Busy Saturday

Saturday was a busy day. We started out the day with no water. That in turn got Josh home from work early since we didn’t know where the pipes had froze. He managed to find the problem just in time for me to leave with Bella to go to her gymanstics class.

In between all this stuff we watched the State Cheer compation where Sara’s team was performing. Bella was in loved and enjoyed watching it.

Cheer and Goats

So Saturday morning, we all got up bright and early. Josh had to work 6 hours overtime , Max went to Nana’s and Bella and I went to meet up with my sister. We were all going to Sara’s cheer competition. Bella was begging to go and see sara perform again since the last time we went.  We had a great time and Sara’s team won first place, meaning they were going to state Smile

Note bella’s bow. She got a real cheer bow, granted it was only a practice one, but it was bigger then any of her other bows.

We then got home in the afternoon and decided to let the kids enjoy the warmer temps outside. I also had to tell the kids the bad news. I found someone with a bigger farm and more area for the goats. It was a tough choice to make, but I just felt so bad for them as they couldn’t stay with the cows because they just ate too much feed, not to mention they would climb in the hay feeder and then use it as a bathroom, so then it was wasted feed. In order to keep them out, the cows wouldn't be able to get their head in either. Also I knew this spring and summer we wouldn’t be able to let them run free if we wanted a garden. They proved to use that they can get out of most collars so tying them up didn’t work either. I found a guy who has a couple other goats and a farm where he uses the goats to keep the brush down in the pastures and woods. We loved them, but I think they will be happier doing what they love to do (eat) and being able to be free. Also they went to better shelter and running water.

So we went to hang out with the goats, love them up and get some pictures of the kids with them. I told Bella maybe in a few years when we have a better set up we can get some smaller goats again.

The Domes

I totally missed posting about our trip to the domes. The plan changed a few times, but we finally decided to go in the afternoon. We met Tracey there since she was in the area already due to a basketball game. it was a very cold day and then we got to experinance lake effect snow. That wasn’t funny, but lucky for us it was only for a short time. We then went to the mall for a snack and stopped at the grocery store before heading home.

 

The Domes are three domes that are climate controlled to grow plants from different areas, ones is rainforest, one is desert and the other is changed up every couple of months. When we went it was done up in trains. There reason that we went.
