Some things have changed since then...I no longer teach but stay on the ranch to help as needed and now have Ranch Chic Corral. We have grown our herd, and we have 4 beautiful hardworking ranch children, and the oldest off at college. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">BUT this still makes my heart smile every time I read it! All our kids love the ranch and all of them a different aspect of it...we always make jokes that maybe some day after they have gone to college and done their thing that they may return. Along with that we also joke and label each as "the worker", "the records person", "tell everyone what to do", "let's try something new"...yes we know what each of them would be (and anyone around my kids do too:). But in all honesty they all have great traits and together they would make a great team...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So here is a little reading for you today from our now almost 15 year old when she was 9...</span><br />

This was her when she was 9 years old, when this poem was written. <br />

Have a great day! <br />

What a great experience. I was surrounded by amazing women all wanting to learn and increase their knowledge and education of the community that we all share. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">As I reflect on everything I learned personally, and just got done sharing with my handsome, hard working husband I felt compelled to write about it, because if I left with one main focus for any of us in the agriculture world it is:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">WE NEED TO EDUCATE! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">We need to spread the word about how our daily operations function, how food is brought to tables across America, how consumers in America affect the legacy of our heritage, how no matter how much we are frustrated with politics, that we are the voice, the voice for the future of agriculture. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">At one point in the conference I teared up thinking about my 5 year old. My 5 year old who could probably run a ranch on his own. The 5 year old that brings his "herd" which are cow/calf pairs with bulls to different pastures throughout our house (the kitchen table is winter pasture, his bedroom floor is summer pasture, our room is the sale barn). My 5 year old that hauls hay in his tractor each day to them, who "rides" his horses or four wheelers through them to make sure they are all healthy. My 5 year old who puts his brand on all his livestock with a permanent marker to make sure no one invades his herd he has worked hard to build....and I wonder. Will he have an opportunity to pursue this passion if he chooses so when he gets older or will our industry be so far gone he won't be able to? It made me sad, because in the exact moment how thought of how blessed my family is to be a part of the agriculture community and I want my children to be able to have that same opportunity if they want to. But what if they can't? </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">As I listened I thought to myself about how I can do my little part in helping educate America and I realized I should share more from my blog about our life...so I am committed, committed to using the blog as a platform to educate about the beef industry, our cow/calf operation and how it functions on a daily basis, struggles affecting the agriculture industry and of course funnies and humors about our lifestyle (as we have many..we are quite an entertaining family). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Okay so I get frustrated when I see or hear people say the "grass-fed" beef is better...do people really understand the very limited difference between a grass fed cow and a cow that may have been grass fed but finished on feed? Do they understand how less economical it is to have all grass fed beef? Personally people will say, well it is more lean...well let me tell you..I am almost 40 and I have NEVER eaten beef from a store but I know the beef that I cook once, twice, or 3 times a day for my family has to have water added to it as it is lean and guess what...it isn't all grass fed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">I always feel like we are "organic" because we raise it, feed it, harvest it, and it goes to our table to feed our hardworking, healthy family and it is great tasting!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Here is a great article from the Beef Magazine that discusses much of what I shared. Thank you for reading and joining me on this journey.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Now don't get me wrong, I have thought of much to blog about but just haven't and probably need to because I am guessing there are many women who are moms, wives, and trying to be supermoms like me who have many of the same thoughts. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">To be honest, sometimes, while I am driving, I think of great blog post and create them in my mind but never get them actually typed! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Well here at Ranch Chic Corral we have spent the summer adapting to change. I am now officially on the ranch full time, and doing my Ranch Chic Corral business as I can and our oldest left the nest. We had a summer full of rodeos, boating, roping, haying, haying, oh and did I say haying? Which reminds me...I have some new tshirts coming out for all you beautiful ranch wives and women!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">July I did a barn sale to purge of some items! It was great to see everyone and visit with new customers!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">August I created an etsy page and stocked it with the signs I create...usually based on how I am feeling that day..I believe each one has a story to tell. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">September had another etsy fall sale and did the Country Junkin Show in Faith, SD...which brings me to my post...as hard as ranchers work...sometimes I wonder if it makes them become self absorbed?</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Okay maybe that is inconsiderate but really ladies...do any of you experience this too? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Be honest with me if you do!!...Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE my husband and all he provides for us through his hard work but sometimes I want to through the cow Sh** he worked so hard at creating in his face...no lie, yes that was harsh but man do they ever need it sometimes! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">But by the grace of god I don't throw anything in his face, I usually bite my tongue and pray for the Lord to give me strength and be a woman of grace.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You know that...What are you doing today because I need you to cook for 10 people. Sure honey I will, would have been nice if you would have told me before 10:00 on the morning of the meal...now for branding we are always ready, but those random..oh I am working a few head today and forgot to tell you. Is my hardworking handsome rancher the only one who does this? </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Or the come in the house and yell your name, maybe 5 times if you did not hear or on the phone or maybe even trying to go to the bathroom and ask you if you are busy? AND what you really want to say is everything that he doesn't even realize you do during the day, but instead you say "No, what do you need help with?" AND your morning is now taken away with a "5 minute" help job. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So what made me wonder if all of our hardworking, handsome ranchers are like this..well, I had to haul my items to Faith for the Country Junkin show and about 2 days before this our hired man's pick up broke down. This meant that he had to take one of our 2 that hauls a trailer. I needed a trailer on Friday/Saturday and my husband needed one on Friday for hauling bulls and trailing cows and one on Saturday night for a Ranch Rodeo. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">WELL that turned into a downright fit throwing occasion..because why did I have to go...and why didn't I look at the schedule (as I booked a booth in like June for September) and not quite sure what else he all said but I am sure he said more. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">AND to top it all off..I decided that I would make our rodeo trailer work so I spent an afternoon cleaning out the front stall full of hay bales, buckets, grain, you name it..the put it in in case we need it stall over the summer. Then I had to remove the rear tack as a table I made could only fit with the middle part of our trailer removed and the rear saddle rack and tack area taken out. Well, I COULD NOT get one of the hinges out as I am not sure it has ever been taken apart so when my husband got home from working cows, he was sitting in our house with our neighbor and our good friend who helped him that day. I went in and said "Honey, when you get a chance do you think you could help me with that saddle rack, I can't get it out. And then you and I could take the trailer down to Faith and unload, unhook, and go on a mini-version of a date by driving together with NO KIDS." Then a joke is made by our friend about you know that thing you do when your younger..parking..not sure if kids still even do that..anyways. I then proceeded to see if anyone needed any more beverages and thought all was good.....WRONG! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">He continued to visit so I thought I would go try again and I was able to use a hammer and a stake and get it out (and get grease everywhere)! So I was glad I could now haul it out to the pasture and scoop out what I had piled up and I would load up and be on my way! Oblivious that I hit the nail on the head with crabby pants...