We headed over to the farm yesterday. It was so good to see the Vaca family again. Vaca momma was pretty sick this winter- spending time in the hospital, but the latest excitement- a CALF living in the basement. Ask Hermano about watching the calf being born- it is a unique view into how the 4 year old mind works.
The boys were excited to see the calf- named "Tiller" by hermano.
The mommas were ok until the boys starting throwing the sawdust all over the place- nothing like cow poop possibly being on clean boys and on mommas to really set the tone at the farm. Tiller will be in the basement a few more days and then is moving out to the chicken shed- just like the 2 calves from last year.
I must say the more we visit with hermano and the family, the more I realize I am happy to just grow veggies in my backyard. I am not sure I could take a cow in the basement, even a little cute one like Tiller. She is very docile and very cute. But, I certainly appreciate my food much more seeing all the work, effort and pain that Vaca Daddy goes through. Farmers rock!!!!
The boys had a great time playing- the sit-n-spin was hijo's favorite- again.
But defintiely the favorite thing, was tipping over their chairs and ending up on the floor. Silly boys. 
We had homemade pizza for dinner along with watermelon. I thought the boys would help, but they were too busy playing. It was a good dinner and good time with our friends.
For Popi, Mireya and the girls- I have the last item for the package for you guys. I am going to pack it up this week and I will send it on Monday. I will email you when I ship it, along with the contents. I am hoping it arrives in time for Easter.
Love and hugs,
momma
