Ho,Ho,Ho from Maybelle Farm! It's Saturday evening Dec. 17th and it has been such a wonderful day. I went to Santa's Land with my daughter Darcy and her children Rowan and Declan. We met my son David and his wife Rachel and their children Austin and Ella and just had so much fun. We have been going to Santa's Land since the early 1970's. Last week an article in the Reformer announced that Santa's Land would be closing for good on Sunday Dec. 18th, 2011. We decided we just had to go and enjoy the place one more time. It just made my whole holiday season in one day. I'm going to attach some pictures and you can see how much fun the children were having on the little rides. What a great day weather wise too!
There still is no snow, it was chilly but not too bad. We left Santa's Land and I stayed at McDonald's so Darcy could finish up a little last minute shopping and then we came home. At 4 p.m. I went up to do chores and Darcy helped me move Lyra, Star and Colby to the barn. That meant taking them away from Thistle - where they have been for the past month. He is just frantic that his women have left him! Oh well, at least they were with him for just about one month. This means that lambs should be born hopefully about May 1st. That is such an exciting time but also stressful too!
My grand daughter Rowan is having a sleepover tonight and then tomorrow I work in West Brattleboro all day. Monday Jonathan has to go to Dartmouth/Hitchcock for a consult with a surgeon as to what has to be done for his Diverticulitis. Oh my.... it's such fun growing older and having the old bady parts go to #@!* !! Well, I guess that is all for now and things are very peaceful here at the farm. Goodnight from Maybelle MaMa
