The kids and their bunnies

The kids outside playing and couldn't wait to get to hold the bunnies.  Little did they know, the little critters didn't hold still so they only got to hold them long enough for me to take their picture.  The other 2 pictures are of the kids out playing by the turkey's.  The goats should deliver in March, the dog should deliver in about 3 to 4 weeks.  We will have all kinds of animals around the place.  How glad am I that I don't have to take any of them with me when we move they all get to stay her. HAHA 

Update on the bunnies

Here are the updated pictures of Harrison's little bunnies.  I am so amazed at how fast they grow.  They are starting to get their fur and their ears are long now and they look like a bunny.  In another week or two they will be really cute.  Harrison is so proud of his rabbits.  We ended up with one black one and four brown ones.  

Tooth Fairy

Seth and I go to the Doctor and come home to all kinds of lost teeth.  Caroline lost her third tooth and Jaxson pulled out one of his teeth, not but a few days later Harrison lost one of his teeth so each of the kids have lost a tooth with in the last week and Jaxson just lost another one tonight. "Doesn't she look so excited about all of it."

Baby Bunnies

Baby Bunnies

Harrison was putting hay in our Bunny Sophia's box and he felt something move, to our surprise he found 6 baby bunnies.(He was so very excited that is Rabbit finally had babies, he has been waiting for weeks for this to happen. How grateful Seth and I are that he missed the birth of the babies he is asking way to many questions these days)!!!!  They are actually really ugly things but in a few weeks will be very adorable creatures.  We also have a new animal Victor the cow.  

Happy Birthday Caroline

Our baby girl is now "6" years old!!  She has been so excited for her birthday since the day after christmas.  She has had a very exciting 6 years of her life.  She was born in Maryville Missouri on January 16th 2003 at 5: 15 p.m. weighting in at 7 lb.. 10 oz. and as 21 inches long.  She stole her daddy's heart from day one.(  or I should say the first minute he laid his eyes on her).  She was born with lots of dark brown hair and had a perfect round head and face.  She has always been our little angel. It took us a good 3 + years for her to give up her my (the binki) we had to bribe her with a new bike.  She has lived in Missouri, Arizona, Utah and now Florida.  She has been through a lot of states in the six years of her life.  She is the joy to the whole family, her brothers love her dearly and love teasing her even more.  She loves to help do things around the house and the farm.  Her favorite chore is going out to get the chicken eggs.(she looks so cute doing it with her little egg basket).  As for school, she is very smart.  She tested top in her class during the dibels testing just before christmas, she is on a first grade level on somethings.  She loves to read and reads all the time, I can't believe how well she is reading and the books and words she knows.  She is the sparkle in her daddy's eyes and she knows it.  She lets him know she owns him all the time.  I am so grateful that our Heavenly Father sent me such a wonderful daughter.  She is all a mother has ever dreamed of having.  I am truly blessed with a wonderful adorable child.  I am so proud of the things she has done (she was on the honor roll for kindergarten the first half of school the only one in her class).  HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY WE ARE ALL PROUD OF YOU AND LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!

NOTHING LIKE FISHING ON THE GOOD OLD SUWANNEE RIVER DURING THE CHRISTMAS BREAK!!  IT IS JUST WRONG. THE KIDS DID ENJOY THEIR

 OUTING SO IT  WAS WORTH IT.

Gator stuff

Okay here are a few Gator Items that the kids want.  The Purse is what Seth got me for Christmas to go along with my wallet.  Yes we are die hard "GATOR FANS"

Gators

 MIAMI - A season that began with promise and was highlighted midway through by a promise, ended with the Gators atop college football's version of the promised land.

Florida defeated Oklahoma, 24-14, on Thursday night to become the first school to win two BCS national titles in the span of three seasons. In the process, Urban Meyer became the first coach to lead a program to two BCS championships.

And afterward, he wasn't shy about making a proclamation.

"This is one of the best teams in college football history," Meyer said.

In front of 78,468, the highest-attended football game ever at Dolphin Stadium (which for one night looked and sounded like The Swamp South), the game's offensive most outstanding player, quarterback TimTebow, led Florida (13-1) with 340 all-purpose yards.

And as he was in the Gators' SEC Championship Game victory against Alabama, Tebow was at his best late versus the Sooners (12-2). In the fourth quarter he ran for 34 of his 109 yards and passed for 76 of his 231 yards.

