Where to start?

Wow~  We had a blast on our Carnival Cruise line vacation!

My family took a 7 day cruise to Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Cozumel.  We had a fantastic time!  This was the first time we have ever taken a trip over the Thanksgiving holiday.  While we were gone, a few things happened.


The kind neighbor that was taking care of our animals for us found out his mother was very, very ill.  He needed to go and see her quickly.  He didn't know who to find to help out with the animals, so his wife stayed behind and did the job.  However, she is afraid of horses and cows.  That makes for quite a story!

While it was 34 degrees overnight here in Parker, one of the alpacas we decided to watch for another lady, gave birth.  There was a little bit of panic going on our property!  Mind you, we had no telephone or internet access while we were gone.

Hailey and Harrison's poultry projects arrived on our property only days before the entire PISD Ag barn burned to the ground.  Needless to say, my children's poultry projects will be representing all of PISD.  There is so much more that I won't even go into, but you get the idea.  It was CRAZY here!

So, while it was freakishly crazy here while we were gone, our animals are all fine and our house is still in place. 

We had an amazing time and enjoyed the time away.  I am blessed beyond measure with an amazing family!  Praising God for His goodness.
