  • Went outside to check on the chickens and four of them were missing. They always sit on the fence at night and when Mark comes home from work he says they let him pet them. We have 12 of them, there are eight on the fence.

    I took a short walk around, and found them…..in the trees. I think I should have known this is what they do.

    Now when they start laying eggs, do they lay them in the trees? Mark put nesting boxes up today. I hope they start using them soon. I think we have about 5-6 weeks left before they lay. If it goes as planned, we should have plenty of eggs. My sister Robin has 5 chicks that are about 4 weeks younger then ours. She asked me yesterday if I wanted a rooster. She has two, which means she will only have three hens! (And two dinners) I don’t know yet if I want to save their life….

    Maybe she will keep them and have more chicks?

     

    Anyhow, anthony has been keeping me quite busy lately

    I wouldn’t let him open it, so he decided to climb on it, which is very convenient because there is a fish tank next to it, which he likes to play in and terrorize the fishes.

    I am finished painting my living room and like how it turned out.

    I am working on painting my kitchen, and I LOVE how it is looking!

    Maybe some pictures soon?

    Mark took some pictures off his phone and transferred them to my computer.It seems like it was just yesterday he took some of them.

    They could have used the slide in the back ground with the tarp, but lawn chairs are more fun I guess! They keep going back to it, and I am finding more toys migrating from their bedroom!

    Anthony had a late nap and is just now waking up at 7:30!

    Figures….bedtime is in an hour.

    Haha.. Not a chance!

     

  • Today is such a beautiful day. Every day should be this nice..gentle breeze, lots of sun, not to hot, or too cold.

    Washed both cars today

    Fed the chickens

    Fed the rabbits

    Fed the kids

    Ahhhh yes.

    Mark left for work and I am sitting on the back porch with the two youngest. They are playing so nice together in the sandbox next to me now. The older kids will be arriving off the bus from school shortly. Carter had his summer olympics today, and the others had “play day”today. Their last day is not until next week, but it sounds like school is over, since they have no school work planned, just activities and trips.

     

       

    Can’t wait to hear how their day went, and to see how many awards Carter won. He said this morning that he thinks he is the best one at the high jump. Well we shall see.
