New Tractor

The day after Easter Mom and Dad came down to visit and bring us the new "old" tractor that Dad found for us. Mom spent the time cleaning all the house windows! It was much appreciated...I have no pics of that...but I have lots of the tractor! It was a big event. Dad and Cody disced up the field to our West and planted grass/oats etc...in it to hopefully have more pasture for the horses.




Brodie checkin' it out!

About to unload the new "old" tractor.

Inspection of the new specimen!

And old hand teaching a new hand new tricks.

Gettin' the hang of it.

Grandpa Horace takin' the tractor for a spin and disc up the alfalfa field to our West.

Look at him go! Brings back memories! I think he enjoyed it...maybe a little!

Cody farmin' too...he had to watch the seasoned hand first.

We celebrated Easter with Grandma Trapp and Auntie Sasha. Grandpa Trapp had to stay in ND and haul sand during the floods.

Here's Brodie's first Easter Egg hunt! He had a great time!

Fun with Sepia

I am posting a few of my favorite photos from the past week or so....I love sepia and I love photography.....although I am not very good at it. I would love to take a course someday!

Here are a few random photos from our new property! We have 15 acres, a barn, a lean to, a shed and a rambler ranch house with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a finished basement! And a DISHWASHER!!! Yeah! Inside pics will have to come later!
Here is a few of a windbreak of evergreens on the east side of our property. This is also our pasture.

Wow! We are a whole month behind! It's been a bit stressful! We finally closed on our property in town for sale and on the property in the country that we bought! After a fiasco on the weekend we were supposed to close, we were able to close on Tuesday the 3rd of March. Thanks to family and wonderful friends who helped us move Tuesday night and Wednesday day! We couldn't have done it without you! As soon as I find my camera, I will take photos to post. We are very excited about our rambler, barn and 15 acres~ Come on Spring!!!
