Some of us at school are counting the days until summer vacation is here. The rest of them…have somehow not learned to count yet.
Our remodel keeps limping along…
Each step is exciting to us…we’ve got footings and stem walls and one of us has just learned these terms.
Our view is delightrul with Mother’s day chairs…built out of wood so they don’t actually blow away in the Ellensburg wind. I love looking out the window and seeing them beckon to us…
To say nothing of the my other favorite view…
With only 4 hens and 2 of those broody, we knew we needed a few more hens. We picked up 6 Cuckoo Maran chicks and in the dark of night, slipped them under the Mother-to-be hen, whose name is awkwardly ‘Stewart‘.
She woke up to six babies and began clucking to them, strutting around the hen house.
Welcome to the Miss Moneypennys….all six of them…named by this cutie who named them, as he was playing with some plastic money at the time.
We are ready for school to be out, I keep thinking it is spring. We’ve got buildings to be built, and weddings to plan for and trips to enjoy and Grand KIDS to see, and so we know for sure, that we are indeed very, very blessed.
Progress is truly a blessing! Glad summer vacation will be here soon!
Tomorrow is the last day of school, and I am sure you remember what that feels like!
Another blogger introduced me to your blog, and being that I’m a rural farm person at heart, I enjoy your stories and photographs. You’ve got a “short and sweet” way of extolling the simple virtues of life 🙂
Thank you, Terri. I appreciate your comments. Have a wonderful day!
