This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home....One of our sons pig did not weigh enough to enter the fair, so he got sent back home. Big disappointment for oldest son. The other son's pig made it in fine. Here are a few shots of their day:

    I vaguely remember in the book "Charlotte's Web" that they bathed Wilbur in milk. Do they really do that? I can imagine they would prefer a bubble bath! :)

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it!
