I want six mom!


My eleven year old wants six chickens...so do I, don't get me wrong, but now? Were so not ready for six chickens, not even one! We have an idea of where we want to put our chickens but that area just isn't ready yet. It was nice to visit the chickens on Saturday, but then again, do I want to buy my chickens from Tractor Supply or do I want to find a farm closeby and buy some eggs to incubate myself....decisions decisions....I think that decision will be made next summer.

The adventure continues.....


I did it, finally got my seeds started for the garden. I was wondering if that was ever going to happen, thank God it did, with little Emma's help. I also weeded the most prominent area at the house, the one that faces Brookside Road....and I started sunflowers there as well, anxious to see if they come up and do well.

Scott managed to cut the entire lawn with a push mower this weekend, eventually he will man up and get the tractor working, but until then, he has his work cut out for him.

Jacob started his soccer games this weekend as well, for some odd reason this season he is really hyped up for the games, and I'm glad, don't get me wrong...I've wanted to see this enthusiasm from him for a while and I'm glad it's finally appeared.

The candy store has dwindled down in activity, so when I do have to work, it's kinda slow.

Hoping to spend some time in my vegetable garden this week getting the beds ready, pulling out more growth that I can't figure out what it is and trim some trees....I'll figure out how, I always do.
