P.s and a big thank you to TT adivsors, Quy and stuff for their understanding and for this great opportunity to share our homes and live with you all.  :hug:

Hugs Kassie

Thank you all for your - excitement -    for seeing the live report.   

Deb you are a doll. I am giggling here. You need not worry dear. Our horses are very well mannered. I would not have it any other way. But. You would not want to see me at the rodeo.      I am a cowgirl truly at heart and I have at times scared my family in some of the things I have done. But I love it. 
 
My husband was a broncrider for years and I was a barrel racer and I also did cow penning,  that is a lot of fun! -  and a lot other events. 

We product a Rodeo each year and it can be kinda scary when my husband goes in with the bulls, but you learn not to think about it.   
I have even been over the top of the bull shoots when the bulls go flying threw and my husband gives me the look, but never says a word. We have an understand in the rodeo world. Don't say it! and It won't happen!

Now - I do have some bad news. I will have to hold off on my report, do to weather here. It is too wet to ride and have the bear out in the rain. I have advised TT and there will be another TT member posting her's next. I do apologize that I am unable to do the report now, but I want it to be most entertaining  for you all, and do that we need better weather. I will be working on it as we get nice days.

I hope you understand and I look forward to sharing this with you at a later date.
I look forward to the next report from who ever it is.   

Hugs Kassie

Hi everyone,

I read this post in one of the post from last week and thought it would be a nice idea to share where we are all in the Oregon area. No addresses are required.     
Just to get to know you better. Maybe some of us are close enough to each other to meet and share some time together. 
I will start. 

I am in Salem South near Turner. I am about 5 miles out of downtown.
Wildcat we are very close to each other. If you ever want to get together and meet that would be very nice. 

I know there are more Oregon gals out there - Portland - Lincoln City - Backwoods of Oregon ? -  not sure were that is    but those Gollies sure are sweet.
etc. etc.

So girls come out and meet your neighbor. 

Hugs Kassie

Hayley I have yet to make a bunny. I'm in!

I just hope with all the projects I am working on I can get it done in time. I will do my best.

Looking forward to seeing all the bunnies!

Hi Kerrie and everyone,

I will be going too. I am very excited to go. I will be showing two kinds of art work. Bears and Art Dolls. That is kinda why I am not on here so much anymore - work - work - work. but you still got to play with your friends too!   

I have been told it is very highly recommended.
Cool - Lisa! You have been - that is great. 
I look forward to seeing you both there.  :dance:  :dance:

I also would be interested in a bear swap. 

Hugs Kassie

Judi,

That was so great! I just love the dancing! You were on the World's Funniest Videos. That is so cool, I watch that show a lot, it just cracks me up. I must have missed the one you guys were on. I would have remembered the "Dancing for the Cows". !!!   

Judi , it was really nice to get to know you even better. Thank you Judi and your family for sharing, it has been informative, moo educational, and a hoot!

Big Hugs
Kassie

That is so cool ---girl!!!!!!! me a smiling..... :dance:  :dance:  :dance:     

Hi Judi,     
     
Great third day report. Wow! I have been around dairy farms from time to time in my life, but I had no idea that all that went on in one day.       
No really. That is truly amazing - I had no idea what was really involved in dairy farms. I have a even bigger respect for dairy farms and dairy farmers.     

Now - that is totally amazing! Holy Cow!!!! How many cows again? I don't remember the number, I would have to go back and find it.  I can't even remember the number of cows never mind remembering all their names!  Mark that is truly amazing!     
     
   

Glad neither one of you got hurt. Judi. (More you thro - sorry your not  replaceable.)   

Are cows like horses? They really don't like stepping on other living things. I just hate that in movies were they make it look like horses or cows will run you down - and they like it. My experience with horses is. That may happen, but I don't believe they want to do it. Well, maybe the odd one. But, in general, horses will go out of their way to not step on a person or living thing.   

I just love "red" she is so pretty. Well, that is not her name. What is her name Mark? If I was to get a cow again I would love this color. 

Thank you Judi and Mark and kids for sharing this day with all of us. 
Rachel, Jordan and Joey. Tell me were your favorite places are on the farm? I remember growing up on the ranch and I had a couple of favorite places. I would love to hear about your's.  But, maybe I will just have to wait and see if that is in tomorrows report. "What farmers do for fun! "*wink*

Hugs to the Paul Family.  :hug:  :hug:  :hug: and the cows....

Thank you Jane. His fur is kinda cool. Sonya of Sunniebears bought some from me I can't wait to see her bear she makes out of it. I will let everyone know when I get them up on the sites. I am excited about the events, but it is hard to wait. I will be posting bear head boy soon. I better stop call that bear that or it may end up his name.

Hi Everyone, I wanted to explain why I have not been able to share my bears with you all. Believe me when I tell you it is not because I don't want to. I can't tell you how hard it is to not be able to post my new creations on TT and share them with you all. At times it is like sitting on pins and needles of excitement. 

Well, the reason is because I am entering a few events and can't put them anywhere else online. You all know how that works. I have very few new bears at this time so I just can't show ya all.  But believe me, it is driving me nuts!   

Because, I have been making bears for such a short time, I just don't have the inventory of bears I would like to have. Besides the group of bears that I made when I first started. If any of you remember when I first came to TT. I told you about how I had made about 30 bears in a very short time. It was about one bear per day almost. Making them for a trade show I was invited to go to. I don't really like to classify them as my new bears. I look at them as my starter bears.    Also .... if any of you remember the "bear head" - Do you all remember this guy? - well it has got a body now, and it is a boy! Thank you all for your input. He will be one coming soon to TT. That is one I will be sharing with you all.

Just wanted to let you know  I am not keeping any secrets!  Well, maybe just a couple. *wink*
