Rain and more rain coming!!!!!


Hello sweet ladies..........what a night. Thunder, lightning and tons of rain!!!!!!!!! So thankful for the rain though. 

This storm started coming for our farm........we had to take off later in the day from the farm. The clouds were swirling around to the west. We don't have a storm shelter......some day I hope we will!!!!!!!

This morning I took Birch out to a different pen where........



 a rooster and his wifey hen live. Birch will be safer in this pen. It is the pen he and his Momma Sweet Magnolia lived. The little hen is so cute.....I want her to start laying her eggs in the pen. Anyway it was raining so hard, but it was  beautiful! Love rain! It has been sometime since we have had it here on the farm! 


Willow and her lambs were waiting to be fed! The wind was blowing so hard while out feeding and rescuing my teenage chickens. 

We got between 5 1/2" to 6", wonderful!!!!!! The garden drank it up! It will take off growing now that it got some of  God's water! Nothing like it........course the weeds will have some fun also, but I will take care of them! The frogs and bull frogs are out in the fields croaking away! Lovely sound for sure!


I am working in the house some today. ORGANIZATION going to be happening. Unpacking from the trip.....sweeping the floors.....washing my own dishes and not the colleges. Yahoo!!!!!! Feels so good! Home is a precious place to be with my family.......and we can stay up late and not worry about getting up at 5 in the morning! Now that is a deal! Even though this summer I will still be getting up early......lots to get done on the farm! 

Love you sweet friends, 

Linda

  5. We had a bit of rain but nothing like you are getting and I am praying for Oklahoma. They have been hard hit! Such a sad time for their state although I know they are so strong and will survive. Hugs, Anne
