Chocolate Made Carter's Day!

Chocolate had another littler of kittens, so Carter is enjoying every minute of it. He begs to get in the boat to play with them, and then it is hard to get him out. Chocolate just lays there and watches, because she knows Carter is very gentle while handling them and won't hurt them:) As always, his last stop in the garage is the 4-wheeler. Life is good on the farm!

First Track Meet of 2011

Laura's first track meet of the season was Wed., April 6. We were very proud of her, she made great accomplishments since last season. At first she had a little trouble getting her sweats over her shoes, but she managed to get them off and run with style! She was 5th in the 1600 m run (that's 4 times around the track) and 3rd in the 4x400 m relay. Go, Laura!!!

Laura's Service Project

Laura's 8th grade PSR class worked with the 1st grade PSR class to make "prayer blankets." Then they donated these blankets to a local shelter. She is working with Megan Pike, the daughter of a woman I grew up with in Old Monroe who's name was Becky Eggering. Isn't it a small world?

Carter's Having Fun

It's amazing how much time a little boy can spend on a small dirt pile with a feed scoop and a "big truck!"
