A Tough Week

This past week started with butchering on Monday and Tuesday.  I kinda feel a little guilty that this is my third year not helping due to kids but yet I can still get the end product!  I definitely look forward to having that fresh sausage in the freezer!  Thanks to everyone that helped this year!
On April 19 we got word that my uncle Ken had passed away.  So on Tuesday, Kim and I headed to Swift Current with our kids for a few days and the rest would come the next day so they could finish butchering!
It's always tough to say good-bye to somebody for the last time.  What is hardest for me is to see the hurt in those left here.  It is this time when there is great need for a strong support system and it is soo good to see the family rally behind them and show them that we love them.  
Now we all seem to be a little sick. Nothing major and considering it is the first cold for any of us for this winter, I think we did pretty good.
Natalie helped me plant some starter seeds, a little late yes but we got them in none the less!  I love being able to do things like that with her.  We finally figured out Carter's sleeping problems and he seems to be doing much better sleeping on his stomach.  It makes things much easier during the day when you have a happy baby!

Here is a picture that I took during our photo shoot for the birth announcements!
