No luck

I am getting quite frustrated with this loading of pictures business because it is not working! Since blogs without pictures aren't quite nearly as fun, I hope this won't be too boring. So, what have we been up to? Darin's parents left a while back, it was a good visit and it is always fun to have family visit, so they can have a glimpse into our life. Since then, we have been trying to get back into the swing of things, it is working, but with working on a ranch and at a church, there really isn't a normal day. Sometimes, I think that both Darin and I long for the hours of a 9-5 job, but then we realize that a lot of what we do, couldn't get done like that. We also wouldn't get to see each other nearly as much and we wouldn't be able to do random things at random times because we would have to worry about the schedule.

Last Monday was Darin's birthday and we were going to go to Sea World, but the cows had different plans for Darin's birthday. They went visiting to our neighbors property on Sunday night, so Darin spent a lot of Monday fixing our neighbor's fence. So, we made his birthday a two day birthday and went to Sea World on Tuesday instead. It was so much fun, a whole day to hang out the two of us, while doing things other that work! The shows were very enjoyable and the sea lions were our favorites by far. It was a great day and I am glad that we were able to go, even if it wasn't the day that we planned to go.

The rest of the week was filled with horses, church and ranch work. This week has started with much craziness because we are having a problem keeping the sheep alive up at Josh and Katie's. They recently bought a small herd of sheep to keep their grass down while they are gone. They started with 40 and last count we got was around 30, something is eating them, which is very sad indeed. Darin sat out some last night, but was unable to shoot the predator, hopefully that will happen soon and the scared little sheep can sleep soundly.
