Pictures from Saturday

When we got up Saturday morning it was 17 degrees outside! David had to break the ice on the pond so his ducks could swim around. David with his smallest duck We spent the day at Mama Flo and Daddy Loren's, raking leaves. Mama Flo invited us to come early and have breakfast with them. Daddy and Daddy Loren waiting for breakfastTime to eat! Raking the leaves There is only a small entrance into the field where we burn the leaves, so we carry them in tarps!It was very windy, but Daddy and David kept the fire where it was supposed to be.

Anyone want a free cat?

Mama wanted us to take pictures of our cute cat, Chaps, but whenever we try to take his picture he runs right for the camera! Chaps followed me up and down the steps over and over. He is so cute and fluffy!
I'm sorry the pictures are so blurry, but he wouldn't stand still!

This is the only good picture I got of Chaps. The only reason he was sitting still was because he was "hiding" from Stuart, who was looking right at him!

We still have cats to give away, including Chaps. Please tell us if you want one!
