Too Much to Say Wednesday

So I missed wordless Wednesday this week and then I was thinking I was gonna put up the pics I saw of the geese on Sunday.  I actually got my sister to take them as I was driving.   It was pretty amazing to see them all at once so close like that, guess they didn't think it was cold enough to fly south yet.



Then today as I was on my way home I was surprised at the animals at the texas gate.  I thought some cows were out, until I saw them.  And Neil drove in the yard about 10 minutes behind me and he thought my horses were out there, lol.  But nope to each, was a little unexpected to see Mooses.    So I got a few pics of them movin and then I stopped and they stopped to look at me so that was nice of them I thought :)  Looks like a mom and baby.  Guess we shoulda got a moose hunting licence this year, who knew.





and Neil got our signs up from our 100 years homesteaded here.  They look pretty good, We are probly gonna remove the 2x4s on the front and maybe put our brand on the posts yet, we haven't decided, but so far I like it.


So lots of pics I coulda used for Wednesday, but am a little bit late and I think they needed words.  Or at least I needed words (like always, lol)

Boring

Not much going on here to blog about.  Still waiting on fence to be done so I can move the ponies and ride, don't know why its taking so long, kinda annoyed about it really.

Went to my Moms scrap booking on Friday and worked on my vacation from this summer, about half done it, its going a lot slower than I thought it would.  Then afterwards I stayed over at my sisters and we went down to the Spruce Meadows Christmas Fair.  I had never been but had always wanted too.  Little bit of a lineup with cars getting in but once we were there was all good.  Lots of vendors, some indoors and some out.  I didn't really buy a lot just kinda a few things and wanted to see what they had, next year probly more Christmas gifts will come from there.  We also seen the reindeer from Sunday Stills there, that was rather unexpected :)
(couple pics our hunters gave us, not as fond of the wolf, 
but really like the bottom one)
Otherwise just starting to decorate for Christmas and making plans on where we are spending it.  Sure am hoping it gets warm so I can go riding out here, although probly too slippery since there is ice under all our snow, but hopefully better in the pastures than the yard.  We had a few hunters out, we are less 2 buck and a doe deer.  But yesterday Neil said we still had 3 bucks, so no shortage of deer around here.

I am not that fond of this time of year, nights start to early and I get super bored, but I do get to see the sunrise and sunset every day now.  Quite often miss sunrise in summer cause it is so early.

Sunday Stills -- Animals in Black and White

This week I had great plans of getting my black and white horse in just snow and hoping I could do a color pic and have it look black and white, but I never had the chance, but yesterday at Spruce Meadows Christmas Fair they had reindeers there and so got a few pics of them since I figured no one else will probly have reindeer :)  I didn`t have my camera with me, so the pics are off my camera with no flash, so they are not as good as I had hoped, specially the laying down one, but here they are anyways.

First was Donner standing up and eating, we tried to get him to look towards us but he wouldn`t.  First in Black and White and then in color.



Then Comet laying down, his antlers are pretty big!


Then lastly I got Dasher sleeping, looks like one of his antlers has been broken off but it didnt seem to bother him nor did all the people around, he just slept through it all.



For more check out Sunday Stills.
