Tragedy on the Farm!

Last week we noticed that Dusty (Jacob's puppy) had not been around the house for a few days so we started doing some looking and asking neighbor's and sure enough...one of the neighbor's found her on the side of their house....Dusty had gone to doggy heaven. We told Jacob that Dusty ran a way which managed to settle okay with him except he continues to ask when she is coming home.

Well this weekend, a coon managed to get into our chicken and duck house and managed to kill 2 ducks and 1 chicken. OUCH!! How do I explain that one?? Jacob was not home this weekend so he doesn't know yet.

Life on a farm........

New Hobby!!

Okay so I have discovered another (theraputic) hobby. I know, like I need another one on top of family, scrapbooking, school, work, and Mary Kay but hey......its fun!!!

I got into scrapbooking a year ago or so just to scrapbook life happenings and I love it!!! Well now my wonderful friend, Angie, has introduced me to Stampin Up! card making and crafts. You can do so many different things with it from card making to scrapbooking to party favors to goodie bags to gift tags.....the possiblities are endless.

Isn't this gorgeous? It amazes me every time I make a card.

Pictures of the light of my life!!!

Okay so here are some pictures of Jacob as promised.

This picture was taken at Easter. He smiles just like his mommy!!















































Here is a picture of him with one of our new baby ducks. He loves to pet them but he will not hold them.

Here is the most recent on of Jacob taken a few weeks ago. His face just cracks me up!! Him and his attitude!!!!!!!!! They grow up way to fast. I wish I had my little baby back.

Welcome Family & Friends!!

I have created a blog site for all of our family and friends who we are not able to see and talk to all the time. This way everyone can stay up to date with what is happening in Brad, Rachel, & Jacob's life. As almost everyone knows by now, I divorced a year ago and now I have the most wonderful man in the world in mine and Jacob's life, Brad Heimericks. Jacob thinks the world of him and he absolutely adores Jacob. Well with that being said.....on to the good stuff.

It is that time of year again...Hay Season!!! So Brad and the boys are busy in the fields while Jacob and mom are busy in the pool! Oh, and of course we all BBQ alot.

Brad just bought a house in Henley and may I say it is beautiful. We have put alot of hard work into it but it is home. FINALLY! We have 7 acres, 3 ducks, 2 chickens, and a puppy. We are just a farm family all the way around!! Jacob loves it. It is his job to feed and water them all and by golly he doesn't forget.

I promise I will post pictures soon!!

Well that is it for now......It sure is A WONDERFUL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
