Also, I have been reading the Little House on the Prairie Series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. I am a bit obsessed. I have loved this series for years, but reading it again with Juan has really been fun. We visited two of her homesteads on our way to Kansas this week. DeSmet, SD and Walnut Grove, MN. I LOVED taking it all in. Elias loved the animals. He rode a horse and thought he was pretty cool.
So, my next chicken is going to be named Laura. : )

His new obcession might be horses now instead of trains. He is looking so grown up. And adorable.
So fun, After hearing about Eric's fishing trip Kyle wants to go to MN now. I love Little House and Kyle always makes fun of me. So fun!!
Words cannot describe how jealous I am that you went to Walnut Grove. I've read the books and own all 9 seasons of the tv show. My girls pretty much only watch Little House. Sydney was sure that when we moved from Kansas that they were going to be moving into a house just like Laura. She was pretty disappointed. Walnut Grove is on my list of places to go see. And I think Laura would make a great name for a chicken, especially if she can "dance". =)
Glad to hear you are already talking about getting another chicken. Do you know what kind you are going to get? And btw I love, love, love Little House but I have not read the books I should read them with Marle, she is 10 and would probably love them.
loved those books as a girl...haven't read them in years though. maybe time for a revisit, eh?
i've been the LIW house in independence, KS....that was a thrill for me...but i'm sure it was great to see the other places on your roadtrip.
We are reading the books right now... absolutely love them. I'm so excited to see you in France!
I'm going to the Boundary waters in a few weeks! I've been there once. So fun!!!
Thanks for writing this.
