Our new toy...

Oh, and one last post for good measure! Here's our latest free find at the Chesnut ranch....a golf cart! We love it as we can shuffle to and from and across the pasture to Todd's parents' home. The dogs love it too...

Meet Little Miss...

One of my best girlfriends, Jodie, had her little baby yesterday. I had other things I needed to do at home that evening since life is slowly getting away from me with 30 days left until the wedding, but I thought things like this are what matters and I need to make the trip to see her. I am so glad I did. I spent 2 hours with their friends, Jack and Jill, Jodie's husband, Lee, Jodie and the newest little O'Brien, Miss E.

She was so cute, so adorable, everything you hope, pray and wish for in a little girl. I am so incredibly happy for the O'Briens as they have two other boys and this little princess completes their family. She is so loved already and will have the best time growing up in this home. Almost makes me want a baby now, ahhh, what am I thinking?! Maybe I'm slowly coming around to the idea of having a child, but we'll see what God allows to happen...

Isn't she darling?!

Her newest babysitter, Melissa!

To Die For...

I made these brownies courtesy of the Pioneer Woman for my brothers' party a while back. I wanted to let you all know, no one else ate any other desserts! That must tell you something about how ooey, gooey, delicious they are! I CANNOT wait til her newest cookbook comes out. Oh, and I absolutely love watching her show on the Food Network on Saturday mornings (I never get to watch it then, it's always on DVR). She's the epitome of what I always said I wanted to do, be a ranch wife. Don't think that's going to happen in the southern part of Buchanan County, Missouri, but maybe a tobacco farmer's wife, ha!
