For those of you who do not know we have our own little farm here in Clermont. We have a horse named Dotty May. We rescued her in May from a family who could not take care of her. We have a dog named Deacon, he is a handful, he thinks he is a lap dog. We also have a bunny rabbit named Snow, he is Caleb's pride and joy. We got Snow at a farm auction a couple of weeks ago. Caleb knew exactly what he wanted at the auction, he pointed at the rabbits and said "I want a rabbit that looks like snow". It was really cool to see how proud he was of his rabbit. I have wanted chickens for a while now and I finally got them. We have a rooster named Bruster, he has a harem of hens. The oldest hen is Henrietta, and the three younger ones are Mary, Sarah and Winnifred (named after the three witches from Hocas Pocas). We get eggs on a daily basis, it is alot of fun to go out to the hen house and see what is there. This spring we planted a huge garden, we got squash and zucchini for 10 weeks and we are still getting tons of tomatoes. We are getting ready to pick corn, and green beans just came in as well. I have canned tons of banana peppers and hopefully we will get some watermelons and pumpkins soon. We love our little place her in Clermont.
