Went to Youngs Jersey Dairy to celebrate Bobby's birthday. Grace always bonds with the goats. As you can see in the below picture, saving a buck runs in the family. Why waste money on goat feed...just pick some from off of the ground. Like Grandfather like Grandaughter.

I don't know if you can tell..but look at the magazine they are looking at..."As your baby grows". Their cousin is having a baby in December and they were interested in what the baby looks like in the womb...so I took out that magazine that the OB gave me when I had every one of them. This goes along great with our Biology this year.

Since we just got done studying about the California Gold Rush...we decided to pan for some of our own gold. All you need is some fools gold, pie pan, sand and water. Mason struck it rich!

Ok, so I love Chinese food....but all that sodium is killer. So I made my own, so much healthier and very low sodium. I made baked crab Rangoon and my own chicken lo mein with brown rice instead of noodles. Very delicious and the fam loved it.
