May 12, 2007 - my day, or kinda, days
grrrrrrrr............. i just wrote this whole thing out then the computer messed up and i have 2 do it again!!
okay last night we went bowling...... funfunfun! i hadn't been bowling since i was 5!!
today dad saddled up rusty for me... i hadn't been riding in a looonngg time because rusty had been having so much trouble with his foot but last saturday we got special shoes on him so now he's doing great. we have 10 acres, in the front we have our house, then behind that a wooded creek. behind the creek is all pastureland. we have two pastures, a goat pen, a small barn, but other than that it's all open fields. so i got to ride him all around that, it was great! there's just something about being out in nature, God's creation, just you and your horse... and a mini donkey that follows you around :P... and God, of course! our house is surrounded by mountains (all at a distance, of course) so it makes for great scenery. so i was spent about... i dunno, 2 hours?... riding around looking at God's beautiful creation.... it's therapy.... lol! gives you lots of prayer time, too! :D kinda like you were saying, sarah... God made those wildflowers for... me!!! he made the mountains, the grass, the sky for us!! wow.... :D reminds me of a poem i wrote once when we went to mt. magazine... it's not very good but here it is:
“Mountains”
Mountains, mountains
Stretching so high,
Reaching up to touch the sky,
Then stooping down,
Down low to the ground.
Mountains, mountains
Far and wide.
I stand and look upon them with pride,
For I know their Creator, He also made me.
He made everything in the world, you see.
Mountains, mountains,
Ever so beautiful,
Never boring to look at,
Never dull.
When I look upon them,
I know they are not made by men,
Only the Divine Creator.
“Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep...”
-Psalm 36:6a
so anyway then i led eliza and laura around on him a bit, then put him back in the pasture. boy, was he glad to get that hot saddle off! and he was sweaty!! really sweaty! ick! :( but anyway... then we had to vaccinate all 21 lambs... triple augh! (sarah's word!) and they are all so dumb so it takes a long time, lol! (right, sarah?)
