"F" is for father's day ties and farm friends

I haven't had a lot of time to blog lately so I am a little behind. My good friend Jodi invited us over for a fun afternoon of decorating old ties for father's day gifts. It was a lot of fun and it came with a really great poem that was very funny and basically told the dad's that they "GOT" to wear the ties. All the dad's were really good sports and wore them with pride! Later that day we had the privilege of going up to Jodi's farm to see the baby cows and bottle feed them. The kids LOVED this activity and beg to go there almost everyday. Kaytlin wasn't so sure about the fact that the eggs she got were brown and not white. After explaining why that happens she seemed ok with it but declared she would definitely not be eating them, that was ok though because Austin had every intention of eating all 3 of them himself. Right when we got home he asked me to cook them so I quickly did. Just as soon as he was done eating them he went right up to Kaytlin and told her that they were delicious and that they didn't taste any different, it didn't matter though because Kate didn't want to hear it!
Trenten has a natural knack for caring for animals and has been blessed to be able to go back up with Jeff (farmer Jones) who is Jodi's husband and help him feed and care for the animals. He must love it too because he is willing to get up at 6:00 to be ready by 6:30 to leave. Every time he has come home he tells me all sorts of stories that farmer Jones has taught him about farm life : ). If you ever want to know how a cow becomes a steer and not a bull you can ask Trenten, he can tell you!
