Chicken Farmer

I have decided to add to my chickens. I had 5 hens and they haven't been laying very well so I wanted to get a few more. I have a friend that wants to buy eggs and Amber will buy eggs if I have them so I ended up adding 14 more hens and a rooster. Once these babies start laying I should be in business. lol It is so funny to watch them though. My original 5 hang by themselves, the 11 I bought hang together and the 8 mom bought later stay together. It is so funny to see the division amongst them. I do have some modifying of the coop to do as I don't have enough roosts right now and they are squabbling over who goes the roosts. They are amusing little creatures.

Congrats Karls Family

My dear friends are having a baby. I am so excited for them. Can't wait to see you all at the end of the month.

Last game of the season

Tucker had his last game of the regular baseball season last night in Sandpoint. They lost 2-8, but not bad considering that they played with 8 boys. In the 2nd inning our poor center fielder got sick right there on the field. I felt so bad for him. So we played with 2 outfielders. Kinda rough. So another season done. Tucker did a great job this year playing 3rd base. I am really proud of him!

BBQ and Bonfire

We had a great time last night. We bbq'd and then had a Bonfire. The boys ate giant marshmallows and were so hyper.

Veggie Garden

Last weekend we finished the veggie garden. I planted everything and there are lots of little starts coming up.

A new background in hopes that the sun will come out and my strawberry plants will produce fruit.

Been awhile

I haven't blogged in a while have I!! Well let's see...

Monday:

We had a game in Sandpoint. Tucker and I went early to enjoy some lunch and go to the health food store. We purchased our favorite Smoked Goat cheese and snarfed the whole thing. Thankfully it is only 4 oz. DELISH!! Once at the field we waited around for everyone. Our team finally showed up, but NO Sandpoint team in sight. Apparently, we had different schedules. Sandpoint had gone to Rathdrum!!! So they had to come back so we could play. lol We won!!! Tucker picked a great game!

I LOVE SANDPOINT!!!

Tuesday:

My big boy came back home. I do LOVE Tuesday's for that reason.

Wednesday:

We went shopping for some summer stuff for the ever growing boys! I think I need a job so we can feed and clothes these two. The boys had a guitar lesson and I got in a quick tan. The lady sold me some lotion with tingle factor. Can you just say "ON FIRE"!!!! Wowzer! I was hot all night.

Tonight: baseball for Tucker and Ethan is going to go hang out with Godwin.

So there is our exciting life. lol Oh and I did mow in the rain this morning!

Peace

This is just one of my views in my backyard from my deck. I love it. I know it is just a bunch of trees, but I find it so beautiful and peaceful. I have been trying to sit outside while its nice and just enjoy the beauty instead of always working my bum off. I love to garden, but there is something to be said for just sitting and enjoying the beauty.

Boys!!!!

Ethan and Tuck have been wanting to buy paintball guns, but I have been discouraging them because they are expensive and I am afraid they will loose interest quickly. So.... Ethan looked on-line and decided to build his own. So yesterday Ethan and Tucker built 2 paintball guns for less than the price of one. Cool!!!

Oh and while at the hardware store I received tons of praise for what nice boys I have. I love to hear that. I think they are pretty great, but it is nice to hear others say good things about them too.

1st win

Tucker's team played Priest River yesterday and whooped 'em!!!! 20-8 We had 2 home runs and a Grand Slam. The kids were so excited!!! They needed that confidence boost. It was an awesome game and some nice plays.
