This picture was taken on October 17, 2006. It was raining very hard and all the goats (does) were inside.

Another rainy day but only since about 2pm. Grandma was able to hang two loads of clothes on the line and get them dried before it started to rain. AR went to preschool and had a blast as usual. We picked her up and we went to Sams in Watertown. We rearranged the furniture and vacuumed. But we still need to go do our goat chores and feed and water them. Asa got off of work 2 hours early and went out hunting after he helped unload the groceries.

We are expecting house guests today and tomorrow Grandpap comes. We are expecting Dave and Jane from Australia and Grandpaps sister Margie and her husband Roger. AR is very excited that Aunt Margie is coming especially Uncle Roger.

Here is a short tale from Grandpap:

I had my first phone call with AR yesterday. We have talked on the phone before when Sarah, Asa, or Cheryl gave her the phone and such, but yesterday evening she was in Grandma's room when I called and no one else was there. She picked up the phone, said hello, asked who it was, and then told me all about her day. She talked about painting the bathroom, baking Daddy a birthday pie, having pie and ice cream and singing happy birthday, she was great! She also told me about Woody getting in the garbage again and getting in trouble, and QT not listening when she was told to. We had a great phone call. Love Grandpap

This morning we woke up and there was note from the racoons. The note said all the toys were picked up so we ate the rest of the apple pie and it was so good. AR couldnt believe the racoons came and took the rest of the pie. Usually they threaten to come and take her toys when they arent picked up but to come and eat the rest of the pie and they left a note was unbelievable.
