Rest In Peace Remy

This space is reserved for the memory of Remy, one of our gerbils that passed away. The circumstances were tragic. We found Remy with half of his tail missing. The jury is still out as to how it got chewed off; did he chew his own tail off trying to escape from something? Did Frank, his buddy, decide he was hungry one night because Clara forgot to feed him and started nibbling on his tail? We do not know.

I asked Clara if she'd like to have a burial for Remy and she declined. She wanted to return Frank to the pet store but later changed her mind. This made me realize that we should cherish each day we have with our pets because you never know when they'll pass away.

Clara did this movie last night right before Naomi arrived to pick me up. She is too cute! Did you see the way she noticed she was on camera she went away really fast? Hee-hee!

Boat Across Lake at Lakeview Farms

We did our annual homage to Lakeview Farms' Pumpkin Patch. Here we are taking the boat across the lake to the HUGE pumpkin patch they have here.

Phil hauled all the kids AND pumpkins to the area where you wait for the train to come. Then the kids spotted a maze and went CRAZY!

We went through the haystack maze & all the kids wanted to do is something they weren't supposed to do: CLIMBING & WALKING ON TOP OF THE MAZE!

Logie wants me to "help" him on the pony ride at Lake View Farm. He did fine for a three year old. 10-23-12

The kids enjoyed themselves as they rode the ponies at Lake View Farm. Logie was so excited, James loved feeling the soft mane of his little pony and Clara wanted to ride the largest, white pony. It was well worth the $6 each. The people who owned the ponies seemed to genuinely care for their animals so it went to some good-hearted people.
