Sometimes taking a moment to reflect, to make yourself look
at the big picture can be such an eye opener. To learn to appreciate everything
and everyone around you can change your outlook on life. The world is not out
to get you even though it may feel like it some days, everything happens for a
reason. You just have to be open minded enough to figure out and understand
those reasons.
This past weekend I helped host a stagette for my husband’s cousin’s
fiancé. A day at the spa, silly clothes, and games with friends that love and cherish
each other and are there to share the event that marks a milestone in people’s
lives. Getting married was one of the best things I’ve done in life. At the
start it felt like nothing had changed and it was perfect time for us to get married but really didn’t
do anything, as we already loved and enjoyed each other and planned to spend our
lives together. As our 1 year anniversary is coming up soon in June, I realize
how much more love I have grown for him and our life together. How the families
we have gained have shared so much love and happiness with us, along with the
emotional attachment and comfort level it is so nice to have between both sides
of the family. If you learn to appreciate each blessing, you learn everyday
there are moments that can take your breath away.
Garnet just bought our very first livestock trailer, a
beautiful trailer! I’m so spoiled. We both are like little kids with a new toy,
we love to look at it and make sure it stays clean. The best part to me is
because we both are so proud of it and the first time we used it we got to use
it together to go check pastures. Perfect way to break it in! (Don’t let the small things pass by
unnoticed)
The seed is in the ground and we are excited to have our
first crop in the ground! This will be our first year experiencing first hand
benefits and risks of being a farmer! We also hope to grow our cattle herd a
bit more and just enjoy all the experiences that come with it.
Nothing beats good horses, cattle, dogs, family &
friends!
