Since it is Earth Day today I am going to write in green. Corny? Yes ... but I don't really care. LOL
I have been crazy busy this month and some how missed blogging ... and so much has happened! No there is still no baby on the way and I am not done with Chemistry class yet. But I am working on both of those still. So who knows.
We had a 20 year old 4 wheeler that finally kicked the bucket. Which was fine by me since I could not drive it anyway. So we decided it was time for a new piece of farm equipment!
This is our new 2009 Yamaha Rhino! She is a beauty right?! And I can actually drive her!
Functional and fun to drive. What more could I ask for?!
My big project so far this spring has been getting my garden set up.
My FIL tilled up a nice garden for me and I put up the fence and got a few things planted. I plan on doing more but I think I am waiting until May to finish planting. Give it a little more time to warm up first.
This is where my garden grows.
Red Peppers, Tomatillos, Tomatoes, and Green Peppers
Green Beans, Sweet Pea, Snow Peas
I plan on putting in much more. Everything is ready to be planted. But like I said before I want it to warm up a big more first.
In less than a month Bocephus and I will be celebrating our birthdays. I will be 29 years old.
Bocephus will be 2 years old the day after my birthday. Woohoo for us!
The chickens are finally able to get out and run around again. I am sure the appreciate the warm weather again too.
This pretty little Plymouth Rock Hen is working on making me more babies! WOOHOO!
This is the rooster that I call Chicken Nugget. He likes to crow outside my bedroom window EVERY SINGLE MORNING. I told him if he kept it up I would make him into a chicken nugget! The name just stuck after that.
The widow peacock is still alive and morning the loss of her beloved. We totally need to get her a new hubby. Maybe we would even get some peacock babies out of her again then!
Chicken Nugget and his crew.
The chickens are doing well but we are down to 1/2 a dozen now. So my next spring time project will be more baby chickens. I plan on putting a fence up around the yard just outside the chicken coop. Partially to keep Bo and the other dogs out and partially to keep the babies in where it is safe. Once I have gotten the fence up and the coop cleaned out properly and some new chick supplies I hope to buy some more Barred Rock and Plymouth Rock chicks. I am so excited to have babies again!!!
We celebrated another Easter.
Gotta get them in while I can. Before long he will not want to play along on the whole Easter Bunny/Santa Claus thing. But if he is smart like me he will just keep playing along until 18 or so. LOL
The farm is a bloom with new babies. Calves are dropping left and right now.
And they are so dang cute!
If I could snuggle them I would. But I can't out run the mamas so I don't even try. Maybe if I try and hug them from the Rhino ... OK fine I will stay on my side of the electric fence.
I am also hoping for some kittens this spring/summer.
Are you girls listening?
HEY! Pay attention! I am talking to you young lady!
I more of these!
Pretty please!
But PLEASE no puppies. I can't take anymore dogs right now. You all are crazy enough.
Don't make that face at me young lady! I am serious! One more dog around here and I might go live in the barn with that cats! Don't test me!
