Jonah, Rolling Ridge Ranch

 I could dedicate at least one entire blog to funny Jonah antics. This particular incident involved a bottle cap and an entire half gallon of Hartzler's whole milk which is only $3.50 per half gallon.  He decided to pour himself a bottle cap of milk...he overpoured just a tad.

 He came up to me very seriously and said "we need to get more nilky, Mommy."

  What can I do but laugh?  The next night, he decided to make chocolate nilky when I was at the grocery store.  He was "sound asleep" in his crib so Adam decided to sit on the porch swing for awhile and relax.  Adam thought he heard a noise so he poked his head in the door and Jonah had the fridge open and his ingredients spread out on the carpet in the kitchen. He was poring chocolate syrup into a half gallon of Hartzler's milk.  He also had two sticks of butter and a stick of cream cheese.  I'm not sure who taught him to make chocolate milk this way!  I guess it was his own recipe.

 We went to Rolling Ridge Ranch for the day with Grandma Hartzler, Tonia, Autumn, Alyssa, Lane and Lanae.  Jacob was thrilled to get to drive the horses.

 This picture cracks me up for some reason.

 So we pulled into the place and this is the first animal I saw.  I decided it should be called a Zonkey, but the guide burst my bubble and said it's a ZDonk.  What kind of name is that?

 This is such a good picture... do they take bad pictures ever? 

 We each got a bucket of grain to feed the animals.  The kids loved this.  The big animals kept stealing our buckets though.

 Me and Jonah.  Jonah just loved seeing all the animals and of course I loved holding him on my lap!  He is such a sweet baby.

 I happen to think zebras are very cool looking.

 I guess you don't have to be in Texas to see a longhorn.  This guy looks like he could use a few good meals though.

 Jacob's favorite part was holding the ducklings.

Jonah liked this part too. Poor, poor ducklings... not sure how many Jonah's they could survive through.  We are having a wonderful summer!  I am really enjoying my kids! They are growing up so fast.  I thank God for my family every day.
