My Day

by Everett C. O'Connor

Today, I grew weary of playing with my baby toys, so I decided to take on some chores around this house. It is about time I started pitching in!

I rearranged the kitchen cupboard.
Cleaned off the shelf on my high chair.
And, sorted through the DVD's.

The thing is, by morning, mom will have messed it all up, and I'll have to start all over, again!

Pics from Camping Out

Please read the previous blog, "Camping Out," as these pictures go with that blog, and, it's short. I was having troubles knowing if my pictures would come out right, so only had one picture inserted! Of course, I know now that if I was in Compose rather than edit html, it would have shown as pictures!

Breakfast in bed!

I don't want to wear my hat!

Here's a picture of the storm coming in Wednesday night.

Camping out!

For a few days this week, we went out and camped out while de-roofing a sheep shed. De-roofing? Is that a word? Well, we're tearing down the shed. We went down Monday, set up camp, and started working. John's parents came over each day, and we got the roof taken off. While we were working, Everett spent time playing in a "corral" that John set up for him.

Monday evening, we went for a drive, and saw 2 cow elk. On Tuesday night, as thunderclouds were building, I drove out in the 4-wheeler and took a short walk and snapped a few pictures. Wednesday night, we just stayed in the camper and played cards (I'm going to have to look up the rules for Casino). It rained off and on all night and again this morning, so we packed up and came home a little early.

Watch out world...

Soooo tired!

Montana Weather

What a difference a day makes! Saturday, we went to the lake, and it was windy. (See previous post) We left our coats on and sheltered the babies. Sunday, we went to the lake, and it was completely calm, the sun kept us warm. So warm, I sheltered the baby in the shade to keep him cool. This is him cooling off a bit. Extra pictures are added, just because he's so cute!

Let the fishing season begin...

On Saturday, we went fishing with the Miller family. We caught a few fish, and got to spend the day outside enjoying the spring weather (except for the wind, we really didn't enjoy that).

The Miller girls

Me, with my 8 pound catfish! Um, I think I caught the most fish, or at least the most pounds of fish; I also caught about a 4 pound cat, a 3 pound walleye, and another smaller walleye. This was my lucky day!

Upon departing the lake, we headed to Eric and Anne's for a fish fry. Thanks for cooking supper, guys!
