THREE LITTLE PIGS

On Saturday the Holgates and our family, minus James and Carl, went to go get our pigs. The Holgates brought the pigs to our house in the back of their truck. The kids had a lot of fun with this. They carried them by the legs and thought is was great. I have some cute pics on my phone, but I can't get them off. Haylea, Isaiah, James and I worked hard to get ready for this day. When we went out that night to check on them we found them asleep in the feed bowl. We startled one and it jumped up and stood like it is in the picture below. It was sleeping on its feet.


The pigs have been a joy to have. We have been feeding them the scraps from the kitchen. We are working on getting close to the pigs. They run every time we try and get close to them. The other day I went out with some peaches and sat in the pen to see if they would come close. They didn't come very close, but they enjoyed the peaches. I also did this with apples another time. They loved the apples also.

James and Carl are in charge of feeding them. They are really enjoying it. They fed them tomatoes last night when James got home from work. They say that they like those too. I am thinking that they will eat anything. This is exciting. They get all the uneaten food in the house. I might be able to keep the fridge cleaned out better.
We have two boys and a girl. The girl is the littlest one. They are two months old. I will keep you up on our pig adventure.
