Our son Jeffrey raised Dutch and New Zealand rabbits while he lived home with us. He was a wonderful help to us with all the farm chores. Jeffrey proudly served our country with the US Marine Corp during Operation Desert Storm. He and Laura and their children live in Beaumont, CA, where Jeffrey is a California Highway Patrol (CHP) Officer. |
Our daughter Christen has always loved showing dairy goats. We used to travel to about fifteen shows every year where she competed and excelled in showmanship as well as breed classes. Christen is now a lawyer and is CEO of MAYA Corporation in Pittsburg, PA. In her "spare" time Christen coaches both boys' and girls' high school volleyball teams, girls' basketball and judges dairy goats. |
Our daughter Lauren always loved animals as well. She would spend many hours in the barn bonding with all her own goats and wanted to almost sleep out there with them if we would have let her! Lauren is now a college professor living in St. Louis, and has discovered that although her roots were "country" she absolutely loves city life! |
Little Savanna Brooke Taylor is pictured at three years of age. She is our very first grandbaby and was born November 16, 2009 to our daughter Lauren and Tim Taylor. Savanna lives in the city but we try to get a little country in her when she visits. What a joy she is! (and perhaps our next little herdsman?) |
