Will We Have to Change Our Blog Name?

Our big Happy Hogs got loaded up into this trailer on Sunday. Big is an understatement. Our boar weighs about 900 pounds and our sows weigh about 600 pounds. We were amazed that they all fit inside this. It provided great entertainment for all those city folks who came out to Dayton's farewell, as we loaded them up. That trailer was just rocking and Bert (the boar) had the fullest respect from everyone! It was a sad moment for Dave.
DeeAnne and Marion are now the proud owners of those big pigs. I think DeeAnne already feels some of the stress that comes with owning HOGS!
We were just relieved to hear that they made it home safely to Star Valley. They only had one breakdown along the way. Now, those hogs really should be happy in beautiful Bedford and they'll get to eat all the organic produce they want.

A Full House for Dayton's Farewell

We had such a wonderful day for Dayton's farewell.
We had over 100 people come and eat after. I prayed we'd have enough food and we did! We had ribs, cornbread and salads.
One of our friends looked over at Bo and declared that he was a chick magnet!
The Johnson family.

Grandpa Law and Grandpa Call.
Some of the Call Family.
A table full of Dayton's friends.
Lots of Laws!


This was a hungry bunch!
Dayton's friends from Logan. Morgan, Chet, Dayton, Michelle, Stephanie, Sarah, and Lynsie.

The Entire Call Family Came....No KIDDING!

I call it monumental! My entire family came to Roosevelt. Everyone! Some came on Saturday and some came on Sunday. We had a wonderfully full house and loved it.

Grandma Call wore her mumu (spelling?) and told everyone that she had just got back from Hawaii. Maria believed her and thought that she looked wonderful!


Parker came prepared with his pig boots and spent lots of time with the pigs. He was very sad that he couldn't take one home. Here they are going to feed them some garden produce.
Kenna spent her time catching grasshoppers. She thought that Roosevelt grasshoppers were much prettier than Star Valley ones and so she wanted to cross breed them to improve the quality of the Star Valley grasshoppers.

She did ask her mom if they could come spend spring break here. That is the greatest compliment we could have!
Emi loved Mariah.
Mariah and Abby spent extra time creating special hairdos.
Grandpa Call was HERE! Absolutely amazing and appreciated.

The Last Night of XBox for Dayton

Mariah turned 9 on Saturday. She was more than excited to open her present!

Cado Had the First Bath!

Cado had the inagural (spelling?)bath in our new jetted tub last night. He wore his swimsuit, of course, because there wasn't a door on the bathroom and we all wanted to stand around and watch the jets spray out!
