Wanting a Treat

Roger likes to check out what's in the fridge,  hoping for a treat.

Pierre

Pierre's name fit him, he was a lover not a fighter. He lived part of his life in the city and his last part in the country. People were amazed how big he was. He will be forever missed.

He eats everything

The new rabbit "Roger Doger" is a chewer. He chews on everything. He eats just about anything like a spring roll right out of my hand, or pizza crust sitting on a paper plate on coffee table. Just now walked in to find him eating with Frito....cat food.

Congrats...it's a Girl and Boy

My folks are proud parents of a new little girl and little boy. They became part of the family on Saturday,  June 1. Names aren't set yet but Leeroy and Praline have been mention.

Welcome to the family.

Brisket

I say brisket, you think of what? If you guess a steer being raised by a Cy-Woods FFA member then you're correct.

Newest Farm Member

Roger came to us via Galveston Island Humane Society. When we brought him home, he was instantly welcome by Frito.

Easter 2013

Bunny and Oliver -

Funny, Beloved Toothless

I hate to start the first blog of 2013 with sad news. Tonight we lost Toothless due to a speeding driver. She will be greatly missed, especially by Frito and Sheldon to which she acted as a Mommy to. Toothless wasn't toothless, she found her way to the farm and decided to stay. We called her Toothless because she looked like the dragon off the movie "How to Train Your Dragon".

 

She was a silly cat that would greet you in the least likely places.

 

 

She would always find the best places to take naps.

 

 

She was a Cornish Rex cat - a cat that I had always dreamed of having one day. I'm thankful for the time that she was part of my life and she will never be forgotten.

Stinker vs Chicken

I'll apologize now for A) my dirty windows and B) low sound - be sure to notice how Sully the Dane is sick of the yapping!

"Git Dat Hawg Boi"

Today my nephew became an official hawg raiser of the FFA! The greenhand is in for an adventure like none other. Once his number was called he got the chance to grab up his 2 month pig!

Looks like Devyb got himself a fiesty one....hang on to her!

PRICELESS..............................

Good Luck Devyn!!!!!

Who Says a 3 Legged Cat Can't Whoop Some.....

Enough Said

Memories

My adopted niece, Tori has just drawn #40.......this is a long wait but as Ag Kids get their numbers called, they are haltering their new lambs. I'm (along with some others) are waiting with baited breath to see what lamb Tori will get, to work and raise and prepare for her Tomball FFA show. As I wait for information to come over my phone, I start thinking back to the days I was in FFA. This ladies and gentlemen, had to be the best years. I raised lambs, steers, chickens and was on the dairy judging team, and won the American FFA Degree. I'm still waiting for my phone to bing, buzz.....DO SOMETHING ALREADY.

Here it is, #40

What a great smile, thanks for letting me be a part of this again - so many years later.

To my neice, good luck and give them hell in that show ring!!!!!!

Frito

Frito came to us by means of force......if you're reading this HM then yes I'm calling you out!! I believe the words were "Oh he just came right up to us", yes that's what I heard as I'm 209.31 miles from home. Of course my daughter is carrying him around and he's limp as a dish cloth, couldn't have a care in the world and all I can do is start plotting payback - which I'm still working on. So, I'd like to welcome to the farm, Frito.

He was very good on the way home, sleeping most of the way right besides me. When we got home, it wasn't the normal 2 weeks to be welcomed by the other cats......Sheldon accepted him within 24 hours.

Alright, he can stay!!!!

I do believe all is forgiven...........

Radar - you will be missed

Radar snuggled with me last night, then woke me to the sound of him helping his 3 legged brother pull the bag of cat treats down off the counter. I know they both worked together to put all those little teeth marks into the bag. This is my last moment with Radar, this will be the last time he would be with his brother Sheldon.
I woke this morning to find Radar had wondered into the road, yet so close to the driveway & had been hit. Radar and Sheldon came to the farm as young brothers.

They were always together even when it was nap time.

As they became older, it didn't matter, they were brothers who loved each other.

Even when Sheldon had his accident and broke his leg, leading to having to have it removed; Radar was never far from his brother.

Radar - you will be missed by us all!

It's Always the Quiet Ones

There's been a spree of murder in a quiet neighborhood. The victims have all been of birds and mice. The alleged suspect is still at large. Friends of the alleged suspect or "Romeo", were found to say this "He never seemed the type to me. I would see him outside but he always looked loveable and would be on his front porch lookin' cute".  If anyone has pet birds or mice, it's advised to keep them inside for their safety. Please take a good look at the mugshot that was just brought in...............
