First frost and an award

We got our first frost this morning... A couple days ago, we actually had a tiny bit of frost, just on a few clover leaves, but today was a real frost.
The sky looked so wierd this morning with the sun kind of hiding behind the trees and making a halo.

I'm glad that the ice on the bucket is only a thin film, and not a quarter, or half inch thick like it gets in the winter.

The grass out in front the Horse Barn.
One good thing about the frost, all the frosty barbed wire pictures!
Trace is up in the Ten Acre field watching Melvin run at mach 5 to the house. He got shocked on Nick's electric fence. Melvin had to run to house so he could shiver and hide under the table for a few hours.

The other day, Shirely over at Ride A Good Horse gave me this award. First of all, thank you, Shirely!

The text that goes with the award: “To translate the gift from Portuguese to English, it means: “This blog invests and believes, the proximity” (meaning, that blogging makes us ‘close’ - being close through proxy)

“They all are charmed with the blogs, where in the majority of its aims are to show the marvels and to do friendship; there are persons who are not interested when we give them a prize, and then they help to cut these bows; do we want that they are cut, or that they propagate? Then let’s try to give more attention to them! So with this prize we must deliver it to bloggers that in turn must make the same thing and put this text.”
I'm passing this award onto Threecollie, and Paula

**On another note, I'm goin to set aside some time tomorrow and go through and answer all the comments that I'm behind on.**

D.L.B. award



I received this award from Notshy over at Just Another Day on the Prairie. Thanks Notshy! Trace was so excited when I told him that you bestowed the award to him.

I would like to pass this award on to Kiera at Author Mom With Dogs. She is a very beautiful dog!

My First Award



Wow, my first award! What a funny coincidence, my Mom and I both got nominated for awards on the same day!


First, I want to thank Shirley over at Ride A Good Horse for honoring me with this award. Thanks Shirley! Your blog is wonderful. I love your blog because you raise and show Quarter Horses, and you take great pictures of your horses and colt, Choctaw Peppy. He's a beauty!


The rules state that I have to pick at least seven blogs, but I don't think I read enough, but we'll see... Now, in no particular order:


1. Linda at Just Another Day On the Prairie, I love your blog! I love all your cattle and horse pictures, and you have a good eye for good camera shots, and a great sense of humor. Your lifestyle; I wish ours was more like that.

2. Ree over at Confessions Of A Pioneer Woman, what can I say? Your blog is amazing. You're an amazing photographer, and you give great tutorials on how to edit pictures, and everyday I can't wait to see what you've taken a picture of, or what funny/crazy story that you will post.

3. Threecollie at Northview Diary, it's nice to read about a dairy farm and see your funny pictures of the frogs and "marine" life that live in your Rubbermaid stock tank.

4. Jen at Copenhagen Kisses, love your pictures!

5. Nita at Throwback At Trapper Creek or should I say Creak? Eventhough you ask me to check your visits every five minutes, it's still fun to take pictures for the blog and help you edit it...

6. Kdwhorses, at Blackjack Land & Cattle Company, Lovely pictures, and I like to see what's going on down in Texas.

7. Paula at It's All Gouda, your food always looks so good that I'm always drooling and hungry after looking at your blog!

8. Nuzzling Muzzles, I'm a horse lover, so I love your blog. Beautiful pictures, too!


Rules for passing on the award:

1. The winner can put the logo on her blog.
2. Link the person you received your award from.
3. Nominate at least 7 other blogs.
4. Put links of those blogs on yours.
5. Leave a message on the blogs of those you have nominated.
