Christmas (of course), was hectic, but wonderful, as always. I look forward to Christmas all year long, and in the blink of an eye, it has already passed. I absoloutely LOVE Christmas! It is such a fun time to just sit around and talk to your family, eat all the food until you make yourself sick, watch everyone open the presents they got, and to unwrap the gifts you have been so excited to open since the day they were put under your tree. And then, once all the excitment is over with, you have got the New Year to look forward to. (Keep in mind, we are also taking care of our 70 animals while all this goes on...) It's always fun (for me, anyway), to stay up late with every one and wait for the clock to hit 12:00, or wait until you can hit your nice and comfy bed. Or for some, the New Year's eve party is getting even more fun. Me, well, I like to stay up until I feel like falling asleep, which is usually about 1:00. So, it's the New Year, and now it's time to go see Sue and pick up her duck, maybe sleep over, give her late Christmas presents, find some bingo prizes, play marbles, drink apple cider and then go home. Then, it's time to go back to school, and worry about the sheepies and goaties and chikenies (wait, no, that's not right...), chickens, I mean. Anyway, I hope everyone had a great Christmas and an exciting New Year's Day, just like we did.
This is where Caroline and I (Grace) like to write about things that will be done, have been done, or are being done on the farm. Enjoy!
Stories from the kids.
Sue said:....... Hi Grace, There is just nothing cuter than a baby rabbit. I'll bet that you and Caroline will be camped out at the cage when the wee bunnies arrive. So, if I wanted to purchase a bunny from you, what would I need to know about care and feeding?
Sue also said:...... Grace, you are going to be Queen of the Blog with your laptop! I'm having fun following your adventures.
