Chloe and Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream


Chloe and her Daddy shared an ice cream cone the other night at her grandmother's County Fair... My mother-n-law informs us when we get there that we have to hit up the "Ice Cream Hut" before we leave, and also the banana splits are out of this world.....
So we stopped off on our way out of the grounds...well this poor ice cream cone (just the ice cream) seemed to be bigger than Chloe....and of course I got the banana split...and OH MY I got a small one....lets just say I'd hate to know what the large looked like.....Chloe, Rex, and myself couldn't eat it all....well Chloe like daddy's ice cream cone better....ha ha
I'll be so glad when all these fairs are over and can just spend time at home as a family....We are leaving August 16th for the Indiana State Fair, in Indianapolis, IN about 3 hours away from our home....then we well be done with sheep shows for awhile, until November when we go to the largest show in the United States. "NAILE" is what the regulars call it...North American International Livestock Exhibition in Louisville, KY.

Chickens anyone?







Well my brother Morris has managed to land himself in the chicken business.....



So one lovely morning i received a phone call from him, begging me to go to the post office and pick up this package, and keep it safe while he is at work....



So I load Chloe up in the car and head off to the post office. A million things running thur my head as what it could be.... So we get into the post office and I told the woman what I was there for and she says oh yes they got arrived an hour ago....I said they?? What has the world come to can we send people thur the mail? She laughed and said do you not know what the package is? I told her, all I knew was that my brother called and said there was a package at the post office and I needed to get it and take care of it until he returns home from work.....
so she walks to the back, and I start to hear this little chirpin sound getting closer and closer....Well to my amazement its a dozen of baby chicks.....what fun for me!!! So I load them into the car and take them to my parents house....my brother only lives 2 doors away....I told dad I said look.....I have a box that we need to take care of.....Dad opened it and he said thats your brother.....
So we unloaded these cute little guys and Chloe would leave their side......she even cried when my brother took them home. so I thought I'd share her pictures of the baby chicks.....she loved to look at them, but wouldnt touch them...

Chloe's new hair do


Well a few weeks ago my best friend Linsie came over and highlighted my hair.....keep in mind this is what she went to school for.......well Rex is always making the comment that when Chloe leaves with Linsie she might come back with some crazy hair color....well his worst nightmare came true....while we were getting my colors at the supply house we ran across some wash out color that reminded me of masscra...but it was purple...so of course we had to get it....haha...we put it in Chloe's hair....and Rex had the nerve to ask me if it was permant...Can u believe that?

so any way....I wanted to share her hairdo she had for a few hours....
