Meet our new chickens

Abe: I love our chickens.  Do you know they're very social animals?   We just got our second set of new ones, and they're really cute now since they're just 2 months old and it's just nice having some more girls in the family.

Our old chickens had to go 'cause they stopped laying eggs and Mom and Dad said they're not pets, they're egg producers.  

My favorite is "Lily", who is going to lay BLUE eggs - how exciting!   The white one is "Snowflake" and the red one is "Foxy Roxy."

Come on over and you can hold one, too.

Update: Foxy Roxy fed the neighborhood raccoon family.  But don't worry, we replaced her with "Dinah Blue"!

Turkey Day

Koh: Jody and Martin came over for Thanksgiving this year, and of course Grandma, too.   So we got this BIG turkey and Abe prepared it, Mommy roasted it, Daddy carved it and everyone else brought pies over.   We ate lots of yummy food then had ALL THREE pies for dessert!   Look at this nice table for 7.

Afterwards we played a new game, Candyland that Jody brought over as a gift.   We like that game, especially me 'cause I won.  

We went on two hikes today and found a newt and a big downed tree we had to clear from the trail by everyone pushing.

 

Halloween

Koh: I'm a pirate ARRRRRRGGHHHHHHH!

Abe: I'm a super hero Buzz Lightyear!

But scariest of all is our mom - LOOK AT HER!  

Get away, quick!
