A new feeling

 Donovan Ross was born on May 7th

 I am TOTALLY taken bu surprise, as to how being a G'ma would make me feel!!!!
 I thought I loved his daddy more than life.....
 There are NO WORDS to express my feelings for him!!!
 I am beginning to see a WHOLE NEW perspective of life.....
All of the things I have been through in my life...ups and downs....highs and lows....
THIS feeling.....is BY FAR the very best!!!!!! *sigh* :o)
I can't stop grinning...... :o)

Been kinda busy lately :o)

As the onset of the busiest time of the year for me, I found little time lately to share the goings on around here at SONshine farm. I have been wanting to share, just haven't had any time.
here are a few things keeping me busy, other than the usual
~The abundance of mulberries and the making of mulberry pies and jam
~The abundance of blackberries and making blackberry pies and jam
~The abundance of cucumbers and the making of hot garlic dill pickles
~The abundance of herbs of every kind and harvesting and drying
~The abundance of turkeys and processing
~~the tomato vines are LOADED
~the pepper plants are loaded

 the cucumber vines have been very fruitful thus far...
making me a quart of pickles or two every day with some left for snacking ;o) 

 some of my dried goodies
 100 lbs of fresh and TENDER turkey
we skin some and then pluck some
 March babies
Rattlesnake season is in FULL swing

Hope all is going well in your neck of the woods!
