neither brody nor emersyn were too sure about this camel. i learned that camels were only used in texas for about 10 years. one of the ladies i met said that the camels had stopped on her great, great (not sure how many greats so we'll go with two for ease of typing) grandparents' land long ago as they entered texas. her great, great grandmother had sheared the camels, spun the wool into yarn and knitted socks for President Franklin Pierce. wow! that's some connection to history!
brody was interested in how the hooks worked.
they each took a turn at grinding some corn
making a little chinese music . . . that's pretty much what it sounds like when a little one just pounds away to his heart's content. it's great fun!
rest time after a busy day

it looks like mimi and grandpa wore the kids out
that's the goal of my every day and when someone else can do it all the better for me!
but i bet mimi and grandpa weren't tired, where do our parents get that energy?
