We got baby piggies in on Tuesday & will get more in this morning. Here is a photo of Brody & Drake with Papa. The twins & I went out to help him. Brody LOVED the piggies & Drake was a chicken. They are so total opposite......so sweet & so much fun! We get more baby piggies in today. It will be interesting to see how Drake acts today.
Here is Drake standing at the gate watching the baby piggies come off of the trailer.
He liked this- they weren't too close to him.

Here is Brody in the pen chasing the baby piggies. Notice that he also discovered the water nipples. He sure wasn't afraid. He chased them, touched them, & just had a blast screaming with excitement!
It hasn't been a good week
at our house. We've been swamped & lots of things have broken. I
keep thinking we are going to see the light at the end of the
tunnel.....sure hope so!!
My washing machine broke yesterday......so I made a quick trip to town & bought a new one.
I got great customer service & Doug delivered it & hooked it up within 2 hours of me buying it. This wasn't in my budget......but I didn't have a choice- can't live without that around here. I've already used it!
THEN- we have been fighting with getting enough water supply to the hogs. Our water comes from our pond- which is extremely low due to the drought. So we had the pump guy come out on Monday night & lower the pumps & the backhoe guy came out on Tuesday to dig around the pumps to get more water to them. AND it still wasn't working right, so the the well guy came on Tuesday night to look at things & give us his opinion. He showed up with all of his equipment to dig a deep well for us yesterday afternoon. Talk about not being in your budget! WOW WEE!!
Here is a photo of them starting to dig. My new washing machine costs peanuts compared to what this is going to cost. But we didn't have a choice. This severe drought has been so hard on alot of different things this year. But it has affected the farmers really hard in MANY ways. I pray that we get some much needed rain. We needed it months ago for the crops (that we didn't get), but we still need it now too.
On a positive note- my sister Julie stopped by yesterday. Wow- was great to have her here to visit & help with the boys while Doug was putting in my new washing machine. She was a blessing!

Ok.....gotta run. The twins & I are off to help Deke with the new baby piggies that are coming this morning. Then the twins have an appointment this afternoon to get their one year shots, plus their flu shots. Poor little guys- they get 4 shots each today. We are not looking forward to this.
Have a great day!
Happy Stamping!
ENJOY!
