Ranchin' around and Life

the cows say hi!!
I got to be the *Rancher in control* for a while , and then they told me I was wrong - it was them in control and they would run the range haha..

So I closed the gate and got all the grain ready before they stampeded me !


We don't get to see the Northern Lights often - we have seen them twice in the many years we have lived here - so I teased.. we had som crazy storms and a sunset - I think this might be the Northern Lights of Colorado.....




All the girls were back together for a little bit!
My Son came home to hang out and then we took a little trip....


But not before crazy storms came in. My Husband sees a dinosaur head in the right side of the photo. And now - I can't unsee it.


We had a break out in the middle of the night!  We had built a new corrall for one of the stud colts. We were trying to give him more room, and sand - to keep dry from the rain.

But!! He started playing with his feed pan and somehow unhooked the panels ---- and he Escaped!


And part of his escape was to get into the hay shed. We have a side with grass hay and a side with alfalfa... you know he went to the alfalfa - and man - did he make a mess!



We took a little trip - my son said - I see your suitcase....




And a close up - proved he was right - you can see my patriotic fabric haha! While we were waiting for our return flight - we saw the Honor Flight from Florida disembark - it was pretty cool - everyone on the airport stood and clapped for them. The smiles were huge!




Now!!
Back to the piles!!!

My favorite finish for august

 Quilting Jet Girl hosts *My Favorite Finish* and you know what!!

I have one!! ( or two -but who is counting ) I am so excited!!


My Favorite Finish is my Pringles Quilt!!! I love it so much I already have it on my bed, just awaiting the fall weather....




This is Pringles - it started as a block swap between 7 of us - based on Lynn Dykstras quilt .


We each made 350 blocks to swap and then 150 of our own - so all of the ones that have a purple top are the ones I made just for me - it was supposed to make a really cool path - and mine is.... its just Hidden.... as Joy So nicely suggested - its the hidden path.







I used this and a purple check on the back...









Yay!! so excited to actually have a favorite Finish!!

And Happy September!!
