Oops, I guess I've been neglectful.

Okay, I'm here! Yes, a few weeks later. See, I had to recover from all the kiddos at my house! While Kim was pointing out what a slacker I am, I was doing this! I kind of love how the two in the back of the cart are in a seatbelt while the others are just sitting in a trailer. We refused to let them get off their bottoms though, we're cautious like that.



This is how we play here in Rural Florida! See, Kim is in Augusta (home of The Masters) and this is so NOT how they use golf carts there. And the brand of this cart is also an issue as it is not their cart of choice, but it belongs to my friends. We went there to play and do a bit of yard work. In neighborhoods, you help others plant flowers on porches and talk about if someone's tree is dropping leaves in someone else's yard or whisper about the person who never edges at the sidewalk. In rural areas, we talk about things like when it might work out for us to come over and help with our Bobcat or the best way to catch moles or how many deer will come through your yard soon or the lastest lost pets that roamed through your front yard.

It was 7 am and the boys just woke up for school and this is what they saw in the front yard! How fun is he?? Within the hour, the owners came and got him. Yes, he is someone's pet! We have lived in our rural area for a year and we've had lost horses and lots of wild cats roaming our property, along with deer. But he was the most fun! Yesterday, there were chickens here! We don't even own a dog, truth be told, so this is quite amusing to us! You know you are in a rural area when instead of seeing signs that say "Lost dog", you see "Lost goat"!




So, I promise to blog more! I'm the bad twin but I will do better I swear . . . . .

Kier, we lived in rural Sebring growing up and once had 3 horses show up in our yard! Dad was speechless, but there was my sister and I laying claim to the one we wanted!
