Pecans, Piglets, & Chicks

My mom and four of my siblings came out recently for a visit.  It was so nice to see them again and spend some time with each other.  One day we went over to Jaylon and Hannah's and picked pecans.  They have quite a few pecan trees in their back yard and Hannah said we could come get as many as we wanted!





Cracking the pecans!  They are delicious!

Next we were off to see the two day old piglets at Micah and Jenny's house!

See the little piggy sleeping in the straw?

This one is defiantly the runt of the litter!! It is sooo tiny!

They also have chicks right now!

Chicks are always fun to hold!! 
Unless they decide to use the bathroom while they're in your hand :-/ 
(that's what mine did anyways)

Uriah giving Ben a chick to hold :)


Looks like you have quite the handful of chicks there Joy!

...and here are some other pictures of while they were here.

Elainah and I were "hair twins" for a day :)

Benjamin, intently "reading" :)

We went to Sierra Vista one day and Benjamin wore this hat of Justin's the whole time! :)

 Saying good bye to Justin the night before they left to go home.

It happened to be Elainah's 8th birthday on the day they left.
Happy Birthday Elainah!!  She's my little "mini me" :D

As always, the trip flew by way to fast but, I'm so glad they got to come for the time they did!

Your Mom brought us a bag of AZ pecans. Yum-o. I love pecans. Looks like spring has arrived with all the baby animals in your post. I never realized how much you and Elainah look alike! Grandmommy
