Welcome to Crawford

While out and about in the partially sunny state of Georgia, we stopped by our cousins house to visit with him and his lovely family. In tow was our daughter, my mother, my other cousin "M" and of course me! My cousin and his family live on 13+ acres just off the main road to the fine University of Georgia. They live in a sleepy little town named Crawford and upon our visit I could understand why they like it so much! I often kid and call our home "Magoo's Zoo", however they have us beat, as they have a menagerie of ranch/farm animals as well as several domesticated versions as well. Here are a few photos I snapped while we were there....come meet some of them! Meet "the chicken"....I was totally perplexed as to why this chicken was all bowed up in the box. I turned to the smallest cousin in our group (L) who said...."maybe she is going to lay an egg." Boom, well actually it was more like a plop and tadaa.....there was an egg...fantastic! Meet the horses in pecking order in this photo....Harvey is in the lead I believe Eve is next in line, followed by Cheyenne. Eve and Cheyenne are rescue horses and have been with them for about (2) months.

This is pistol, his name tells all the story you will need to know. Oh, they one to the left my cousin (E), he was my partner in crime growing up!

Meet the cat, I am sorry to say I never got her name. I did get alot of squeaking from our daughter who was thrilled when her cousin named one of the newborn kittens after her. I understand they made some type of "pact" for her to keep the little thing until we return. That should thrill her father who is deathly allergic to cats!

Here is a picture of our two little conspirators and of course our daughter's namesake. They just look like they are up to no good! Ahhhhh to be a kid. The girls spent a fair amount of our visit perched upon this tree swing. The simple joys of childhood it is a pleasure to watch. We had a really good visit and a great time "reliving" some of our own special childhood memories! We look forward to our next get together and here is to ensuring it doesn't take as long to get us all together again!
