Peace and Tranquility

We had a peacefully tranquil Mother's Day Weekend, even though the weather wasn't great we did get outside and pick some dandelions. Mr. Asa LOVES dandelions! He will go out of his way to pick a bud just to rub it on his lips and chin (right Ma?), he loves how soft they are, thank God he doesn't have allergies!

 

Brian is embarrassed about his lawn, he hates that it's not lush and green, but it just started growing!

 

And here is Farmer Henry's Chicken Homestead! :) :)

 

check out the photo bombing white Delawares... They kept following me around, they are the rulers of the roost too, they are little bullies!



Crazytown

Crazytown is what our world has been lately. Busy, Busy, Busy... One project after another and work, work, work. We finally got the baby chickens outside in their coop the beginning of last week. They are so much happier! There was a lot of help from friends and dads to get this coop done. Big thanks to all who made it happen. I will take some pics soon, but in the meantime not much house cleaning is happening because we are having too much fun enjoying the gorgeous weather that has finally arrived!

Lots of Popsicle Capers!

 

 

and afternoon drives!

OMG....

 

These little pale skin boys are almost as bright as the sun... Lots and lots of sunscreen!

a special place

Here are 3 kids doing something that they love, spending time with Grampy and going to camp! It was school vacation week last week and Thursday afternoon Grampy loaded up the 3 eldest and headed for the woods. Thanks Dad!

Fresh air and lots of walking in the woods does only one thing...

Scary Things

So this little part of the country up here we call New England is a little on edge after yesterdays bombings at the Boston Marathon. What makes it so scary is that it happened on the streets I have walked down before. The ones I'd go bar hopping with friends who went to College just a short distance away. I thought back to those good times and now feel sadness because those streets are now scarred and will never be the same... I texted my friend Becky last night, I told her I wanted to give her a hug, for her and for her beloved Beantown. She now lives outside the city with her husband and two children and commutes to work, but these are her streets and I feel so sad that someone has broken them.

OMG

Please pray for Boston! Thankfully the best hospitals in the world are in the Boston area. You will overcome Beantown!

Finally

Finally Asa is feeling better! It has been a tough 7 days and now ending in pneumonia but thankfully antibiotics are doing the trick! As crummy as he felt he still really wanted to play outside.

It was sunny but chilly on Saturday. We finally got out their x-mas present that they hadn't been able to use yet! Gracyn just chills and really likes being along for the ride. He sits back with his arm up on the door riding shotgun and playing DJ with the radio.

Gracyn eating his chocolate bunny!

What a cute Red Sox fan :) Don't mind the brooder box in the background. Warmer weather needs to hurry up cause I'm tired of chickens in my dining room!
