Yes...Darrell did convert his beautiful chicken house into a playhouse
Yes...Darrell said we were finished with chickens in the city
Yes...Darrell said we were finished with chickens in the city
Yes...Kendra was so relieved!!!
And Then...
DARRELL CAME HOME WITH 6 NEW BABY CHICKS!!!
Kendra: "Darrell Monroe Brimhall! (these are not angry exclamations just perplexed and mildly annoyed and kind of not not surprised - Darrell would rather be a farmer than anything else) I thought we weren't having any more chickens in the city?"
Darrell: "You said 'if you get chickens I am not taking care of them.' Thus...you did not expressly forbid them (it was implied though- adds Kendra)."
Darrell: "Aren't they so cute and the kids love them and they are so cute with them"
Kendra: "Well a horse is cute too and the kids would love it but we are not getting a horse!"
Okay...you get the gist...The conversation is not ver batem either:)
Well then it gets even better. Derek wakes up one morning and goes to the chicken cage and comes excitedly to get me. Mom mom!!! There are more! What did he say? I think to myself. So I go with him and what do I see....10 chickens...yes 10!!!
Kendra: "Darrell Monroe Brimhall!" slightly more annoyance this time...but not angry...because she kind of thinks it is cute that Darrell loves chickens so much:)
Darrell: "I promise...no more...now there are two for each of us."
Kendra: "That may be so, but I'm NOT taking care of my two!"
So, yes...Darrell is now the crazy one:)
Introducing Darrell, Derek, Emily, and Sarah's second batch of city chicks (notice who's name is missing!)
I will admit this much - I missed getting the eggs and will like having those again...but that is all I will admit!!!

Oh Kendra you may have gone a bit crazy but the after result is you have aquired a very funny, slightly sassy sense of humor that is very FUN! Oh I am still chuckling at the narration of the chickens! Oh it was fun to read about your college days. Oh my brother in the celestial kingdom he will get to be a farmer.
