The Funny Farm

Well, we do live on a funny farm, and absolutely love it! We sold our subdivision living, brand new home 4 years ago and bought this 50 year old home with ground just so we could "live out". I wouldn't go back for anything. We love living out here. Since Syd is 8 now, she can do stock shows. Chad of course is in his glory. I am trying to get into it, but...... well they all look the same to me!! We got Syd a lamb this past week for the Benjamin and Spanish Fork stock show. Syd is so excited, she named her lamb cotton and has been working with it every night, pulling it around on a halter. I think Chad wanted her to show a steer since that is his "happy place" , but I convinced him that she is a little, well too little to be pulling a big old fat steer around. The Benjamin show has a jr. show that Devin can participate in, but we are still up in the air on whether it will be a bummer lamb ( a small lamb) or a baby steer. Both kids are eating it up, and look forward to working with the animals after school. I think its been really good for them and teaching them a little responsibility!
