Wrapping up the Webisodes!

Posted by Francesca

If you’ve been following our blog, then you know that Sharkey, G.K., and I have been working hard on creating our very own webisodes.  Webisodes are little shorts that you watch on the Internet.  There is so much that goes into a production and many, many scenes needed to be shot.  Just the other day, …

Yesterday on Martha’s blog, she showed photographs of the devastation that occurred at our farm from last week’s twister.  Sharkey and I wanted to share some more photos on our blog.  Please take a look.

That Crazy Vivaldi!!

Posted by Sharkey

I was out in the garden yesterday when I came across Vivaldi the cat.  He was acting so weird rolling around on an herb called Nepeta, also known as catnip.  He was actually making a big fool of himself. You may recall reading a blog about this same thing last year.   Take a …

Yesterday, Franny and I blogged about how hot it’s been outside at the farm.  Because of the intense heat, Martha wants us to spend most of the day inside so that we don’t get over heated.  To entertain ourselves during this confinement, we decided to shoot our own baking show.  We set up the necessary …

Heat Wave

Heat Wave

Everyone has been complaining about how hot and humid it is.  In fact, it’s being called a heat wave.  As you know, Sharkey and I love being outdoors, but these excessive temperatures make it really unpleasant for furry creatures – even in the shade!

Fly Predators to the Rescue!

Fly Predators to the Rescue!

Posted by Sharkey

Franny and I were wondering why the horses and the donkeys were wearing masks when they were outdoors.  We went to ask Betsy and she gave us a lesson in Fly Predators.  It turns out that Fly Predators are the good guys who work to get rid of the bad pest flies.  It’s really an …
