Game Highlights

Last inning. We are winning by three runs. The other team is up to bat and they tie up the game. It is our teams turn and Carson is the first one up. He hits the third pitch and makes it to second. The next batter hits a grounder straight to second, so Carson stays put. Next batter strikes out. Then the next one strikes out also. Another batter is up and he makes it to first. Two strikes and the bases are loaded (Carson is on third). Can you guess what's coming next? Yep....an awesome little batter walks up to plate. Hits the ball to the fence. GRAND SLAM! We win!!

Ruby - 3 1/2 months old

I don't think I ever told you what kind of dog Ruby is. Caden had a lot of trouble deciding what breed to get. So I might have influenced him a little bit. I have always wanted a Great Dane. And now Caden has one! She is only three and a half months old and already huge and clumsy.

They're Here

After a few weeks of waiting, we got the call at 6:30 Thursday morning. It was the post office, calling to say our chicks were in and asking us to come get them! I got dressed, woke up Caden, and off we went. As we went through the side door of the post office, we could hear the chicks cheeping. I'm sure the postal workers were MORE than ready for us to get there and claim our chicks.
We ordered them from a hatchery in Ohio. We have 5 Speckled Sussex (the red ones), two Australorps (the solid black ones), and three silver Wyandottes (the black and yellow ones). They also gave us a mystery chicken which turns out to be an Ameraucana (it's the pretty yellow one with black stripes in the first picture).

Special Delivery

Guess what we got this morning!
