As Luck Would Have It

We had a gorgeous three-day weekend.  The temperature was in the high 30's to low 40's and while outside working I had to strip my jacket off.  It was T-shirt weather.  We spent it alternating between continuing to work on our tiling project, driving to Nicholasville, KY, to pick up another used trampoline I bought from a Craigslist ad to make a Trampoline All-You-Can-Eat Buffet for the boys, picking up a round bale of hay, and getting the round bale  and the trampoline set up in the boys' pasture.

We picked up the round bale on Sunday evening.  By the time we got home it was starting to get dark and the ground was very squishy form all the moisture Mother Nature has bestowed upon us lately.  We decided to wait until Monday morning to roll it out of the bed of the truck with hopes the ground would have frozen during Sunday night so we wouldn't leave deep ruts in the pasture with the truck.

First thing Monday morning we rolled the bale out and the boys made a run for it.  I recorded a video (I don't make many videos, hence the jumpiness of it).

Another gorgeous evening sunset...a perfect ending to a perfect weekend.

And, as luck would have it, perfect timing...what I woke up to this morning and it is still snowing but the boys' hay is covered and dry.
