There is never a shortage of mice around the animal feed and we managed to catch these little guys in the horse trailer. Since Landon is obsessed with dinosaurs, I had been telling him that our chickens are like raptors, which of course he didn’t believe. To prove my point we tossed the mice into the chickens’ pen. With fury, the chickens attacked and gobbled up the mice, just like raptors. Object lessons and entertainment you can only find on a farm.
Kota had a litter of three cute pups and we had them out to play and to do some wing work.
Landon still isn’t holding point very long but he’s getting better 😉
When we got to Texas Roadhouse we found out it was family night and they had a guy going around making balloon animals for the kids. He asked each of them a few questions and then confirmed what they would like him to create. They variety was impressive and the kids enjoyed it. You’ll notice there’s Perception Tribe SOT kayak on the top of our Suburban, this was a boat that Drake wanted to buy and we picked it up at Sportsman’s Warehouse for $400. Drake’s portion was $200.
Drake has been wanting to build/assemble this dump truck since he opened his gift on Christmas. With all my travel this was the first day that we could sit down and put it together. Cool idea but it was a pain in the neck. None of the nuts and bolts would stay tight so it was constantly falling apart if it was played with at all. He did enjoy the build.
The day I got back from AZ, I was exhausted. Kim surprised me when when she picked me up from the airport. She had lined up a time share in snowy McCall for just the two of us and we heading there that evening. The next day we retrieved the kids and took them to the winter carnival. It was a much needed break and the cold was a wonderful respite from the rising Arizona heat.
Our specialty houses always require a lot of work, and this house in Notus was no different. With Kim in Ecuardor, they boys got some extra work time with me. There is the perk of eating out occasionally and Jack in the Box is always a favorite. Landon loves their Breakfast Jacks.
You’ve got to love Vice Grips for the shower valve.
