PUPPIES FOR SALE!!!

We have PureBred Border Collie Puppies for Sale!!! They just turned 8 weeks on the 12th of November!! They have had their 1st Puppy Shot. We are asking $100. Please feel free to pass this onto friends and relatives!!! There are 3 males and 1 female~ They are out of 2 VERY GOOD working parents!! Sid would be lost w/o his dogs!! He uses them all of the time when gathering up the cattle and they watch the gates while he feeds in the feedlot!!

Here is Louise's puppy~ Rosie ~ the only female
Has the coloring of Okie, the mamma

Not sure whose puppy this one is,but it's a male
coloring like Gus, the papa
Kalen and his puppy King

We spent a Sunday afternoon out on the lawn w/ the puppies~ they were timid at first~ but they warmed up quickly and were out exploring~ The kids had a blast playing with them!

Gus
Both Okie and Gus are really good with the kids~
I can't say enough about how good they are w/ working cattle too.
I didn't get a picture of Okie as we tried to keep her away from the
puppies b/c all they wanted to do was nurse!! They are on food though~

Halloween

Okay~ I must admit~ Halloween is not one of my favorite holidays! I don't like to drag out the costumes or come up w/ ideas for costumes b/c I'm toooooo cheap to go and buy them!! I usually just find different things at rummages to hopefully make into something! The kids get a TON of candy that none of us really need~ especially MOM!! But I must say, I do love painting their faces and the kids enjoy it, so I suck it up and away we go!!

Okay~ so Sid may not know it, but I have a little tradition of going out for pizza before we head out to go trick-or-treating!! The kids love it and it's just fun to do w/ the kids!! Usually Sid is in the field, so he doesn't get to share in on this experience.

Jarrett was getting too HOT in his costume!!

Look at all the Candy!!

Though it was short, it was a great time w/ L&M!! We are so thrilled that they are expecting, so that we can do all of these things w/ their little one!! (PLUS, Aunt Tana is REALLY looking forward to teaching their little one ALL (and maybe more) of the wonderful 'tricks' U.Lucas taught his nephews and nieces!!!! :-)
