Rewind

Okay, so I have joined the dark side....the blogging world. Next stop....Pintrest! Lol. I never thought I would be one to start a blog, but I find myself with extra time on my hands, with severe bouts of boredom. Shhhh dont tell Ben or he will come up with something for me to do ;)

So before I jump right in to our crazy lives here on the far, lets bring you up to speed. This is gonna be fast, so hang on....(rewind sound)

On June 5th, 2011 a strange farm boy presented me with a bright shiny piece of metal and rock, and asked if I would like to become a farmer's wife. As fate would have it, I said yes. So Ben and I were married on August 20th, 2011 in the Cardston Alberta Temple. It was the happiest day of my life, promising so many more to come. We moved into a little house in Redcliff, not farm from the farm, and that is when the Huber homestead began.

That year I attended school while he attended to the feedlot. He became a buisness owner, establishing Eldorado Charolais, with about 30 head. I quickly became a farm wife, with late meals, unknown schedules, muddy carpets, and one smelly poop covered husband.

Our happy homestead has since moved out onto greener pastures on the home farm across from the in-laws. We have three little kitties and one beast of a dog, Maverick. We got Mav as a puppy, and have grown up together. He is still a little wiggling pup, but he is the best with kids! He will fight and wrestle with Ben, but when it comes time to be with kids, he just lays down and lets them maul him lol. I am so happy that he is so good with kids because in 102 day, on December 16th 2012, he will have a brand new little baby playmate!

Ten tiny twinkle toes will be added to our little homestead this Christmas, and they will be covered with pretty pink baby booties. We are expecting a little baby girl, and we have never been so excited! I am 25 weeks, and desperately counting down the days tilll we can see our little girl. You wouldnt know I was that far along, and Ben keeps asking "When are you gonna get REALLY fat?" I have a bit of a bump, and I look pregnant, but I really just want to be one of those cute little pregnant laddies who looks like the swallowed a basketball. Lol I know I shouldnt complain, cuz it only means that much less weight to lose after, but I just want to show off our little gift to everyone.

It is so magical to be able to feel our little baby moving around inside as she grows. I love just laying there and watching my tummy ripple and bulge and twitch, and to feel parts of her body pushing against it. Sometimes we can even feel her head pushed up against my belly button. Its so cool, and so weird at the same time. The only not cool things about it are the back pain and heartburn and excessive tiredness. But it is all worth it, and I try not to complain.

There is so much more going on here on the Huber homestead in our day to day lives, so stay tuned.