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">After returning from the pasture with a beautiful, clean trailer...the "really you had to bug me to help you with the trailer after I worked all day" conversation started (pretty much with himself as I just kept working and acting like I was listening:) </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In my mind I am thinking oh he will be done in a bit and help me and we can mosey down the road, unload, bring trailer and pick up back, and I will return in the morning. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Well, NOPE he decided he was going to move creep feeders around. SO I loaded with my one daughter and decided if I could leave at 6:15 in the morning, drive there, unload, unhook and park trailer, she could follow me and we would switch vehicles and she could take the pickup back home so the Ranch Rodeo would not be missed. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Well morning rolls around, I am ready to go early so go out and make sure I have everything needed....AND the pick up won't start. I go get the jumper cables with the electric starter and string two cords I had to gather up around the place AND they are not long enough about 5 feet short...so I walk around looking for another one..find one that is slightly dirty and it is wet outside..so now I am good getting pretty grungy on my hands. Get everything situated and get the pick up started. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">AND get this...as I grab my coffee mug to go refill..my husband sticks his head out the door and says "Honey, did that not start? The lights must have been hooked in wrong. Why didn't you come wake me up for help?" BAHAHA are you kidding me..you couldn't help me with a pin last night and made a big fit over it but you think I am going to ask you now?? My response.."Don't worry I can jump a pick up." I won't tell you what I really wanted to say....</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The day went on..I had a great sale. Got everything loaded and unloaded through sweat, frustration, and anxiety. Stopped at the Ranch Rodeo on the way home to watch. Actually held my husbands hand when done as we walked back to the pickup and trailer and remembered how much I love my handsome, hardworking, husband. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I am sure all you other ranch wives have had experiences like this too and we are strong women and have strong faith, strong love, and strong bites on our tongues to make sure that everything gets done and sometimes with some bumps in the road but it gets done! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">P.S - I worked cows the next Monday..wait until I tell you about that:) Let's just say my new tshirt design definitely was put to use that day! Here is a sneak peek at it!</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, my oldest daughter is now officially a high school graduate! We are so proud of her and excited for her to start on her new adventure next fall. She has worked very hard to get to where she is at and hard work paid off with a full ride scholarship. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So, as many of you know I LOVE to decorate and believe I was a decorator in another lifetime so I took the opportunity for a "party" which our family enjoys to do...and we created a FUN night of friends and food in our beautiful barn. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">This is a picture as the beautiful sun started to set that night. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are some more pictures and then I will share with you how I made it all happen. </span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">This is the front of the barn. I had a chalkboard sign that I use at my barn sales that I put out. It was made from the ends of a baby crib! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The cooler my dad made me. I quickly put together some signs from some old table leafs that I had from a table that I am not sure where it is at! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">AND our benches came from good old SmartLic tubs! I power washed 16 of those things...I was covered in cow manure and molasses! We used boards that we had around the place to make benches. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I bought two beautiful potted plants at our local Norma's Greenery to set outside the doors. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The pillars that I had on both sides I had purchased earlier to make a headboard out of (on my to do list)! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> I strung lights around them for fun. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The round wreath with a red bow is actually a $3 Family Dollar hula hoop with wide burlap ribbon wrapped around it.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I happen to have some beautiful wood shelves I had made for our local fabric store and when it closed I took them out. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">This was our graduate corner. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The old doors are ones that I have collected or people have given me over the years. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I just lined them along the far wall and strung star lights across them. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I then hung art work our daughter had done on some burlap twine with cute clothespins I had gotten from Michaels. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The stars above were fun scrap wood pieces I had and put together. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Congrats large sign was made form a $10 rummage sale canvas picture I had bought. It had scenery</span><span style="font-size: large;"> of mountains and a gold frame. I sanded it down, painted with chalkboard paint, and whitewashed the frame! </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It turned out beautifully! </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">For pictures we hinged two old windows together and strung twine and used colored clothespins to hang pictures. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The tables and chairs are ones I have had from different barn sales I have had or furniture I have made. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I put burlap or off white fabric on the tables, burlap runners in red and turquoise, and added blue ball mason jars to the tables with tea lights in them. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I had these cute chalkboards for tables and used them to write on and put on the tables.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u><i>Now for a few details...</i></u></b></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">To begin with we cleaned out as much as we could and swept..a lot and I mean a lot of dirt out. We pushed things, or my husband did, to the sides..he thought that would be just fine...BUT we have lots of little hands that were coming and machine oil, tools, nuts, bolts, you name it..was not going to be just "left out". That is where the idea of the poles came into play. I created the poles so that they can be moved to our new front deck and back deck to be used as "light poles" during the summer months.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">To make these my daughters and I went to Lowes and picked up 14 medium size planting pots and Quickrete. Once home we went to the local lumber yard and picked up 14 2x2 8 ft long. Next I mixed the Quickrete, had my little guy hold the 2X2 in the pot while I poured about 3 inches of cement in. I then used Gorilla Tape to hold the poles up. However, these were not weighted enough to not tip so I added potting soil to it and filled them once everything was dry. Once on our deck, I will fill with some beautiful flowers!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Now I started this about 2 weeks in advance knowing I would do a little in the morning and a little in the evenings! The next thing I did was add eye hooks to the top of each pole on two sides. I pre drilled the holes and then screwed them in. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Next I put the pots where I thought they would work to cover everything up that needed to be. I then strung some heavy twine rope from each eye hook. I just looped through and tied them. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Next I strung lights from each eye hook (I stapled the lights to the back of the poles as I didn't want to weight any more than needed on the twine. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I bought $.98 table cloths for the back drops. We did some white, white lace, a little red, and a few turquoise. I hung them to the twine with little wooden laundry clips. I used small ones so it would not have to much weight. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The white and turquoise tissue balls I happen to already have on hand. I had purchased them in a party store last summer while our daughter was at a basketball tourney in Minnesota. Not sure why I bought them then, but now I know why:) </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, I think that pretty much summarizes most everything up! We served roast beef sandwiches, corn salad, fresh watermelon, strawberries, and grapes, with all our great sweets. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Thanks for stopping by and we are excited for our daughter to begin her new adventure! She will be heading off to college to play basketball and right not plans on taking up Criminal Psychology. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">These are some pictures of some of the inside items. I also had some "junk" items lined up outside. Friday the weather was gorgeous, in the 60s and I could open the doors...AND we live in South Dakota so Saturday it wasn't..with snow blowing and coming down hard so I had to leave those things inside. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">It took me about a week to set up as this was a "bare" space and I covered the walls with spare fabric that I had or old doors. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">I do plan on trying to do them once a month or so to keep myself busy and customers happy.</span><br />

