January-February

Well January came and then we ended up with several funerals within one week.  Dusty's Grandma Forre passed away.  She was a wonderful lady who was loved by many, and is deeply missed by all of her family!  My cousin lost a baby, and we had a friend pass away also.  After that very sad week, we seem to have continued with the rest of the business that life brings. 

The girls and I went along to the Lincoln rodeo with Dusty, they had a great time!  They sure don't like to miss anything.  The last weekend in January Dusty was in Rapid City.  Dusty and Troy placed in the rodeo, and had got to mess around a bit while they were up there.  Amanda and Kathleen came to hang out for a few days.  The girls loooove it when they come to visit!  They played hide and seek, for a very long time, played with games and puzzles, played the wii, and ate and ate! 

The first couple weekends in February were pretty calm and we stayed home most of the time.  It is great to feel like we are somewhat in a normal routine for this semester of school.  This past weekend we worked cows and then moved a few to a different field.  On Sunday the kids and I went to Beemer for the day.  It was nice to see my grandparents, and be around Grandma Troyer's as they sort for the move.
