Forest City, NC

We are finally on vacation!! My in-laws own a home here in NC. Its in a nice little town called, Forest City. My in-laws live across the street from us in Florida. But we came to NC to have Thanksgiving with them. hehehehe

It is beautiful here. The weather is mild winter weather. It is currently 34 degrees outside. The sun is shining and the wind is blowing. We left at 1 am this moring and got her about 11am.

I will take some pictures tomorrow and get them posted as I can. I am so excited to be here. The kids have already been swimming the pile of leaves in the corner of the yard. Jeannine and I enjoyed a few trips around the block. Now I am ready to crash. Long night of driving.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Green Medows Petting Zoo

On October 16th we went to Green Meadows. I am just getting around to posting the pictures. This was our first homeschooling field trip. We had a GREAT time.


Shay and Zach with the chickens.
The one they are holding is coined the "Easter egg" chicken.

It lays pink & blue eggs.


Zach milking a cow.

Zach sharing a chick with a "chick". LOL

Shay has the mother's touch.
Her duckling is sleeping.

This is a Zorse.
If you look closely you can see the strips.

A hey ride to end a fun day.

The kids got to go to a pumpkin patch after this but I didn't take pictures of that. Iwas tired by the end of all of this. We had a great time though.
