Yesterday we went over to the Post farm for a birthday party picnic that I can't wait to fill you in on...with lots of great photos...that I don't have loaded yet because we've been 'Fall Cleaning' today.

So let me share these bunny photos taken by my 9 yo daughter...whom has become quite the little photographer...as well as quite the little 'bunny dresser!' Don't ask me how they come up with these ideas...but it's better than video games any day!

Perhaps I have Beatrix Potter to thank for the fixation my children have with their creative past time of dressing the animals. None are immune...including the horse!

Yes, Truffles and Freckles, here, are sporting puffy pants...somewhat difficult to get on...but quite comfortable, I hear, once they are.

First Truffles in her stylish puffy pants and in the brand new litter box (yes, our bunnies will use the litter box if it's there - lovely!)...

Then Freckles assumes the pose! Gracie, our son's bunny, is thankfully relieved from most of these goings-ons.

Our bun-buns are also enjoying their spacious new cage. Jump over to Green Pioneer for our new cage design as well as some of our friend's Cagey Ideas!

We also have a new update on the log home. And more on that soon! I also have some great sites and books to share on Bringing in the Bounty, if you haven't caught those yet!

Let the lowliest task be mine,
Grateful, so the work be Thine;
Let me find the humblest place
In the shadow of Thy grace;

Blest to me were any spot
Where temptation whispers not.

If there be some weaker one,
Give me strength to help him on;
If a blinder soul there be,
Let me guide him nearer Thee.

By John Greenleaf Whittier

As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness and patience.
Col. 3:12

What most adults would consider work, most kiddos would consider child's play--and many parents begin to get this figured out pretty early on. If you haven't yet figured this out, then you're missing out on some free of charge, very enthusiastic help!

So how did we pull this off? Well, first we just make it all look like it's just too much fun for words!

And then we let 'em try it on for size...

And they realize they can handle the big stuff...no prob!

Then she wanted a turn, too. Bless her heart, though, she was just too light to keep the seat weighted down enough--so the mower kept back-firing like crazy and wanting to completely conk out--not good. So we need to figure out how to weight her down a bit! Anyone heard of bricks in the britches...?

And then we discovered THIS contraption...

Can someone please make him stop...??! Babycakes will have NO grass left to nibble at this rate!

Oh well!
