We have added 2 New additions to our family. Our granddaughter, Mollie-Jayne was born on April 4th.
We also got a new sheltie puppy.
Her name is Sadie and she’s quite a sweetheart.
This is Sadie’s mom, Sophie.
We thought it was perfect her mom’s name is Sophie since that was the name of our smooth collie that has been missing since October when we were harvesting corn in Harrold, SD
We’ve put in lots of hours this month. We were only able to plant a partial crop at home due to the late spring and wet conditions. It’s been pretty crazy this week. We picked up our camper on Sunday afternoon and had it ready to go by Tuesday. Monday was a crazy day and couldn’t end soon enough. I brought Sadie & Peaches to the vet for shots about 90 minutes away. I noticed bloody paw prints on the vets floor. Sure enough, our Peaches was bleeding – broke her rear middle claw and had to be sedated so it could be clipped back. She’s doing good now but has always hated her feet being touched so she will probably have to remove her own bandage.
We finally made it home around noon to resume loading the camper. Around 1:45 I hear a blood curdling scream out of Brett. I knew it was bad – he had his thumb slammed into the hinge side of the screen door on the camper. I called our doctor and of course they thought I should bring him in for an X-ray just in case it was broken. We spent the rest of the day in the ER. Everything turned out to be fine and it was a good thing it had bled so it wouldn’t throb.
We have headed south and are harvesting wheat and canola in Oklahoma now. The crops aren’t yielding very good in Oklahoma. The winter wheat has been affected by storms, drought and freezing temperatures at the wrong time.
