Rumination Tags


Do you remember that we put all new tags on our cows


well...they were the wrong ones


so we had coffee in the barn


changed all the tags


recorded new numbers and entered them in the computer
this was not fun
although it was much easier because it was so recently done

the end of our Trip


My mom and dad are moving soon


 The best part is the view, it is fabulous 


my mom asked for a picture of the 6 greatgrandkids


I visited Arie and Ineke to see their new home
very nice!


Spring in Holland


getting better at selfies


such a nice park


but we saw lots of threatening clouds too


the last few days Olga and Stephen spent in this
nice cottage


close to the beach


sand is a great toy


time to pack


time to go home
