The bigger Chick's


These are the bigger gang. 5 Hens and 1 Rooster. Rhode Island Reds, so nice brown eggs. We're looking forward to that.

Baby chicks & More.


Their they are, so cute. I will be selling eggs this summer hopefully. I just gotta make a art quilt with chickens in it. They are so fun to watch.

Chicken Time

This is my new coop. Just got moved in so it is a mess now, but I have allot of cute idea's I'm gonna do. Soon the chic's will be outside when it warms up and they get a little bigger. Although I have 6 bigger ones that can go outside real soon.
I will update when improvements are made. Thanks for looking.

More Fabric dyed

I used a dye for fabric called Dylon. It worked very well and easy to use. I will be taking a dye class in May to learn lots more about dyeing fabric. I really love the effects I got with this snowdyeing.

The Farm!

This is my new home! We were lucky to have been able to purchase my Hubby's family farm over 10 years ago and just moved here in the fall.
We sold our other house and fixed up the basement into a cozy 1 bedroom apartment to live in while we fix it up.
We have painted the house since this picture was taken but will be adding new siding after the new windows are in, later down the road. It also now has a new roof and the whole up stairs has been gutted and re-wired. My wonderful son came up to WI from Ok to do all the wiring he could get done in 2 weeks. He also was able to get some ice fishing in. Both my son's are handy man's and have helped us out alot. I will post updated pictures as we move along. I am getting excited as the upstairs has all the 2x4's up and wiring like I said. Next step is windows then insulation. More to come.

Retreat!


I'm going to retreat this week and hopefully will have some new things to add to my blog.
This is a pic of one of my Doxies. I let him out to go potty and this is what he came back with. Boo Hoo I'd been watching this Bunny a good year hopping around, and so was Gator ( name matches ). I did not think to scare the bunny away before I let him out. Not sure who was bigger................ He is a stinker.
