuff like that. Well I hope you guys have fun in the water with everyone. Apparently the fall is coming, all canadians are a'boot there weather. I guess you kinda have to be when it changes so much. anyway enjoy the sun.

Sunday

I forgot all about writing on the blog last night. I guess I just got running. Jed and Teresa are coming for dinner so I went and got food and dad decided to go to a movie. We went and saw Unit 9. It was an interesting movie. Kind of set up like office where everyone gives there opinion and then they show the movie. I liked it. It was different than I thought it was going to be. Grandma and Grandpa are doing better. Dad was better so that was good. I just keep thinking that in two weeks we are going to be traveling in Canada. It just doesn't seem real. Robin I found the cape so I will bring that with me. Have a great Sunday with no church.

Best laid plans

Well we had a good weekend. We were planning to go camping on Saturday and Come back Sunday after meeting up with Jed and Teressa but Casey worked on a drainage system for the goat water and his back hurt from digging the trench so we didn't think that it would be good to have him sleep on the ground. We are still going down to see Jed and Teressa and Mom and Dad today. When I woke up this morning it had been raining so I am glad that we didn't go. I guess that it all worked out.

Casey put in a drainage system for the goats on Friday. Here are some picture of the drainage system that Casey did. His idea was to have water contently pouring into a bowl for the goats, then he put a pipe in the middle of the bowl so when it reached a certain height then it will drain out. So he dug a trench from the stable to the pasture so all the extra water will help water it.

Here is the water bowl, he used an old green one because he didn't want to ruin the blue one in case it didn't work.


Here is the trench


It works really good and it is really nice. He did a good job. It will be really nice for the goats. Well I guess that we are all getting rained on. Stay dry and have a good day

Monday

 I had a quiet day. I got laundry done and just hung out. It felt nice. I sure had a fun weekend. Thanks everyone for giving dad a nice birt...