Following the game, he harkened back to the promise he made to the Gator Nation following UF's 31-30 loss to Mississippi on Sept. 27.

"I promised the guys that I would go out and play with all my heart," Tebow said. "I was so motivated. Oklahoma's a great team and they came out and played hard. I'm so proud of my teammates right now.

"I can't put it into words ... it was just an incredible night." 

Gators are National Champs

24-14 In total favor of the Mighty Fighting GATORS!!!!

What a game, I can say I was a little nervous at times but the GATORS pulled through.  They are a great team and have a great Coach and a AWESOME QUARTERBACK!!!!  (JUST ASK MY DAUGHTER). Seth is on cloud 9 today along with tons of other fans here in Gator Nation.  WOW I can't believe college football is over for another year.  Now we have to wait until March Madness begins.  

National Championship BCS Football Game GO GATORS

Can you say we are "GATOR FANS" or what!!!!  Harrison and Jaxson are ready for the big game along with Daddy.  Daddy is ready from Head to toe he has the Gator hat,shirt,pants,socks and gator mug.  Caroline is all ready to cheer on her favorite player ever #15 Tim Tebow (she asked me again if he was married, I told her no but he is way to old for her).   We have taken over the front living room of the house and it is crazy and loud.  Everyone is going crazy, I guess that is what makes it so much fun.  Seth said the kids get to stay up and watch the game since its such a big game and they need to see it, we will see if they make it that long, Harrison is already fading and Caroline is on her way.  Jaxson will be the die hard and stay up until the very end.  He is his daddy through and through, he repeats every play and nothing gets by him.  He loves his football.  As you all can see we are all in our matching gator pj's .  The kids are chanting along with the TV this is a night we will all remember.  GO GATORS!!!

GO GATORS!!!!!

HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THE FAMILY DURING THE GATOR SEASON!!!! WE LOVE OUR GATORS.  Daddy and Mama are sitting in front of the gator stadium, Daddy and the kids are also sitting in front of the stadium, a picture I took of the packed stadium during the big game, and the kid picture taken with Albert and Alberta.  Caroline was in heaven with her picture taken with the two cheerleaders.  Go GATORS!!!  

Christmas Decorations

The Kids got to paint Christmas decorations for the tree.  They had a ball and didn't make much of a mess.  Harrison could have painted for hours but we ran out of decorations for him to paint.  He took his time and made decorations extremely pretty.  The other two just painted their decorations very fast and simple so they could be done.  I guess that is the difference between the kids.  

Isn't she so cute!!!  The kids just love it when we bath Dixie(our puppy) we let her stay in the house for a few hours until she is completely dry.  The kids absolutely love it when she is in the house they can baby her.  

  This is our little family on Christmas Eve.  We are wearing are matching pj's you can't see the pants but they are gator pants and our shirts say go gators and our name.   Can you say we are major gator fans.  Yes behind us is our Charlie Brown christmas tree that is dead so we quickly turned the lights on for the picture and then turned them off.  The tree went out on Christmas Day and made one big mess.  That is why I love the trees out of a box. LOL

Killing the Chickens

We had the experience of killing some chickens and de-feathering them.  What an experience.  I don't think Harrison and Caroline cared for it so much but Jaxson, along with his father was all over killing the chickens and putting them in the hot boiling water.  I finally told Seth to make sure he killed the chicken on the first try instead of 4 or 5 .  He is using a machete to cut their heads off. It is so mean the things we do to animals for food.  I know these chickens will taste tons better than the ones we buy at the store and that is what we told the kids, they had a hard time believing us but we finally got through to them.  This living on the farm has truly taught are children a lot of things, I think some things could have waited a few years but what do you do.  We can say they are got some very interesting education this last past year. LOL  It is so cruel 

My blog

So you must have noticed that my blog back ground is the wonderful Jonus Brothers.  Well my oldest son Harrison and Daughter Caroline totally love the Jonus Brothers so I did it for them.  I truly love my children and when I seen the back ground I had to pick it.  When I showed the kids are blog they were so excited to see the Jonus Brothers.  It is so amazing these days how the younger kids totally get into music and these new bands.  Harrison got a the Jonus Brothers new CD for christmas from Grandma and Grandpa McDonald and he plays it all the time.  He totally loves his music.  Well I hope you all have a wonderful day and I hope to be posting some new pictures soon. Until next time.