It is a <i>WINDY</i> spring day here...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> So I have been tossing around the idea of starting my own </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">ranch style furniture line with my passion for furniture but mostly because it is HARD to find sturdy, true wood, furniture any more</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">...while my brain was thinking..sometimes I wish it would just stop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> I had a "man graphic tees are cute" moment..BUT as a ranch wife I can find farming one but no true ranching ones..</span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">AND yes, for those of you who don't know..there is a difference between a farmer and a rancher. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I grabbed a piece of paper and started scribbling quotes that are often used in my home or that we joke about. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was very random </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">(actually on the back of my youngest boys receipt for dental work he had gotten done).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Now, I am pretty creative, I think so anyways...so I spent the next day creating on a computer program..</span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">.and here are some of the designs</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">...now I have already tweaked some and am sure I will continue to change shapes and sayings but it is a start. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Goal: Offer true to the heart Ranch Wife Living sayings...</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Any woman who has had the opportunity to be married to a rancher or living with one, or a ranch mom..knows what these mean...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Good Monday..Easter Monday Morning! Spring is arriving at the Ham Ranch..which means babies. Lots and lots of new babies! We were blessed with great friends and beautiful weather on the day we celebrated that He is Risen! Thanks be to god. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">With a graduate upon us, it seems we will be having more projects on the list than usual. We are hosting a "celebration" at our ranch in less than 2 months, which seems crazy as I remember when this girl was just little! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">I have been wanting to blog more as it is just fun to let other people see our lifestyle. I should blog more during heifer calving season (but it is slightly stressful) and I am very much a single mom during those times but seeing the mommas with their new babies is so worth it..however not seeing my husband much as he is never in the house and sleeps in a little house in the barn, is not fun. I think being a ranch wife during calving is one of the most challenging things I have ever done in my life...each year it challenges us. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">My husband is VERY good at what he does and our cows are blessed to have him as their caretaker. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">DIY Fabric Garland</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Lately I have been wanting to try and make one of these. I see them in campers, hanging on mantles, in a baby room, they are just too darn cute to pass up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I wanted to figure out how much fabric you actually needed and what the cost might be for someone...so when you go to a fabric store, you have an idea.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Fabric of your choice</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> (if using 45 inch wide fabric you will need a total of 1 yard of fabric between all your colors)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Roughly 1-2 hours of your time</span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">The first thing I did was decide on three different fabrics and a string material. I chose some fun pink and a pink yarn. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I cut the yarn to 45 inches, with the plan of making 1 yard of garland and leaving room on the ends to make loops to hang the garland.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Next I laid the fabric on the cutting board and cut two inch strips. I chose 3 different fabrics so I cut 6 - 2 inch strips of each fabric for a total of 36 inches total. I trimmed off any ends.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">After cutting the 2 inch strips, I opened them and laid 3 at a time stacked along a yard stick. I cut at roughly every 9 inches, which gave me 5 strips per cut or 15 strips for the group of 3. I continued to do that until all the fabric was cut.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1_pmcTfQI0Hcgx7I6anL7GYSX3jCLGIg9kg4wXXzRqWqlW8__LBZwPz53y9y8BZKX5tX4vGaY8epU2Fy0Iy4P5IOFS0ZLlaN9u4rM93dnaf8yn3IEPFJqcYUhvmtlHK9CBaEdCNeEjqSP/s1600/1013620_10207891831684797_9001338506811306310_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1_pmcTfQI0Hcgx7I6anL7GYSX3jCLGIg9kg4wXXzRqWqlW8__LBZwPz53y9y8BZKX5tX4vGaY8epU2Fy0Iy4P5IOFS0ZLlaN9u4rM93dnaf8yn3IEPFJqcYUhvmtlHK9CBaEdCNeEjqSP/s320/1013620_10207891831684797_9001338506811306310_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">First, I was inspired by some felt/wool place mats or sometimes they are a rubber type of material...yes, the kind that you can get at your local Dollar Store for about a dollar or two. (I always think, wow....what an inexpensive stencil.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3x19LqtmEmPHaaNYdASoxFokuyqYTr8xP38NknNj5FOvd9BcsmaXiUhprQWTgc1ahDXBZMFfcNv-p1tneyTIOeD5u3_JK2I1Mq82A1KbqJl6rHo_KYXngm45MGwh2dHs1Gy5RhBxin8sF/s1600/20151029_152308.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3x19LqtmEmPHaaNYdASoxFokuyqYTr8xP38NknNj5FOvd9BcsmaXiUhprQWTgc1ahDXBZMFfcNv-p1tneyTIOeD5u3_JK2I1Mq82A1KbqJl6rHo_KYXngm45MGwh2dHs1Gy5RhBxin8sF/s320/20151029_152308.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Next, I had a left over piece of wood from a project I had been working on so I sanded it down. Pallet wood put together would look great too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">I laid the snowflake on the board. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Next I used the Valspar White Spray Paint to spray over the entire board and snowflake. I did this in about three different coats, but randomly so it covered but yet didn't get runny.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicLt6E5sMgxnSGUc8uGolBQYnixcsxg5818bbIVewkZ6hi_FNWDrqndIbFXhl0CUEFNh9HXLTt5XpfVYbdMC18q_UvQKnut5cz2xWLo8oBqopT7U3YCacoN7QkRCvK1ruEdBEctaNtbqCK/s1600/20151029_152321.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicLt6E5sMgxnSGUc8uGolBQYnixcsxg5818bbIVewkZ6hi_FNWDrqndIbFXhl0CUEFNh9HXLTt5XpfVYbdMC18q_UvQKnut5cz2xWLo8oBqopT7U3YCacoN7QkRCvK1ruEdBEctaNtbqCK/s320/20151029_152321.jpg" width="180" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Lastly, I took the Glitter Blast (which you can get at your local hobby and crafts store). I shook it up good and sprayed over the top again. I continued to spray in short spurts until I was satisfied. I made sure to do the edges extra. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">AND...I took the placemat off and there was my finished product. Now hang a wall hook on the back. Maybe add a little saying on it, or just leave it as is. I coated my with Valspar Matted Clear Coat to help keep the Glitter Blast from getting everywhere.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am working on some more with different shapes, painting the backgrounds first, and different colored glitter blast! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />

