Surprise, surprise!

Last night was rather windy.. ok, not 'rather' but extremely windy.  This is typical spring weather around here, though, so we were used to it.  However, one thing did surprise us during this wind storm.

It had blown all night long.  When I occasionally woke up (I was actually feeling very sick last night, but I am feeling much better this morning.. Whew!), the wind was howling around the house something awful.
When I woke up this morning, lo and behold we had SNOW on the ground!!!!  It was crazy.  I guess all those dark clouds, which had been sprinkling rain that afternoon, decided to get cold and dump snow instead.  It was kind of funny. ;-)

Any how, just wanted to say howdy to all of you.. lol!

I will be doing a post about our bull sale, just so you know and don't despair (yes, I am flattering myself thinking you would despair if I didn't post it.. ha!).  We have just been having some Internet problems, again, so I can't load pictures.  I will be lucky if I can get this published! ;-)

Off to drama and hope all of you are having a wonderful day!!  Please just pray we don't blow away..  or we may be visiting some of you who are East of us.. lol!

In Christ's Service,
Sarah

We got the winds and the snow here, too. And boy, have the temperatures dropped!

If you do get blown away, take a hang-glider with you: you'll get much more out of the experience. ;)

Brooke,
Okie doke! I'll do my best not to blow it in your direction.. lol!

Ell,
Yeah, no kidding! Thanks! I am too.. :) Drama went well. It is so much fun. ;) We laughed a LOT today... *wink*!

Ink Slinger,
Yup, it got cold enough that Josh is building a fire right now! (in the fire place, of course.. lol!)

Ok.... yeah. NOPE!!! I don't think I would do very well in those! Maybe the flying part would be fun, but landing would be were my grace-less actions would show up.. yeah. ;)

We usually have windstorms as well. This year alone we have had three of them, but thankfully we have not blown away. Hope everyone is safe out there. :)

In Christ,
Joshua :)

Ick, windstorms. I don't like em, but hey, sometimes they bring rain (or snow in our case!), which is always welcome.
One time last year, the wind was blowing so badly that it ripped a piece of metal off of a building and flung it across the corrals. It is a good thing we weren't out there working cows or we could have been seriously hurt.. yikes.

Thanks for the comment! :)
