Daddy/Daughter/Daughter/Daughter Date







Most mother's would not let their girls go out with someone who was wanted by the Law. Let alone, one who was wanted for Shootin' the Sheriff. I figured that since all the mother's were letting their daughters go, why should I be the one to hold my daughters back. They were just meeting at the local church, of all places, for a picnic and some square dancing. What harm could come from that?

The meal was prepared by the activity directors and the girls were happy to bring their prize winning salads and desserts. They enjoyed the fine vittles picnic style, with everyone bringing their favorite blanket to dine upon.

The party really took off when all the "wanted" men escorted their Little Ladies to the dance floor. They really kicked up some dirt.

There was many a tear shed when the evening came to an end and all of the men all rode off into the sunset, leaving their little darlings behind.

Feeding Time


Another sign of Spring is feeding our friends lambs. Each year our friend picks up 12-14 lambs and raises them. For 3 - 4 weeks we get to help out with their feedings. You feed them milk from a bottle. She has them all numbered so we know which lamb we have fed. The kids love taking care of them. She feeds them every 6 hours (6am, noon, 6pm and midnight). We help out with the 6pm feeding. The girls really want to do a midnight feeding...we'll see. The baby lambs are so cute, they just nuzzle right up to you. It is so fun watching the kids with them. They (my kids) can't get enough of them (the lambs) or maybe it's the lambs can't get enough of my kids. All I know is that my kids are in heaven. If it was up to my girls we would help out with every feeding.