Well, I just ended one. But as I sit here drinking my coffee in the early morning in the fall I am thankful that I have a family that tags me as THAT mom.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes, I am THAT mom that has rules.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that is not like everyone else's mom.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that has expectations for you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that will tell you what needs to be told, honest not fluffy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that will not tolerate disrespect.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that works full time and has a husband that work full time PLUS so everything you need or want won't come to you instantly, which your generation is not used to.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that thinks you should do chores.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that needs and wants to know who you are with and where you will be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that checks in on your grades each week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that expects you to give 100% in whatever it is that you are doing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT MOM! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">My kids have a habit of saying sometimes when they don't like what they hear "Oh you are THAT mom!" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"> This last week was a long week for my family as many unexpected things all happened at once AND it is one of the busiest times of year for our ranch, which means, I am pretty much a single mom, during the week. I am at peace with that aspect as our ranching is what supports our family, however, sometimes my kids need a "reality" check that life does not revolve around them all the time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">AND when this happened this last week I got the "you work all the time" spill from 2 of my kids. WHEN in reality, I do not. I own my own business which gives me the flexibility to attend ALL of their functions, or run them things during the day, like food for their sporting trips, and pick them up usually, not always, as needed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am okay with being THAT mom, as I am THAT mom who believes my job is not to be your friend but to be your parent and parenting is HARD! It is exhausting when you have an 18 year old who reminds you they are 18 and a 4 year old who can almost out run you but not quite yet, as he has inherited his mothers running genes so I can still keep up or catch!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that uses technology as a tool for consequences! Did you know if you are a verizion customer that you can have family base, best thing ever invented. Every time my children cuss, I shut their phone off for one day! Every minute they are late, it is one day off AND you can even sign up to have them email you each night what they did on their phone during school hours and YES people your children are not innocent. School is to be in school and learn NOT to be texting! You can also shut it off during school hours (I did this last year for awhile, did let them have it on during lunch and free hour) but now they know I WILL do this if they are using during the day too much. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that wants my child to work hard at grades and learning. I am not saying I always expect A's across the board BUT I do expect them to be in the moment learning and trying their hardest and you can't do that if you are having a conversation with someone while your teacher is teaching!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that can financially afford things, however I still think you need to learn what you need not want. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that makes you do chores in order to have "money" to pay for your phone being on, money for sporting trips, extra activities. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that reminds you that you have hard working parents and you need to respectful when they are working and not jump to your I need it now call. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that makes you dress "classy" as my kids would say. No you don't need to show anything off, even if you have it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that makes you dress nicely for church, not because I think you have to, but I think it is respectful and you have the clothes to do it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Yes I am THAT mom that will tell you when something looks to inappropriate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that will support you in everything you do. BUT will not support if you choose to slack in an area or complain about someone else excelling in it over you because they have worked harder than you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that expects when you step into a job, an arena, a court, school that you give your 100% and you are respectful. THAT YOU will challenge yourself and others around you to be better. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that DISLIKES gossip and cattiness so when I see or hear it, it stops. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that will teach you jealousy is wicked and learned at home. RESPECT others for what they are able to do and surround yourself with people better than you, it will make you better!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that will tell you that God is watching. As I do believe in this and do believe things come to those who respect their parents. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am THAT mom and I am PROUD to be THAT mom and not your best friend. Someday you will thank me for being THAT mom! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am THAT mom that would do anything to help you and I am THAT mom that believes in you more than anyone else and I am THAT mom that loves you more than anyone else! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">To all you THAT moms!..THAT away and kudos to you..it is hard to be THAT mom!</span><br />

