Weekend with my brother and his daughter




My brother and his daughter Bri came for a visit. Our first extended family visitors! we did have a little trouble Saturday night when we went to pick up new flock of hens. After loading them into crates and putting them on the trailer...the car wouldn't start!!!! Several phone calls and a borrowed pickup later, we were home to greet Justin and Bri. Unfortunately we had to take some time on Sunday to go pickup our car and replace the battery...but otherwise we had a blast!!! As it turns out, Bri is a "donkey whisperer". She brought along carrots, and soon the donkey was literally eating out of her hand. Even baby donkey was interested. Thanks to Bri, my first two days of massive egg collecting went smoothly with her help. She also helped me give Frank a bath and get some burrs out of his fur. Our daughter and her family came out on Sunday and we all went out to eat BBQ. Come back and see us soon!
