Bill and I just came in from serving dinner to our piggies. They are sooooo adorable and fun to watch. We have two blacks, and two oreo colored with one gender representing each color. We have had visitors as far as Chittenden. Our woods is looking nice and rotatilled. We are feeding them pig mash which I mix with a little warm water for a lovely texture and dining experience. We also collect scraps from our meals however because I cook enough to eat for 4 their scraps consist of scrapings from a pan here and there....although they did polish off a watermelon rind yesterday. Gus is like a mama to them. He walks around the pen sticking his nose in and he enjoys licking their mash covered noses. The boys come and look but are afraid of being too attached now. We may have to buy pigs from somewhere else since all of our pigs are named Wilbur! So far we are enjoying our new role as hog farmers.

We went into NY City this weekend to visit our friend Brian Gawlik (Brian looks great and he is ready for the bone marrow transplant) and our good buddy Rich Millet took us out to see The Lion King. It was one of the most amazing things that I have ever seen! Rich got us excellent seats and it was something that our family will never forget.
Sunday morning we visited with Brian for a couple of hours at Mt. Sinai Hospital. He says that he is receiving excellent care and that he is ready for the bone marrow transplant. He is an amazing person who has helped so many of us through our medical issues. All of us want him to know that we will be there when he needs us!

Weston and Taylor had quite a game yesterday! Taylor pitched and got the win and had to two hits. Weston came in and pitched the last inning to get the save and hit two home runs.
