Pony Rides

Last week Alex, his buddy, Bryce, and I headed to the Pony Farm with many of our playgroup pals. The boys had a great time. I was able to snap a few pictures before I dropped my camera while rescuing Alex from a goat in the goat pen. The weather was perfect and the boys were great. After riding the ponies a bunch of times, we wandered over to check out the peacocks, chickens, horses, donkeys and ponies. The kids got to hold a peacock egg and a hen egg. Too bad my camera broke, because the peacocks were beautiful, especially the albino ones.

You can learn something new everyday!

On Saturday, Joan, Almond and I started a new adventure. We're learning how to knit. Of course, it was a lot more challenging for me than anyone else. I didn't think our teacher was very good at giving instructions. No scarf yet, but I am becoming pretty good at "casting on." Maybe my family will all have matching scarves for next year's Co-op Snow trip! Ha!I was so busy trying to learn how to knit that I forgot to capture any pictures until everyone had left but Almond and me. So, here is one picture of the new knitters!
