Horses

We are all enjoying the horses.  Jeremy R. "might" even

learn to like them!!

Zucchini

If anyone is ever  wondering how many zucchini

plants to plant in your garden, one plant produces

enough zucchini to keep several families supplied.

We have two plants and our house has become

a zucchini bread factory!!!  I have found, it is easier

to hand someone a loaf of zucchini bread than

to hand them the actual zucchini squash!! You don't

feel quite as guilty. 

Maxon's b-day, Deco & Kera, Horses!!!!

Anyone who tries to keep up with our crazy

life will understand why our blog is called

the "Lyman Zoo". Besides being crazy and

hectic, it seems that it is also filled with

different kinds of animal experiences.

After spending the week at the County Fair 

with Camryn's and Carter's lambs where they 

showed them and sold them, Kristi and I traveled to 

Payson on Aug. 10th to tend Marilyn's kids while 

she was at girl's camp.

Noelle had planned Maxon's birthday party for

when we would be there, so we got to be there

for it also.

  

A last minute party was planned when Deco &

Kera eloped!!  We got the family together for 

dinner at Golden Corral.  We welcome Kera to

our family.  We all love her.

We also spent the week looking at horses that

were for sale in the area and ended up buying

two horses and a four-horse trailer!!  I know,

that is a very crazy thing to do.  The horses were

already named, "Cody" and "Panda".

On Thursday morning, we loaded the two horses

in the trailer, Kristi's kids and Jensen in Marilyn's

and Matt's suburban and I drove to Blanding with

the horses and the kids!!!  We arrived safely!!! Kristi

stayed in Payson to tend the kids there!

We did have a few problems after we arrived when

one of the horses stepped on Camryn's foot and we 

thought at first it might be broken.  Luckiley it got

feeling better soon and she could walk on it.  And then

Panda broke his halter and ran away.  We chased him

for several blocks before catching him.  We finally got

them settled in their new, temporary home (Bryce's field).

Jeremy R. was not too sure about the horses in the first

place and we did not make a real good first impression

with him!!!  

We all love them already (well, except for Jeremy and

he will learn to love them!!!)

This is "Cody" with his previous owners.  He is

the horse we bought in Spanish Fork.  

This is "Panda".  We drove to a small town

named Avon that is right by Logan, Ut. to get

him.

Camryn and Cody!

4-H lambs

Camryn and Carter raised lambs for 4-H this 

summer.  They kept them in our back yard. 

It involved feeding them 2 times a day and 

walking them almost daily.  

Even Ellie became friends with the lambs.

It seemed like after her puppies were sold

she needed more attention and needed friends!!

Washing the lambs getting them ready for the

fair.

Showing the lambs and being judged.  Camryn's

lamb took 7th and Carter's lamb took 8th.

There was also lots of entertainment at the fair:

a carnival with a rock climbing wall, a concert and

a rodeo.