SO here we are, giving it a try again. I have decided I need to journal or blog as my head thinks of so much while I am busy being a crazy paint lady (have you seen all those cool tshirts..that's me...I paint to keep the crazy away.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I have two major passions in my life: kids (or students) and creativity with furniture. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It is quite a combo and sometimes I have an inner war on where my journey and heart is taking me. As I was thinking about this today it made me think of embracing. I have been thinking a lot about this subject as our oldest daughter who is 18 has battled with this as well. She has had the opportunity to be exposed to much more than many her age and also is quite mature for her age. She was able to live in another community for a while and was so embraced by all her friends, classmates, teachers, and community and where she has had her roots since she was 1 and currently lives is such a battle to feel embraced, I am not sure she has ever felt accepted or embraced the same. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Thinking about this has made me think about embracing all god has given us as individuals and sometimes I think I try to fight my creativity because I am nervous that it won't work. I have found out that the older I have gotten or maybe the wiser I have gotten...that I love to spend time by myself with just my kids and this is what makes my heart whole. I feel the most inner peace when I am at the ranch, hanging out, cleaning up and picking up here and there, while doing some furniture projects, AND being able to love on or visit with my kids in between all of this. Going on bike rides in the middle of the day with your child is what life is all about! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So anywho...I will try to post more about life, junking, kids, trying to be a good wife, housekeeper (notice I said trying...as I think we all struggle with that) teaching, being a business owner, passion, cooking and oh so much more! </span><br />

