Homestead

Well Sunday Bert decided that we needed to start painting our fences around our cattle lots. He brought the color hunter green home. Tanner and Bert started painting first and to tell you the truth it looks really nice from the house. It actually matches our shutters. We are getting ready to build some new fence on the east side of the house and it will all be green too. When Bert was unloading the pipe from the trailor Tanner please tell me dad that this isn't all going to have to be painted green too. Bert said Yes. Tanner was like oh my goodness. The green paint does look really nice when you drive up. You can really tell a difference. I can really tell a difference on my legs and arms where I got it on me and it won't come off. Bert forgot to mention that it was an oil base and it will be very difficult to come off. I look a little spotted. Tanner was asked at school if he had the chicken pox. Funny how when you get the chicken pox they are now green. HA!!! I am sure when we get Bert's painting project done it will look really nice.

Carlee had another volleyball game last night. We played Nevada, again. The girls did good last night. Our girls won the 1st match and then lost the next two. The third game was really good it was neck in neck, so they made it very exciting to watch. Carlee had to get up to be at practice at 6:30 this morning. She was dragging just a little when she left at 6:00. Coach Marti is taking them to a Missouri Southern volleyball game tonight. He is such a daring soul. He wants some of the parents to come along, but I haven't made up my mind yet. Bert has a livestock meeting tonight at the school, so it would be Tanner and I. I think the favorite thing for him at a volleyball game is the food and socializing. I guess we will see what the day brings, and go from there.
