"well, goats of course..."

So, my brother and Lori are looking to buy a new and BIGGER home for the two darlings to grow up in as they are currently living in a pretty small space. It didn't seem too small until we all pitched in to buy them everything two girls might possibly need/want in their first 7 months of life. Needless to say, the house is full. Anyway, we talked on the phone tonight and he was sharing with me some of the "must haves" and "wants" for the new place. He said he was really wanting to find a BIG lot/house with acreage. I asked him how much acreage and he said it would be great to have like 5 acres. I asked him why he wanted 5 acres and he said, "well, goats! The girls may want goats and I want to have room for those goats in the case they do." So, there it is - one of the most random things I've heard in a long time.
Ange, someday you may be out in a big field taking my girls' pictures with their goats. Who knows!

Polly, this actually made me laugh out loud. That's really funny. I'd LOVE to have my home on 5 acres, but there is no such thing in my town. We are blessed to have such a nice sized backyard that gives us room to play. Unfortunately, there just isn't enough room for goats.

Yeah, you know...every girl's gotta have a ....goat.
Those babies have that man WRAPPED around his finger! Daughters tend to do that...
It'll be good they are getting a bigger home...it's amazing how much paraphernalia two babies can bring into the world with them.

Who knew Chris liked goats?
