Battleship mania

As I was sitting in the tractor waiting to escort Joey and the feedtruck, I watched this wild farm cat search the bales for lunch.  You might ask why did Joey need an escort to feed cows. Well, I drove the tractor to pull out Joey when he got stuck in the snow and mud.  As a bonus, I got to plow snow on the road and in the pasture because the tractor has a blade on it.


Joey had to treat a few calves while we were in the pasture. I had the camera ready because sometimes it turns in to a rodeo event when Joey is chasing calves in the snow and mud. Unfortunately, there was no comic relief this time.


The game Battleship has made a return to Thielenville.  This game actually started with lots of kids playing, but ended up as a very competitive game between Kelly and Matt.  You probably will not believe this, but Matt cheated!!

I tried to take a nice photo of Matt and Lori, but Matt couldn't take his eyes off the Battleship game.

Sam made a sneak attack on his dad Joey.

I like this photo because it shows Anna and her dad Joey playing while Sam is ready to attack from the end of the couch. AND, in the background you can see Brooklyn and Garrett playing the piano.

This tells you how intense the Battleship game was. Kelly was desperately trying to find Matt's last ship.  Unknown to Kelly, Matt had moved one of his ships halfway through the game.

Yes, Matt "won" the first game, but since he cheated it does not count. I won the second game fair & square! I am the current Battleship Champion!

You forgot to mention the digital surveyance that Mary Kay was offering Kelly. I don't think it was Matt that was cheating!
