This video is for you Grandpa Larry, Grandpa Steve, and anyone else who is interested. This is one of Randy's recent designs to install an underground electric dog fence. In one evening he put wire around our 5 acres and around the neighbors 5 acres.
I'm really thinking I see an underground sprinkler system in our future. ;)
We didn't break for it and leave town. We just stayed put and enjoyed a break at home. It's just what we needed. Here are the top twelve things we did for Spring Break (not necessarily in order)...
#12-Burned the burn pile.
#11-Spent a couple nights camping out in the basement! #10-Looked at airplane magazines with Daddy. #9- Put together puzzles and played Monopoly (required a little patients from Mommy).
#8- A trip to the library and lots of books to read. #7-Cleaned out chicken coop and got 14 new baby chicks.
#6- Worked on the tractor with Dad in the garage. (after exhausting all other methods, this stubborn metal part finally had to be cut off with a dremel tool!)
#5-Had a play day with some special friends.
#4-Decorated Eggs as a family.
#3-A fun Easter Egg party at Dave, Denay and Caitlyn's #2-Lunch one day at a Mexican restaurant with Grandpa and Grandma.
and #1- Seeing the baby pigs at the pig farm! (pictures to come... tomorrow)
That pretty much sums up our spring break. Here are a few more pictures...
*52 Weeks is a year long challenge for YOU to be in a picture once a week for 52 weeks. We are always the ones behind the camera, this is YOUR chance to get out in front and be in the pictures with your family. We are glad you are joining this challenge. More importantly your family will really enjoy having you in the picture. Thanks for playing along! Oh, you can just jump in now with 1 of 52, you're not getting off that easy! Now go take a picture!
When Daddy let me drive. A piece of my childhood will never be forgotten.

Colter got to drive the tractor on it's way into our garage for repairs. Now it's sitting up on blocks waiting for some parts. It's such a great old tractor...
Randy put the 8N to work moving the chicken coop from in front of the garage to the side of the house. When the chickens don't need the heat lamp anymore, he will move it out to the pasture. The tractor made this job so much easier.
