OK, so I finally figured out what a blog is. Hopegroup has one and I thought, hmm, that's kinda cool. Now that Amanda has a state job that's not in ICU, she has all this time to read everyone else's blogs. She comes home and tells me about so and so's story or the cool pics of someone else's Christmas tree, yadda, yadda, yadda. I guess now everyone can be nosey in our lives, at least as much of our lives as we put on the net. And of course the grandparents can see pictures of the boys. That's all anyone really cares about, right???
Why the Garner family zoo you ask... Is it because the family is nuts? Yeah, we are, and we think it's great! Is it because dad and the boys are hyper? We are, but that's because boys are supposed to run and jump and wrestle and get dirty and hunt and play with machines and... Is it because we literally have a zoo at the house - 8 horses, 4 dogs, 2 cats, 13 chickens, about 20 fish, and whatever birds happen to come up to the feeder at the kitchen window. OK, yeah, that's a good reason too, but it's really all of the above. You know what, I remember when I was a little boy and would go to the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler, TX and watch the animals, spend time with my grandparents, all that kind of stuff. It was a blast. Don't you love the fun of going to the zoo? Well, we're lucky because we live in The Garner Zoo.
When we have time, get bored, or have something really cool, we'll "blog" some more. That can be used as a verb, right? See, I'm catching on!
Here's pics of Luke trying to keep Gus from eating the ornaments and Garrett with his cookies he made.
Welcome to the zoo!
