4-h speech results

I did great last night at the 4-h speech contest. I did a speech and a PSA. I won both of them and I got purples. My speech was about a 4-h sheep project. I love giving speeches every year. I am sorry that I haven't blogged in a long time. Here is a picture of my sheep.

Whats been happening in the last week.

Well, so much for blogging everyday...

It has been a week since I have blogged! We are always busy at the Mess Around Ranch. In this post I am going to cover the two major things that has happened this past week.

If you read my post a few weeks ago on how well my lambing year went, it just got better. Last week I woke up and found a new lamb on the ground. I was so amazed! It was a little lamb. The smallest one out there. That's how I knew it was new. The mother of this lamb I did not think was going to lamb. She was a very small ewe to be having a lamb. But she did. So I but her into a lambing pen with her lamb, her lamb was a ewe. So then I went inside and marked 1 more ewe on my lambing chart. Everyone was very surprised too. Nobody though she was going to lamb.

The other thing... There is no other thing. I was going to talk about the farm house but then I remembered that I already told you all about it in my other post. Dad may have found somebody who will want to rent it from him. But we are still waiting for the person to move out first. All the animals are doing fine. I am going to shear my sheep next week. I will put lots of new pictures of them then. By the way, here is a picture of my new lamb. Its not a very good picture, its really hard to take a good picture of a animal when they are moving.

This was a really short post, but I had to put something out to keep my blog updated. Next week a lot more will be going on. I will put more pictures out soon. I just got a new high speed computer. I am able to download more pictures now. Its time to eat and I'm hungry. Thanks for reading.

Weird dream.

I'm going to talk about the really weird dream I had last night.

I was all grown up driving around in my car when suddenly I fell off the road. Then I just kept falling and falling for the rest of my dream. I woke up when I hit the ground. I almost fell out of bed too.

Its funny what one can dream about. Some times I go to bed thinking of elephants and I will dream about hippos. I think that dreams is a way to sort of another place where you can make all your dreams come true. If you are able to control your dreams. ( Most of the time I can not.)You can do anything you want. Dreams can sort of be fun. Depends on what your dreaming about. But what about nightmares? I don't get why sometimes I have a good dream and other times I have a really scary painful dream. Maybe I get nightmares because I worry to much. I try to live fun and fancy free. But if something is scaring me, Like going to bed knowing there's a lost lamb out side, that will give me night mares. I don't really know why I am talking about dreams. But I have to post every day and now is the time to blog when nobody else is awake.

I don't think I told the story of what happened a week ago. It was Good Friday, everybody went to church that night. We got home and everybody was going in the house. But then I heard one of my sheep crying. So I grabbed a flash light and went into the sheep pen to see what was the matter. I counted all the sheep 3 times! I knew that one was missing. So I went in to tell mom and dad. And guess what. Nobody believed me! But dad and Josiah came out side to look just in case. They looked in and out of the sheep pen. And they didn't believe me! Well, dad doesn't know the sheep like I do. So he didn't really know one was missing. He thought it was lying down somewhere safe. So then they said go to bed. I walked up the stairs with tears in my eyes knowing that my lamb was missing and that nobody believes me. I woke up next morning filled with happiness when I went out side. Very fain there was a lamb crying by the goat pen. Me and Josiah ran over there to see what it was. Sure enough, it was the missing lamb. Then dad came over there to see what we were doing. He was very, very amazed. Wow Noah, I guess you were right. You really do know your sheep. Mom was surprised too. So I took it back to the sheep pen hoping that it would find the mother. And it did. I was so glad that my sheep didn't die.



So the next time your kid or best friend needs something. And you really don't believe, you got to. Who knows what will happen if you don't. Seeing is believing. But first you got to believe! I am still feeling a little sick. I am going to go eat something and then do chores. Thanks for reading this post.

Back to Bloging.

Well, I haven't blogged in a long long time. I've just been so busy these past 2 weeks. I just turned 13 on Wednesday so now I'm a teenager. Since I need to blog more often and since I keep forgetting, mom told me that if I don't start blogging again no computer entirely! So I need to start waking up early in the morning to blog before anyone else comes down. There are just to many distractions during the day time.

I was going to wake up this morning, but everybody got sick the night before. We're not really sure what it is we caught but its pretty bad. We were suppose to have company come out today, (Another home school family) but mom is going to call in sick. Please forgive my poor writing. Its so hard to write when everybody is coiffing in the back round.

All the animals are doing great as always. The sheep are staying in and the pigs keep getting out. The Goats are as stubborn as ever. I can't wait for out milk cow Midnight to calf. She gives us the most milk. I can't wait to make cheese and butter again. But right now we do not have the milk. It seems like it has been a while since I posted any pictures out. I don't have any handy at the moment but I promise I will put some out tomorrow. Hopefully I will be feeling better tomorrow.

Last Saturday dad went to look at some land for sale. He took us with him and he bout it. 77 acres of land with a nice house on it. Dad is planning on putting some cows out on it. I don't know what he will do with the house. But since I'm the oldest I get first pics when I move out. Dad said he could let us live on land that he owns. (Until we get out own)


I am so sorry but I am feeling really bad right now. I will post more tomorrow when I am feeling better. I am going to blog everyday or I don't get computer that day. That is the new deal. Tomorrow I will put pictures out of all the animals. I am going to go and do chores. Wish me luck! Sorry this post was sloppy. I'm sure you know what its like to be sick.
