To our friends scattered to and fro,
This week found us continuing the hammer down life of a farmer in the springtime.. Father completed planting soybeans on our rental ground, and we started spring chopping. Wednesday as I was in the field, I received a text from Julia.. It read:
Caption naming contest! Winner will receive reward.. To be announced..
Apparently Julia was working with our heifers and snapped this pic on her phone.. I had no idea how serious this really was.. Lets just say 49 entries, and a party complete with 3 gals of homemade ice cream later, the results are in.. 🙂 I get such a kick out of the different directions that the mind runs.. Thought maybe you’d enjoy seeing some of the entries.. Thanks to those of you who humored us.. 🙂

The contributing authors that showed up at the ice cream party voted for the best caption..
Second place: -Kissing booth: 25 cents/ kiss
And the winner -Normally I wouldn’t kiss on the first date, but I’ll break the rule for you!
..and thus provided some excitement for Paradise Lane.. 🙂 Some of the captions have a story behind them.. Like our milk tank has the unusual problem of running over recently -PTL.. And Andrew is a former hired man who was convinced the cows are missing him ;).. Anyhow.. Have a moovolous day- Kendra

This is Father’s contribution to my blog.. He thought this would be great..lol.. I’m still not a fan of the rooster, but am a little more tolerant since Sqwack is penned up most of the time.. I wish I knew what Rolo was thinking.. Jimmy and Mervin are being good sports..
” Somehow the picnic didn’t turn out quite like Sqwack had imagined..”
