Quiet Time...
“Such things were written in the Scriptures long ago to teach us. And the Scriptures give us hope and encouragement as we wait patiently for God’s promises to be fulfilled.” - Romans 15:4

When I go out before daybreak to get something out of one of the freezers in the common area I always get to see this little scene...it's very pretty and "Christmasy"...
Another cold morning...I guess it is to be expected :-) and no matter what the temperature is the chickens and ducks need to be tended...
Daddy had a morning appointment with the Foot and Arch Doctor so we headed out.
Little Ponderosa Zoo has fields all along the road below our hill and there is the cutest small bull out there...I asked James (the owner) what kind he is and turns out he is a miniature Zebu! When Lanny and I first saw him we said he looked like the Veggie Tale Cebu (it's a Silly Song in case you don't know)...The names are so close that I am sure the Veggie Tale writers used this little Zebu as their inspiration...
The Zebu gives about a gallon of milk per day vs the usual farm cows that produce around 5 gallons, so we may just look for one of these little beauties next spring.
After I brought Dad home Lanny and I went back down the hill for chicken feed and some things I forgot for tomorrow nights Family Dinner... we also stopped at Freddy's Steakburger and got us a burger combo...I ate ALL the fries and if you've ever been there you know they give you about three servings in that platter. Needless to say, I was not hungry for dinner.
I made some left over roast and gravy and fed Mom and Dad, Paula and Lanny some hot roast beef sandwiches...they looked yummy but I am still full!
So Lanny is in the shower, I am in my jammies and ready to snuggle on the couch with the "pack"... I'll let you know our feature film choice tomorrow...
Goodnight Y'all...
