Family Fun!

Today we had so much fun! Daddy's cousin Josh and his wife Sherri came with their kids. Its super that we get to see them 'cause they live in California and its been 2 years since they've visited last. Well, we met at Aunt Holly's and had dinner and had fun:) Josh & Sherri's kids are so cute! The oldest, Chase, is 5 and then there's Anna and the youngest, little Ellie. It was really nice to see them again.

Bye;)

Oops I forgot...

We have had Chickens for over a month, and I have forgotten to write about them.We started with seven but just recently bought two more , so now we have 9.They started out upstairs because of the temperature, but curently live in the backyard in a coup we made last year.
Every morning we open the coup and in the evening, after they go in, we close it. They are fun and feathery, and are as entertaining as any TV show. It's really fun to keep them. They are all layers and we hope they are all pullets (hens), beacase we have to ,um, get rid of, any roosters.
But, they are super fun to have!

Where is summer..

Where is summer when you really need it? Some people want summer the most when it is the middle of winter. Not me. The time I really want it is when its in the inbetween stage. You know, when there's still snow on the ground, but its almost warm enough to go outside without a coat?
(thats right about now).
So where the heck is summer?

Frozen

Fall rolls
by.
Leaves blow
away,
and grass
dies.
All is Grey.
But the sky
jealously
holds back the
snow.
The world is
frozen.
The Earth is
Dormant.
It falls slowly to
sleep.
Finally,
Sky throws her
white
blanket
over the Ground.