Anyhooo....My daughter Meza and I spent last Saturday (the first one I had off in over 3 months ...being a mom of 4, coach, teacher, wife, and manager of two households now.......has made it busy) going JUNKING.........I feel in love again. I forgot how much i LOVE to do this creative work. How much pleasure I get in using the creative juices that flow in my brain and keep it going one hundred miles an hour - much like my body! Anyways ......we were able to go to Sale on State street in Belle Fourche where many other creative ladies showed us their work and I came home revitalized that I NEED to continue to do this passion and I am not being selfish by allowing myself and little freedom and down time in doing it. <br />
<br />
I scored some great finds that day and went hunting for some cool shirts to make infinity scarves out of! Well, I will try to keep posting on some of the things I have been working on or if I have anything for sale! <br />
Hopefully I will be able to join someone or something with an occasional sale once a month! <br />

PLUS I told him when school is out I will be done with everything in one week (I wish)! BUT wishful thinking! <br />

I just thought it would be fun to share some pictures from our Day 1 branding. Tomorrow will be Day 2 of the 1st weekend and next weekend we will be at it again! <br />
Anyways, we got up in the morning and I started cooking at 6:20 and had some coffee here and there, got everyone up and fed. The 3 oldest and Brady headed out to get the horses to gather up the first group to be branded! While they did this Burke and I made corn salad and barbques.<br />
Here are some pictures of them bringing them into the corral to wait before they headed out to get the second group!<br />

