Day 128 - rain as promised

Day 128 was full rain as promised, thru the night and into this new day. this "back to school" day!

Shaina - entering grade 12, last year of high school

Britt - entering grade 9, last year of junior high

Where has the time gone? Would have asked Kaylin to pop over for a photo but her early work day was cancelling due to rain as she was beer cart girl.

this was captured on the way to the ranch since both girls were not ready at the same time this am, Britt actually left early!
I worked the am and then came home to pack and that i did.

 by 3 there was 7/10ths of rain which we do need. Sheldon had to meet at rental to inspect for the damage deposit return which all passed so we have our new hacienda ready to move into now. After supper we headed out.
At the ranch, we found the basement was finished getting dry walled. along with tons of puddles water and tire tracks in the mud, the girls fed the ponies a teat of beet pulp and ground carrots! (thanks Ray)

 Shaina seeing her room first time in ten days or so

 Brittany checking out her new room.. yes she has officially (only as of today) claimed this as her new room thanks to Shelby's visit yesterday and my vetoing her paint choice if she was upstairs.

now to head upstairs and see what is new there

 

here we are setting up our furniture to see where I want the living room floor outlet, the pails are leather chairs and the lawn chairs are our loveseat, can you envision? But finally to Matt and Sheldon's amazement I chose the spot


to the left is all I can see thru the garage peep hole of our cabinets, can you believe there were two keys , we brought one and it was not the garage key? Day 2 of what lies behind the mystery doors.

then we trudged off thru the mud to remove Julio's stitches.

(with our exacto knife to be exact!)

nurse Baby has to inspect everything we do.
then it was back to town where some blogged, some showered, some worked out and some sorted thru grain receipts :-) they say the sun will come out tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar! Let's see.
