Today was Bruces first day of spring work he spread manure as Tanya questioned when she was younger do you have to do that the make fun of us it smells. Tanya it still smells.Had a new baby yesterday of course mommy had to have it as a surprise so it was born in the manure. Carrie has gone bowling tonite her and her church group.
