We won't do it, for a variety of reasons, but it is a great idea. <br />Ha! It makes sense now! Since the event, pigephant practically attacks us each time we go into the pen.

Then you can Youtube them :)<br /><br />I'm a bit concerned, though. Pigs (I think) have good memory... I've NO idea the massive memory capacity of a pigephant! Your hubby better be careful, the one he dragged is likely plotting its revenge.

The first year we named them Pork Chops, Applesauce, and Leftovers, just to make the point crystal clear what these pigs were for. The second year we named them after my siblings.

I told the kids that if their dad ever calls them on his phone or sounds panicky when calling them outside, one is to just go with him while another is to get a camera. They were warned that the photographer better stay out of the way and not draw attention to himself, as Dad would not be pleased to have a photographer mess up whatever he is doing. And then I warned my husband that future fiascos would be captured. :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-40072986467587441352013-05-23T07:20:41.100-04:002013-05-23T07:20:41.100-04:00There is no doubt, he is a much better attorney th...There is no doubt, he is a much better attorney than farmer.
