So what do you do when you are bored? Parker was saying how bored he was and this is what we came up with. Flipping the ping pong paddle back and forth as you hit the ball and counting. At first Parker got 3. By the end it was 169. He won! Who knew that doing this could work up a sweat?
It all started between Tan and Cas bragging about who had the biggest mouth. Now is that something to brag about? Who do you think won?
All of you saw Parks pen he made last year. Amazing that he made that by himself with no instruction so we couldn't say no to chicks after all that effort right? But actually I wanted some as well. Friday morning the store got some chicks in so Parker and I dashed to get them and got back minutes before his bus came for school. The first chick pictured is Lex's favorite. It will hatch blue eggs. Cool huh? The other 2 could be roosters. I love silkies (they are pretty yes these chickens are definitely styling chickens) so I'm taking a chance on them. It's 50-50. We'll know in 8 weeks rather or not they might be someone's dinner. Agggh I hope not. We had a black one but while at church it got in its water (which wasn't much) but enough to make him cold and he was dead when we got home. Despite lots of tears he was buried and we learned a hard lesson. Wednesday they will get more chickens in and we will update you with our new additions. They love to be held. Shae loves them and they don't mind her squishing them. We let them out today on the floor and the white one was slipping and sliding. Funny site. Then we put them on the carpet and she was like I'm a free lady. Whoo hoo and was running everywhere and jumping on our laps. The other 2 just wanted to cuddle.
