Cole is All Grown Up

 

 

 

 

 

At Dixon, Casey's son Cole, daughter-in-law Ashley and grand daughter Isaura came to visit.  

Cole almost grew up in rabbit shows; when Casey started raising English Angora in 1991, Cole was 5 years old.  For many years he tagged along to the shows until he was in high school and entered college.   Now he is married to Ashley and father to Assura.   He was only 2 years older than Assura when he started going to rabbit shows.

How time flies.
