Thunderstorm

 On our walk this morning we organized the Meister Christmas. Diane is in charge this year but since I was in charge last year and Covid shut us down the Sceggel family will help with all the set up. It will be held Sunday.  Right after the walk I left for Sam's Club to pick up the rolls for the supper Sunday along with the gifts needed and a bunch of other stuff. I bought 12 steaks for Christmas day dinner as they had sirloin on sale and as soon as I got home the freezer was cleaned out and the steaks frozen along with the other meat purchased. Then it was time to start making the Christmas goodies for the Christmas party.  That took the rest of the morning and a few hours of the afternoon. Around 3:00 pm a booking came in for the apartment for today. I went up to the barn immediately to clean the barn aisle and turn the lights on in the apartment along with the heat. Right after I got back to the house the couple that booked arrived.  Sure wish there would have been a little more time to get the heat up but thankfully it doesn't take too long to recover.  It was raining most of the day. The weanling's buckets had to be emptied before they could be fed. Those buckets are not inside their shelter like the stallion's buckets.  Back at the house all the present wrapping was started and finished. This evening it was my turn to stay with mom and provide dinner.  We  had bbq ribs, egg rolls, salad and for dessert some of the goodies I made this afternoon. Mom and Karin both  declared it delicious.  Rhoda posted the picture below of some of the grands on a hike.

We are having a thunderstorm tonight and it is almost 60 degrees. So strange for the 10th day of December.
