I have so enjoyed
my visit to your blog . . . so peaceful & positive! Wonderful
I'm just doing some blog-surfing and I thought I'd stop in and see what your journal is all about.
It's very informative and interesting.
The Harris County 4-H group came for a visit to the farm today as a part of their summer activities program. We took a tour and met all the animals...Little Barney the new goat kid got a lot of petting as well as the kitten who sure didn't want to get left out of the attention. Miss Scarlett too followed right along just to be sure not to miss anything. Babe Lala, our new sheep, let us know she too likes butter cookies with a big "BABA"....Everyone wanted to pet Miss Piggy (Tocina), but she's not quite ready to be a petting kind of pig yet...The horses neighed a morning hello to all... Then we took a tour past the poultry pens and on to the garden to see how the vegetables were growing...
Finally we made it to the gold fish pond, grabbed something cool to drink...and took a dip in the cement pond...pool...and then topped it off with a picnic lunch and a little more splashing around.
The kids seemed to have a lot of fun...check out the pictures on the events page of our website.
