Watford City Bound


The last time we went home we decided that we would leave a little earlier to come back to work so we could actually stop and check out some of the cool stuff that we see along the way. Usually we don't have enough time to stop and check things out but who knows when we might ever get the chance again? We learned our lesson when we were in Pennsylvania last year. I have an uncle that lives in Hells Kitchen in New York which is right in Manhattan. Where we were in Montgomery was only a three hour drive to his house and in the four and a half months we were there we never once got over there! So now, we have made a decision to take our time and check things out! 


 I don't remember what a lot of these statues were for but they were way cool looking!
 Me and the puppies back in North Dakota. This would be Miss Doze's first time here.
 This buffalo had the COOLEST painting on it! Not to mention I think buffalo are awesome.
 A mini pump rig. These are the small size of the thousand big ones that are everywhere here!
 He was just excited for the drive to be almost over! :)
And last but not least, a picture of the lovely couple in their new home of residence for a while.
Best wishes from North Dakota!

So the other day I decided that I needed just one more little pet. Or three. So, we went to Walmart so I could buy some fish because a teacup pig is out of the picture for just a minute! I am a crazy animal lady but I love love love my pets! So we went there and picked out this cute little tank that has a wonderful little filter in it. I picked out a Beta and also two guppies. The guy working there in the pet isle said that it would be just fine to put a Beta with other fish as long as it was a female Beta. So, I got home, put the tank together, and inserted the fish. Everything was going wonderfully until the next day when I got home and found my one little guppy's tail had been tore up just a little bit. I felt bad but didn't want to get rid of my Beta so I decided that hopefully the other ones can make it until I get a new tank for the Beta and I will take it to work by itself. Me and Nate, (mostly me, he just goes along with it) we love to do new things and keep on our toes. So this was last weeks fun adventure. Lets see how long it lasts!

Cattle Workin'


This last trip that we took home my dad decided that he was going to need Nate's help to preg check the cows. So, we went to the farm to get some new teachings. When we got there the cows had already been sorted and all that was left was to take them through the shoot, put on a really long glove, give them a shot and a tag and last but not least, stick your whole arm inside them to feel for a baby! This was normal for me but I wasn't 100% sure Nate was up for the task. But, after watching a couple of times he decided to hop in there and give it a try. He didn't hate it but I can't say he loved it. But, i'm sure the next time my Dad needs help Nate will be more than willing to jump in and try something new with me right there by his side taking  pictures!
