Done!

Last night Dad and I finally finished combining the sunflowers! Yipee! Here is a video that Cora took of us combining:

My Birthday!

Hi All! 

 Well, I am officially 19 years old! Time sure does fly, doesn't it?  This morning, seeing as around here people always get off of chores on their birthdays, I was delegated to go pick up the Azure order in Dawson while the rest of the family did chores...  So much for time off! :-) I drove my pickup, so it wasn't that bad. ;-)

 Here are a few pictures of my presents:

 Mom gave me a bunch of Rare Earth Magnets from K and J Magnetics, including a 1"x1"x1" cube. That thing has an increadable 95 lbs of pull strength!

 Jacob gave me a really cool BRIGHT YELLOW wireless mouse for my computer. THANKS JACOB!

 At lunch time, Cora gave me "The Andy Griffith Show: The Official 4th Season" on DVD, and "Monopoly: The Card Game".

Thanks Cora! (Still wondering what's in those other 2 packages... ;-)  )

 We played a couple games of Monopoly: The Card Game, and I won them both! Hmmm, must be my birthday...  Soo far, the day has been very happy!

Remodeling my room...

I have been waiting for a certain package to arrive via FedEx, and it finally came yesterday! Of course, I had to help dad with spreading manure untill lunch time, so I didn't have a chance to open it till then. (Our FedEx man usually arrives about 10:00 AM) Anyway, here is a picture of my computer room before it got 'Renovated' --

 And here is a picture of the new addition:

 I haven't ever had an LCD monitor before, so it is a big step up from my HUGE old CRT! Now I am writing in style. :-)

 More later,

Early Birthday gifts.

Hi all! I am back once again, thought it was about time I let everybody know what is going on around here. :-) 

 It is already the first of November, and my brother's and my birthdays are fast approaching! Where does time fly to?
 This year, for our birthdays, Dad decided he wanted to get us started hunting phesants. But, seeing as we didn't have any shotguns, or any experience, he took us up to Bismarck last Wed. and we all went to Scheels. We came home with 2 new shotguns, 2 cases of shells, and a case of clay targets! :-)  Dad, Jacob and I went out and practiced shooting both Friday afternoon, and yesterday, which was a lot of fun. And we actually hit most of them! :-)

 Last night, Cora decided to give Jacob an early birthday present too. What was it? The DVD "The Widow's Might"




This is an AWESOME video! It was produced by a group of homeschoolers, on a very minimal budget, and with very little previous experience. I can not say enough about the CHRISTIAN morals in the story, the PHENOMENAL amount of effort put into the production of this video, the AMAZING job that these kids did in their acting, and the VIDEOGRAPHY\3D EFFECTS were great! I can not say enough about this video! If it were made in Hollywood, I don't think the video could have been put together better, and I KNOW the morals wouldn't have been there!
 If you are looking for a good, Christian, family friendly video, THIS IS IT! I would even recommend it above the popular "Facing the Giants", or "Fireproof", or even "Come What May."
 There is a reason it took the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival's  Audience Choice award, AND the Best of Festival award, (With the $101,000 prize!)
 Overall, I would reccomend this video to ANYBODY!

 I guess you can probably tell that I enjoyed watching it last night, right? :-)

 Today, we are planning on moving our stock cows home from the summer pasture, so we will probably have pictures of that on our blogs soon...

 Have a good day!