Once everything got in the corral, I had to go on a "beverage" run over to the little store where we get our mail about 4 miles away and then get back to cooking! I finished off the meal with hard boiled egg noodle salad, blueberry cobbler, cherry cobbler, homemade whipped topping, boiled smashed rosemary broiled potatoes, watermelon, and barbequed baked beans to add to the already made corn salad and barbeque sandwiches! YUM YUM! I think I cooked for 4 hours straight! </div>

I got the back deck all set up with tables and chairs for everyone and once we ate, the kids jumped on the trampoline before we headed back out to finish up! Hope you enjoy the rest of the pictures! LOVE BRANDING...nothing like it. Now that we are done with Day 1 of weekend 1, we will begin all over tomorrow with Day 2 and then next weekend again!

Life has been a whirlwind ...but the countdown is on...to TWO things. School year coming to an end....I LOVE teaching but am also looking forward to diving into all the neat pieces I have collected over the past few months and get them done. AND the count down is on for me to put some of the pieces I do in a shop in the town closest to us. I am excited to get some pieces moved out as my bedroom looks like a furniture store. <br />
<br />
I am also trying to figure out how to get a place for me to work SOMEWHERE on this big old ranch...I am sure I can think of something...already have ideas....now the plan is to get the hubby on board! <br />
<br />
Well, I am currently working on this old dresser that has knicks, scratches, and even some drawers that are missing a small corner piece. I had a vision for what I wanted to do and once I started painting it, I realized it had more than I thought...so now...leave it rustic and banged up and incorporate it into the piece or start over and fill them all?? Well, will have to decided and finish it up! Check back to see!!<br />
<br />
ALSO....RANCH CHIC CORRAL WILL BE SELLING THE FOLLOWING T-SHIRTS...leave me a comment if you would like one!! <br />
Shirts come in Jr. Fitted Tees - which are small - XL (order one size larger than a regular fitted tee). They also come in unisex sizes from S- 2 XL. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Okay, so I made this from an ugly canvas I got at our local thrift shop and then painted it. The items to make LOVE came from a box that got thrown in on some items I was bidding on at an auction....you auction lovers know what I mean....all that extra you get when they keep tossing boxes in while your bidding on a different box! Well, anyways there were some cool finds in the box of plumbing supplies.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now for LOVE...so I got this done and it was sitting in our laundry room (where I have now overflowed into from the mud room) and my husband says...."Hmmm...is that from my stuff?" I respond..."No, it is from one of the boxes of stuff I got from that auction." Him.."Oh, well just wondering because copper is worth alot." I just smiled and said "LOVE". </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Well I hope you find LOVE in your day today! I will be taking this piece of JUNK ART to the Mobridge Craft Fair with me!!</span></div>

Well, I am bound and determined to find myself one this summer. The great part is...I already have a GREAT old vintage car to go with it (1954 Chrysler New Yorker). It is SWEET and we are going to get it out and get it going this summer. Well, wouldn't it look even better with a cute trailer on the back? I heard a He** Yes I think! <br />
So, here is how my journey has gone. I know it is not going to just be all fun and giggles, that I want one that isn't too expensive and am willing to put the elbow grease into it. The key is finding one that is within my price range and getting it to our ranch. So I have done searching online, but then found out most of the best options have come from just keeping my eyes open as I drive around the country or in the little towns we go through. Many treasures just sitting around....and with cash in hand...many takers. I have inquired about 3 but only found 1 that I really liked. <br />
Well, here is some fun inspiration for you all this morning. I am excited to continue to share my journey with you on this trailer hunt. (Many of you know how my mine works, so I keep thinking what a fun addition to Ranch Chic Corral, redone trailers every know and then...we will see about that...the husband thinks furniture and rust stacked up is annoying...not sure what he will think of old campers.) <br />

This weekend I have had the opportunity to have time to work on quite a few projects...man is my brain going...wish I could just paint and be creative all day long, every day! BUT I also love teaching and am not willing to give that up yet..although only 21 days until summer vacation for my students and own kids. </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you have been following me on facebook you will know that I have vintage camper fever...my oldest daughter does not...and her and I and our littlest spend most of our summer weekends traveling and they would be the ones who would use it with me the most. Watch for a fun post tomorrow with different revamped trailers! BUT today I will post some pictures of projects I will have at the Mobridge Summer Craft Show on Saturday! I will post more as they all get completed.</span></div>

