Chickens and Cows

One of the highlights of the Oklahoma trip was going to Johnie and Nancy's and feeding Buckethead and the chickens. Buckethead, if you are wondering, is a cow.
Both the kids fed the chickens, and Ben very carefully gathered some eggs.

Buckethead was pretty frisky - he certainly had more energy than any of us in the heat!

Nancy had snacks and sidewalk chalk for the kids to play with. She always has some little surprise that the kids just love. Unforunately I'm still trying to wean Izzie off her habit of eating markers, crayons and chalk.

Later on in the evening Izzie, who will try on anyone's shoes, discovered a pair of boots in the garage - and that provided the rest of the fun for the evening!


Who knew a pair of rubber boots could be so much fun?

And here's our little Cinderella getting her own shoes put back on when the fun had to come to an end.

Yes, it was so hot! And August is usually one of our hottest months, but we are enjoying such cool breezes and nights in the 50's! Guess you'll have to come back.
