WICKED AWESOME 4th Of July!



Our 4th started out with the normal ride on the fire trucks and waffles at my moms. My grandpa Palmer decided to buy his very own fire truck so we had a personal chauffer for the event! (Because of the early 5:30 hour-I have no pics of the parade-woops) But then I dropped my kiddos off with Jenni & Randy-thanks again guys-and we headed off the Mesa to see Wicked! My parents gave us tickets for our birthdays and it was such a fun relaxing trip! I LOVED IT! The cast was amazing and I just LOVE reeaally good music-that and being with my husband, my parents, and my awesome little sista Molli made for a perfect 4th of July! We even caught fireworks in Globe on the way home. Just happy :-)

Chicken Epidurals- What do YOU think?!?







In our quest to become more self-reliant, we have our very own chickens. A couple of days ago, Dave heard a particular laying hen making some extra noise in the laying box. He later found the BIGGEST egg we have ever seen from a chicken. Poor thing-and without an epidural even! :) If I liked to touch animals-I might have given it a pat on the back for a job well done! Nothing like a double yoked egg for breakfast...
