The Trees…

I thought I would share with you some of the trees that are blooming in our yard now. The road we live on has a few beautiful trees on it, but people always seem to stop out from our house and take pictures of our trees every year. Our fullest tree is this cherry blossom… we love the color and abundance of the blossoms. … Read More The Trees…

A good day to drive…

We love to take Saturday drives. We sometimes only go a little ways away and other times we go a few hours away. We find a new town we like to visit now about an hour from our house. The boys love to ride with us and we always find a park to walk them in. Chase loves to ride like the picture above. … Read More A good day to drive…

Open window

Since it’s been nice enough a few days a week here I’ve been trying to get the house aired out from the winter. In a couple of my windows if they are open you are sure to find this guy in them. Grayson loves the outside and we often have to watch for him or he will try to escape through a door were … Read More Open window

Spring walk

It’s been getting nice some days here and other days the wind and cold return. Yesterday it was nice enough to get the boys out for a short walk. Baxter is doing a little better and wants to be out more so we’re taking it slow, but so far so good. Chase is his usual happy wanting to go, go, go self. He found … Read More Spring walk

Finally a little spring…

It’s been a long winter for everyone I think. With snow places it’s never been, or not in a long time, more snow then other areas are used to… for us the wind the last couple years is getting worse and that on top of the snow and cold just makes it miserable. But there it hope on the horizon… At least for us … Read More Finally a little spring…

Ready For Spring

We had a few good days of beautiful weather… then the rain, wind, and cold came back. It was so nice to be able to go out with the boys (dogs) during this time for almost daily walks. They have loved it and I have been feeling better being able to get out walking more. Baxter is getting hip dysplasia so we can’t go … Read More Ready For Spring

This looks a little more like spring…

A few weeks ago my friend and her father got a new mama goat and her two kid goats. A little boy… And a little girl… They are so cute. I just love baby goats. They are probably one of my favorite, if not my favorite baby farm animal. Come on how can you not love this face… They got them to keep in … Read More This looks a little more like spring…

First Day of Spring… I think NOT

So “they” say yesterday was the first official day of spring. Well at our place yesterday and today looked something like this… Not that I am complaining as it was the only good snow we actually got this whole winter. Hubby and I were both home, no thanks to my county job. They were too cheap to let us off in a foot of snow … Read More First Day of Spring… I think NOT

Guess What…

We got new baby chicks… (yes mom we did 😉 ) It wasn’t planned really as we thought we were done for a while with chickens, but these girls are addictive. A friend of ours at church was getting some and offered to add to his order because he was getting a kind I always wanted… Ameraucana ‘s 🙂 So meet our three girls … Read More Guess What…

And back again…

I know I just posted about the looks of spring coming to our area. I was looking forward to some nicer weather and the wind to not be so much of a bother. But today I woke up to this… snow, cold, wind 😦 The ground, deck, and all were covered.   I guess old man winter is not ready to let go just yet. I … Read More And back again…

I Spy… Spring

A couple weeks ago or so it looked like this… The boys were out playing in the snow… And jumping on the logs that hubby has been splitting for fire wood… It was a winter wonderland. And today…. There were blooms and buds everywhere… Pretty little flowers… Of many colors… Buds pushing through for daffodils… So many flowers coming through the ground… The chickens were … Read More I Spy… Spring

First Day of Spring… or was it?

On the official first day of spring it looked like this at my house… And the snow just kept coming down, until poor Chase had a hard time getting around… But finally it looks like this week spring is defeating winter as there are buds on the tree and a flower or two blooming. Its still cold, but warming up. I can’t wait for … Read More First Day of Spring… or was it?
