Thursday

Because I wanted to teach our children about 'real' farm animals, we went to the Douglas County fair this week to watch my nephew show his Holstein heifers. We had a lot of fun, and enjoyed seeing a lot of people from when I was a kid showing in Douglas County!

A friend of ours gave us a bag of hand-me-down clothes this week. Preston was very excited with this Power Ranger costume that was in there. He has been wearing it for 3 days now - I did make him briefly take it off so we could wash it. I am not sure it got dry before he had it back on again!

Madison purchased herself a pair of sunglasses from walmart online. Once they were delivered she decided that they made her look too much like a giant fly, so they quickly became Quincy's newest fashion accessory.

This is Jenius, Colin's hilarious pig. He is not too proud to follow a bucket of feed anywhere you want to take him with it. He probably needs to go pick up some dignity! The pigs are getting close to that show/sale time. We have mixed feelings....on one hand we will be sad to see them go, they are feeling like old friends by now, on the other hand, the bigger they get the more they poo!
