The Smiths are out of town and asked the boys to help walk their goats (that will be in the fair) while they are gone. The fair starts before they get back. So, this is an important job!
Tag and Black are the names to remember. And they are definitely not used to us. Josh had to take them and lead them so they would stay focused and walk. But Jake has given it a try...only to hang on for dear life as the goat he is "walking" tries to pull him along. We're hoping that the goats will get used to it enough that Jake can walk one of them in the next couple of nights. (I still think Joe would be better off riding one that walking one with his height and strength!) :)
But the boys have enjoyed hanging out in the barn with all the goats...little to bigger in size. And they have been feeding them the "greener grass" on the other side of the fence...which the goats love!
Yesterday, some of the corn was ready in Mama and Papa's garden. So, the boys came home after church and put on their work clothes and boots...and jumped in to help.
