Happy New Year!

The Bish's have not fallen off the face of the earth. We are consumed with lots of babies in the barn, some small, some white, some speckled, some boys, some girls, some alive, some not!!!  We are in full swing of lambing and with that comes some early am hours, some late pm hours and some intense feeeding.  We are on a pretty good role right now, cross your fingers and hope it stays.  With triplets born this morning we could be up for another bottle lamb!  We had a couple and now we have none!!!
We have played in the snow, although no sledding we are hoping for a large snow fall for that.  We have went ice fishing, coyote hunting, reading (the new kindle is fun),  back in the swing of school and school work, canned all the deer meat from winter, and we have spent some time, just playing.  The boys have their very own farm in the living room!  They sell, buy and trade their animals with each other!!!  (it is amazing how much they pay attention and how much they know!)

*Tucker is in the full swing of Kindergarten, some days he just doesn't want to go, little does he know it isn't a choice.  for the next 13 years!  He loves to play with farm animals, put puzzles together, play the wii, play the kindle, and go hunting with dad for short amounts of time.  He is a tender boy who aims to please, ... most of the time. Him and cousin Hayden have become buddies and he is a helpful fun boy!!!

*Tayden has kicked it in the rear at school and has made it to almost grade level in reading!! WHoo Hoo- anybody who talked to me in September would know that was a HUGE problem!  He loves, loves, loves to go coyote hunting with his dad, has a soft heart, but easily is annoyed with little brother!  We spend a lot of time squabbling!  He is truly growing up!

*Lori is spending time with her new machine making (things) for others and herself,  She is enjoying her class!!!  THey are a fun group of kids even though there is 26 as of today!  I have begun reading and it is fun and addicting along with words with friends!  I help with the sheep and keeping up with all of it is enough! Thanks

*Brandon has started a new job at wimbco, he has worked there before, he drives farther, but he also makes a little more, as of know we haven't noticed, it all seems to have a place to go!!!!  He is in full swing of coyote hunting, words with friends, and haying/feeding animals!!!!  His bedtime has improved with getting up at 6 am. 

Hope the new year is finding all of you well!  I will try to do a better job with the blog!
