Well guess Christmas weekend is here and everyone will be a few pounds heavier when we make it to next week. I’ll be at home with the family and traveling Arkansas to see a few friends. Reckon I’ll be taking the week off from blogging and see ya’ll in 2012 from Knoxville, TN. Go Vols!

Until then, I leave you with two prompts open for response.

First, If Santa was a farmer, what would you wish for? (Reference Janice Person’s reasons for why there’s no question about it)

Second, caption this. (Perfect for starting my study on Reproduction Physiology with UT Animal Science!)

Merry Christmas and the Best Wishes for an Awesome 2012!
