A Day at the Farm






I had heard about Davis Farmland a year or so ago, but we had never felt Claire was really the appropriate age to take her. We finally ventured there today. It was a great little place and the best part is that it is only a few miles from our house. Everyone had the same idea as the place was hoppin. Anyone who knows Chris knows how he LOVES to feed the animals. This fascination has rubbed off on Claire. She enjoyed feeding the lamas, sheep, goats, and piggies. We tried to get her to take a ride on the pony, but she wouldn't budge. There were little play areas mixed in throughout the animal exhibits, which provided great entertainment. They even had a neat little town for kiddos to go shopping, visit the doctor, etc. Later in the season they have a sprinkler park and a maze to enjoy. We look forward to checking those out. It was a fun visit. Definitely somewhere we will revisit.

Wow, Farm fun. Chris probably enjoyed it more than Claire. Didnt know you were on vacation. What a bum. You are off more than you are on!

Love you guys, Jessica

Crappy day today with Grandma--sorta glad it was my weekend to work for a much needed distraction!

Sweetness Overload

So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really ...

Progress

I used to be prompt about scrapbooking in Claire's album. After seeing my sister's pictures piled up three children later, I was determined not to have the same fate. I am sure it is difficult for some of you to believe, but since Claire has been born, my free time has been limited. Really, it has. So, our pictures are finding their way into piles too--5 to be exact. However, I am thrilled to say that I finished (ok, they aren't completely finished, but nearly. I only have journaling to do.) six pages. Yes, that's right, I said SIX!! It was a major accomplishment. Here they are for your viewing pleasure. Only 5 more months left to get through....any volunteers? Jessica???
