Abbra, one of the young women from our branch, got to stay with us while the rest of her family went to the temple (she had to stay home to work). Why I didn't get a shot of her I don't know, but there was hairdos, manicures, and an elaborate fort she and the kids built in the basement. It involved sheets hanging from the ceiling fan, every spare blanket in the house, and the complete rearranging of all the basement furniture. Abbra was an excellent sport and slept in the fort with the girls that night. It was big for a fort, but rather smallish for three sleepers! She also took us to her home to help her feed the rabbits, and the kids got to hold them and pet them.
The weather was so fabulous that I ventured further on my walks than before. I discovered the most beautiful Missouri farm not too far away:
After an evening fireside, we stopped by to visit the goats and llamas that live on this farm. Here's Aidan and Sophia trying to entice the goats with a carrot:
The goats would have no part of our carrots. However, we did have some excitement when one of them did get stuck in the fence:
Doug and Meredith rescued him, Sophia doing her part by offering a silent prayer. (He was saved).

What is this face? I think this is such a funny picture:
He's just so dang good-lookin':

Sounds like a great spring break. Is it just me, or is Meredith as tall as Sophie? They look so grown up.
I love all those furry creatures!
Now I want a llama for a pet.
Where was Lucy? She would have loved the adventure.
