I had to retire my beloved leopard print boots. The rubber cracked and now they leak. I don't want any chicken poop oozing in so I put them to pasture as flower planters. My new pair of boots are on their way. Hopefully the ones I ordered are made a little better. They are olive green with hearts. Got to stay stylish!

Bunnies are getting BIG!

Joe and I went to the 4H fair yesterday. (That is actually where Joe was caught trying to kiss a goat). Anyway, they had bunnies there, and based on body size and shape and coloration I think that my bunnies are Polish bunnies. Polish bunnies actually originated in Belgium so why they are called Polish I have no idea. But according to what I have read they will not get too big. Maybe 3- 3 1/2 lbs. We also saw the type of chickens that I am getting. They were really pretty and friendly. Only 13 more days. I can't wait!

I Told You!

I told you that goat would steal my husband! Actually its a different goat. The picture is not that good because I had to take it quick on my camera phone to catch him in the act.

Busy Weekend

Julie and the triplets visited over the weekend. It was kid city! We had all 6 of the grand kids here and of course one was sick. Jax was not feeling well with a pretty nasty head cold. I tried to keep him quarantined from the other kids so we didn't spread the germs. There was lots of 4 wheeler riding and wagon pulling going on. Sippy cups out the wazoo. I felt like I needed a sippy cup. I don't know how Julie does it. The kids are good kids, but one is always needing something. She never gets a break. They are getting so big with big personalities. I took one of the bunnies out of their cage so they could pet him. They were sitting in their train wagon so I went down the line to let each one see the bunny. I started with Connor who reached right out and petted the bunny with no reserve. Then I went to Harrison who reached out two fingers and tapped the bunny a couple times. Then on to Addie who was shaking her head no before I even bent over. Sooooo cute! I could see it in Joe's face how happy he was to have them here. And talk about energy, he was pulling them in the train wagon and taking them rides on the 4 wheeler. I didn't think I did that much and I was exhausted. Apparently early Sunday morning there was a huge electrical storm that woke the babies up at 5am. I didn't even know it rained I was so sounded asleep. I think it was a fun weekend for everyone but snotty nose Jax.

Breaking News!

Toby, Daisy and Happy had to be separated when a fight broke out in the exercise yard. Fur was flying and squeaks were heard. It is not yet known if it was a fight or a mating ritual.

A Mother's Love

Bryan brought me 3 pair of pants and a shirt all in a state of disrepair. Zippers, buttons missing, holes etc..... I thought; why doesn't his wife fix these? Then I remembered that she gives me her sewing projects too. I thought about showing him how to fix his clothes himself, although that would be a lot of work and frustrating. He still needs me. Music to a mother's ears. So I secured the zipper, mended the holes, fixed the waistband, hemmed sleeves and replaced a button. Oh, and on the button I velcroed a pink rhinestone flower. Just to let him know that favors come at a price.
