E I E I O and on this farm she had a....

Chicken--- My chickens are now laying eggs! We are up to 9 a day. Kinda neat! Collin wakes up early every morning to see how many we got. The other day he was putting them in his pockets so that he could ride the 4-wheeler back up the hill and they broke...smile

Dogs-- Chili is still my funniest dog. The other day he was left out of the crate when we left. He goes on mischievous travels when we do this. When we came home he had totally destroyed these table trinkets I had. While I was picking them up I had to laugh because when I looked at the end table he left me his bone. He must have been carrying his bone and traded.

Bunnies- Now that I am allergic to them we have two running free in the yard. That way I do not have to clean the cage nor get close to them--sort of... I get up really early, earlier than anyone in the family. I buy vanilla wafers from the dollar store and train the animals with them. The dogs hear the box and sit all around me now the bunnies come looking for me in the morning for a treat. It is very satisfying being needed for a cookie.

By the way did I tell you how proud I am of my boys?? Collin was in service with a 25yr old who was afraid to talk to some hunter guys at a camp. That boy trompped right up there and had a good ole boy conversation with them. The 25yr old was shocked. Clancy --- he is a real gentleman. I couldn't be prouder of my 15 yr old.