I have not been on blogging for quite some time as my "job"- 5th grade teacher has been busy and my "other job" -ranch wife during calving season has been even busier. I have a MINOR break this morning and can now write a little about my "love job" - junking and being creative with furniture. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This week I have had to make some major decisions when it comes to jobs and minor decisions on things I love to do. BUT one decision I know is that I LOVE this picture and really want to do this in my yard this year! I even have the perfect place for it! We will see if it actually gets done between rodeo, junkin, flea markets, Junk Round Up, and basketball tournaments!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Next thing is I would like to redo this old barn into a workshop for myself instead of painting in my mud room and laundry room! I already started cleaning it all out ...once it warms up more I am going to finish cleaning it out and get to work! Any volunteers? ALSO I have SO SO SO many tires I am going to make a play gym for my kids with some, planters with others, and swings with some and I am guessing will have even MORE left over if anyone wants some!</span><br />

I am guilty of taking a blogging break to get some things in order for getting Ranch Chic Corral into some stores! YEAH!!! And can't lie to also watch my kids play basketball, and wrestle and it is CALVING season at Ranch Chic Corral which makes our lives slightly altered. <br />Okay so have you seen the new spray glitter.....Awesome, right I know! Anyways I have all these cool ideas going around in my head for them and had some old chairs that were pretty neat and I couldn't find the spindles to replace the ones broke so I decided I would DECORATE or should I say GLITTER for Spring colors! Well, my idea was in my head and I started with a base coat and then used the spray glitter, which I thought was going good until.......I didn't shake it enough first so had random spots. THEN the can really needed to be shook quite often while using and did not do, so more random spots. THEN the nozzle broke causing it to DRIP onto the chair...YIKES.........SO long story short, this is one of the chairs and it has been one of the LEARNING projects that I was anticipating to take 2 days and it took more like 7 days! But being a teacher, I am glad I learned and am going to know how to use it better the next time! <br />I think this chair would like great on a porch for spring or in an entry way with a white enamel pot on the seat with some beautiful flowers in it! </span><br />

Let me know if there is anything you are looking for and I can keep my eye open for you. Some upcoming projects I am working on are: small side table, small table with stool, chair, bench or coffee table, large set of shelves with storage on bottom, 2 dressers....once I pick up all my finds I will have even more fun projects...just need more time. I am also working on locations to have some of the furniture so you can stop by and see it. As I get those locations I will let you know! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This table is $50 and was inspired by my youngest boy Burke. He LOVES to play on our two end tables and takes or breaks anything we have on them. The bottom of this is painted in a light white chalk paint and the top is CHALKBOARD paint...this way your toddlers can stay entertained! There is only 1 available. BUT if you would like one and it is sold let me know and I can find another and custom make one for you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is a slightly distressed shelf with 4 total shelves (2 adjustable). The top has rustic square clavos and the sides have a cross. This is not a real sturdy piece. It is very light weight. If you are going to use to store heavier items you would need to secure it to the wall. It is done in rustic red, tan/brown, and cream chalk paint. I am asking $50. </span></div>

I finally got done the business card. Now anyone who knows me knows that I made about 5 of them and loved them all but then went with my whimsy gut! I will post a picture below. Hope it brings a smile to your face like it does to mine! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Also today I have an appointment out of town (getting out of the boondocks) and I am going to do a little South Dakota Pickin at some places! So excited to see what I can find and upscale for you all!! I will post pictures tomorrow of my new finds...won't be too many as my hubby is joining me and he doesn't actually have the same "vision" for old furniture like I do. His vision has to do with four legs and something that says moo... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I hope you all have a great day and CONGRATS to DAWN CARSON from Killdeer, ND who was the winner of the green mirror when we reached 200 likes. Maybe I will find something fun to upscale today to give away when we reach 500 likes! What do you think?</span><br />

I am waiting patiently...impatiently for some projects to dry and then will get them up on the for sale page! BUT I wanted to share with you all two paint projects that I have complete for my home! The first one is a cute distressed small dresser that sits in our entryway. The next one is one of those old record players (and yes it still works!) that is made from laminate wood! I hope you all stay warm and enjoy a good cup of coffee. We are almost to 200 likes on facebook too! When we get their we will give away the mirror!!</span><br />
