Day 3

We went to Huber’s Orchard yesterday. There were games for the kids and animals for them to pet. Goats, Llamas, ducks, geese, deer, rabbit’s, peacocks, turkeys, you name it and they pretty much had it. They jumped on this huge bouncy thing and slid on a slide that was HUGE!!! Fought over who’s turn it was to drive the tractors. I think Conner rode the most. He would just hop on with one of the other kids. Of course Madyson got hurt in the first 20 minutes. It was my fault though. I told her to hold the corn in her hand and the swan would eat it out of her hand. Well, she listened, and a swan did come get the corn, he also just tried to take her whole hand too. Here is the culprit. After that the kids pretty much kicked at them to get them to stay away. Thank God for Linn and her mean voice or they would have just kept coming back for more.

After that she just threw it at them.



We loved the horses.




We can’t forget the goat’s. And the baby twin goats. We should have stuck all the twins next to the little twin goats. Linn, if you go back you should do that. They kept hiding from me so all I could get was their butts








I was feeding the goats and looked up and saw this guy above my head. I moved real quick. Dana had to warn Michael to move so he didn’t get pooped on.




And we got to pet and feed Deer.


Linn was the only adult to jump. The rest of us didn’t want to take our shoes off.

There is definitely more to come but since I leave tomorrow I want to spend some time with my Grandma so I’ll just write more later. Not to mention Tim hasn't had enough sleep so I have to keep an eye on him so he doesn't sneak away to a bed somewhere.



Todays favorite picture. Madyson the goat, Eden the sheep, Regan the horse, Natalie the cow, and Conner the pig.

Tattle Tales

I was leaving Mom’s house Sunday and was a little stressed from fighting with the kids and was just ready to get home. I wasn’t paying much attention to anything but driving and not killing my kids, when suddenly I see something over by the woods. At first I thought it was fake because I haven’t seen any close up for about 2 years now when I can across 2 baby ones in the middle of the road playing. What was it I saw?

Isn’t she just beautiful! She stood there looking at us for like 5 minutes till I finally caved to my kids and honked the horn to “get her to move.” She was so fat though. You can see it in this picture. Look at how her belly just hangs down so low.

I hope she’s pregnant because I would love some shots of the babies. After she left I felt better and more relaxed so we ended up driving around a little looking at every ones flowers. Which, as you know, I love to do.
Bye!

This same day Conner fell and scratched his arm. I have never done the band-aid thing with him, but this time I did. Washed his boo-boo off, then put some peroxide on it, then a band-aid. He was facinated the whole time. He also kept that band-aid on for 3 days straight and anytime Tim or I would ask him what he was doing or just say "Hi Conner!" he would hold up his arm and show us his boo-boo. In this pic I said "Cheese!" and he did this........

You'll also notice the crazy person in the back ground cheesing it up. That would be my hammy Mady. We hate seeing that stupid passy in his mouth so we are trying to get rid of it, but everytime he cries and won't stop we cave and hand it over. I mean, who wants to listen to that crap all the time. Not Me!
