Those are a great bunch of pictures, much better than the snake!!!

Looks like y'all have been plenty busy, in a fun sort of way. That's what I would expect out of the Pollock clan!

Amy, don't feel bad. I have a hard time figuring everybody out, too, and I'm the momma:)

Katie, I like these pictures alot better than the snake, too. I stay grossed out most of the time around this bunch. I never know what's gonna be drug up to my door. I'm sure you NEVER experience that, right? I know better!!

Love ya,
Tina

I love the picture of Mary at the piano! She looks like such a big girl :)
We did the whole cleaning pool routine, only we cheated and had the liner replaced!
Welcome, Bessy! She is adorable!

Thanks for the update!
Love ya!

Well to begin with, the cat is just something I never figured on seeing on the Pollock farm. :-P Yep--yall are always full of surprises. :)

I loved the snake pictures ya'll! Having never skinned a snake myself, that was great. Now I have to try it. :) :) (I know this is the wrong post for that, but I never commented on the right one.)

The pool idea DOESN'T surprise me. :) Great idea! The Striccklens just got theirs in working order, and with their permission, we plan to make good use of it! :-P

The rest of the pictures were wonderful. :) Mary is so precious. :) :)

Love,
~Kitty~

Kitty, to explain the "cat" on the farm, well Mr. P had about a 5 second weak moment and Mary ran with it, literally, and got the cat and was back before anyone realized what had happened. You should've seen the reactions around here when the "cat" was discovered. Just use your imagination :) It wasn't pretty, ha ha.

For some strange reason, I thought you would like the snake pictures.

Hahahahahaha!!!!! That's so funny! All it takes is one slight waver, and an animal is suddenly part of the family! :) I know one little girl (Margaret) and her daddy who are at just about the same spot about a donkey--only there is no donkey around yet. :-P And somehow, I think that's how we got Bubbles as well. :-P

Thanks for the explanation. That clears things up. ;)

You tell them to leave that kitty (the cat that is) alone or Mrs. Stricklen will have their head!!

"If I lose my temper, you lose your head. Understand?"
(Quote from Alice in Wonderland)
Just ask Abby :)

Queen of Hearts,That is funny! I will pass that on to my cat loving children. (I have seen Ariana, James and Jon holding and petting it, but they're the only ones so far, besides Mary, of course.)

A donkey sounds fun, I think.
