Welcome - Our Moffat Family Blog

Well, sad day here.. for the first time in my life, I don't own one cow!! Wow... I wonder if I can sleep tonight... I'm really sad. I had thought running cattle is something I could do like Dad, till my number was called.. but to keep family peace, it was time....
Talked with Phil just now and he said that Tammy was doing ok and is to see the
Dr. in two months. She had a spell with her heart and we all went into prayer mode... quickly.. and seems to have helped.. right Uncle Ivan??
Jon and family might come see us this week end and we are excited.. this is the balloon fest in stillwater this weekend.. will let everyone know when we can take balloon rides..
Jake is "burning rod" and having a ball! His instructor is trying to get him another 500 dollar scholarship.. and he is excited about that!
Saw Great grandma Moffat today. She is still having a time with her shoulder... She was going to have the Dr. check and see if the xray showed anything, but forgot yesterday... Grandparents Day at schools if this Friday. Ann is heading to Andrew's and Great grandma is heading to Austyn's... and then it will be Kaitlyn and Madison added to the mix.. haha.. love it ... love it...
I can see clear up here Uncle Ivan and Aunt Freda's excited face about taking the train with Joanna and Clinton. Bet is was a blast. I sure hope I get to someday.. think that would be cool... even just to go a short ways would be a lifetime dream come true.. to ride the iron horse...

Welp.. all I know for now.. more later...

love to all... S

from Heather...
