The "Farm"

Yesterday, we drove out to my Aunt Jeanette and Uncle Dave's house. Aunt Jeanette is my mom's sister. They live in Belleville, TX which is about an hour from my parents' house if you take I-10 and do 75 or 80 the entire time. Which, by the way, was slower than most driving on I-10 at 9:45 AM on the day after Christmas.

Aunt Jeanette and Uncle Dave have 15 acres with a house, a pond, a barn-type shed, a big ass garage, 2 donkeys, 5 or 6 goats, 2 dogs, some peacocks and some ducks. We used to go out there to swim when we were little, long before there were ever donkeys or goats. Owen kept saying, "we're going to the farm, today!"

When my sister posts some pictures or video on her blog, I'll put a link to it. Owen had a great time chasing goats until Carmen the goat wanted to butt heads with him. Owen got to ride on the tractor with Aunt Jeanette and Uncle Dave took us all walking through the woods. Owen kept asking if this was the hundred-acre woods where pooh bear lives.

We had a good time, ate too much sausage and got to see our cousin Sarah and I finally got to meet her boyfriend Ben.
