Our morning routine

Most mornings while Mark is taking the boys to school Tennyson and I begin our day with a nice walk around the farm checking on all the animals.  You would think it was Spring time with all the babies born this past week this past week.  We usually begin by feeding and watering the tortoises.  Then we check on the bunnies and pigs. Then we make our way to see if any snakes have been born.  On this special day we walked out and Tennyson found new baby chicks.  She was so excited.  It was born after the mother left the nest with the other chicks so Tennyson was the first to see it.  It would cheep and cheep if she put it down.

Here are the kids watching the birth of snakes before they went for school.

Asher's 1st Day of Kindergarten

August 8, 2011
Asher began his first day of Kindergarten.  He had some reservations about leaving home but afterwards was so excited he said "I had so much fun I can hardly tell you about it."  He really likes his teacher. He said Braxton gave him permission to say "Hi Braxton" whenever he saw him.   Eight days into school after picking up the boys he told me that his favorite part of school that day was that he got to see Braxton in the gym and he said "Hi Braxton".  How cute! Here are a few images from his first day of school.
