Dropped by the farm to get my adorable kid fix. Never disappointed. Danica and Stella are ready for visiting anytime. Social dolls they are. Their brother, well, he's gotten too old for Grandma. He's busy chasing, uh hem, helping the girls that work around the farm. 

I got in the house and found Kristin rolling the girls hair in curlers. Hadn't seen sponge curlers in years but they sure brought back memories. The girls were adorable in them. Kristin topped them off with do-rags. 

After Danica fixed my hair and painted my toenails rainbow colors we went on an "abenture" to find Gare. First, the big barn. Stella kept stopping for me to catch up. They are a task to keep up with. 

These babes are fearless. They go right in the barn and out pops a half a dozen horse heads.

We have to visit everyone. Stella feels it imperative to pull some hay from the mouth of one and examine it. 

Nothing interesting here according to Stell, so off we go. 

We're soon out the other end and making a pit stop at the house on our journey to one of the far barns. There's a cat there I need to see, Danica says.

Danica made it to the kitty first and Stella was a little put out that she wasn't the one showing the cat off to me. I am not sure what she was saying while these faces were happening but she was dead serious and completely matter of fact about it. I was the smart one and agreed. Danica just ignored her. 
 

Danica is just proud of her cat.
 

Stella is soon over it though. She's an easy going kid and doesn't stay mad long. Besides, she's ready to explore the yard when I show her and Danica the plantain growing all over the place. They were fascinated when I tell them that if they crunch up the leaves of plantain, and rub it on their chigger and skeeter bites, it will help stop the itch and burn. 
 

Danica is such a considerate child, she picks a handful for daddy who has some of those nasty gnat bites. 

Stella's down to gather up a few too. 
 

We found Gare, who was as I suspected, right between two girls in the farm buggy. 
 

He disappeared as quick as we spied him and low and behold the monkey had come out in him. 

Crazy kid was at the top of one of the tanks. 
 

Time to go in the house for supper but before that, one more stop because the girls tell me there is something I "must" see. Danica is all about "let me open the door," she says. 

They're pretty proud of the new kitties. 
 

And really, who wouldn't be? 

It was a good day on the farm.
