Farmer's Market Hideout




The kids made a great little hideout under Lucy's booth at the market. They ate a lot of honey sticks and growled at the neighbors. RAAAWRRR.














Pony Ride



Because new pigs aren't exciting enough for one day, we took the kids for pony rides this afternoon. Lily LOVED it. Wolfie declined thev ride, but enjoyed seeing the horses up close.

An old one from Spring 2008, but ridiculously cute. At least to anyone related to her. I love 3 year old Lily.

New Pigs!


We picked up the pigs today. The kids named them Thomas (the black one, which is a girl) and Speck (the pink one). Both are Mulefoot crosses that were purchased from our friends at The Piggery. So far, they seem very happy, if terrified of us. I'm not daunted, though. I used to tame feral cats. Pigs should be no problem.

Lily and Wolfie Dancing Together

Last night we went to a friend's 40th birthday party (Happy Birthday Sam!). Lily and Wolfie had a great time - we had to drag Lily out of there at 9 pm. Here's a video of them dancing.

Clearly, I don't have this youtube thing down yet, but bear with me and turn your laptop on its side.

Wolfie Reads to Greta

or is it the other way around?

Everyone bursts into dance during a visit to Greta's grandparents.
