The kids left home and I got all the rabbits: About this Blog

In 2004 I took my daughters , then 11 and 14, to a 4-H club meeting. We were there to see about the clubs Horseless Horse group as my youngest wanted a horse so badly. A want I could not fill in exactly the way she would have liked, this, I thought, would be the next best thing. The club no longer offered the horseless horse project, but the girls decided to join 4-H anyway. They signed up for the rabbit project and the rest is history. We went from one rabbit each, to a prize winning show line in Mini Rex for my youngest, Kathy, and a prize winning show line in Mini Lops with my oldest, Brenda.
Now, these many years later,the kids left home and I have all the rabbits.

The kids think they look like they work at In and Out burger, oh wait, those are only in Californian too. OK, a milkman. Oh wait...only people of a certain age ...anyway they don't like their white uniforms...lets just say that. Of course we annoying mom's think they look sharp! But nag constantly to" keep those whites clean until after you show!"
