It's that time of year...

...for mysterious packages to arrive, only to be whisked away to Cora's bedroom.  The reason for that is because my brother Andrew and my birthdays are just around the corner. In fact, mine is only five days away!  And then I will be 16!

  Anyway, yesterday we all got up and did our chores, and then we went up to our pasture to move our cows the five miles (roughly) home.  That project took us a good three hours...  When we got them home, we put them in our combined corn field, so they can eat on the stalks for a while.

  We are working on school in full swing now days, so between doing school; checking the cows; and doing odd jobs around the farm, I have been keeping plenty busy...  Andrew and Dad have been keeping busy too, as they have been gone almost every day of the week.

  We have talked about building an ice hockey rink for several years now, but we never got around to building it, but this year I think that it might happen!  Andrew has found a fairly inexpensive liner, but we are still looking...

  Well, gotta run, Jacob.
