Welcome to Kinnikinnick farm!

"Hey everybody!"  "Look it's Farmer David!"  "Time for morning chores!"  On July 7th,  my family and I went on a trip to Kinnikinnick Farm.  It is in Caledonia,  IL.  You get to stay in a tent cottage thingy ma bob!  There is one master bedroom,  one bunkbed,  and a closet bedroom for two people.  You get to do morning and afternoon chores: feed the pigs, feed the chickens, collect the eggs, milk the goats, brush the donkeys, etc.

On Tuesday, some baby chicks came.  They were just one day old!  They felt like a fluffy ball of fur.  We had to teach them how to drink water before putting them in their homes.  Have you ever held a baby chick?

Shopping Trip

Today my family went to Once Upon A Child.  Every clothing had a tag.  If the tag had a red line going through it, it was $1.00.  Otherwise, it had a price.  We went into the dressing room to try on all the clothes.  All of a sudden I tripped over a leg .  I looked at the floor.  I saw a pair of yellow flip-flops.  My sister Muirenn was trying to climb under the door while me,  my Mom,  and sister had only underwear on!   After awhile, my Dad and my sisters went home.  We scored some good clothes and after paying, my mom and I began to walk home.  First, we stopped at Starbucks on our walk.  Then, we walked two miles home.  It was fun!
