She "vacuums" frequently.
And makes the most interesting vacuum noises.
I successfully grew fodder. (Fodder is sprouting wheat or barley seeds. One pound of feed can be sprouted to make 5-6 pounds of feed for our goats, chickens and/or our rabbit.)
Haven't quite decided how fodder will fit into our homesteading, but it's pretty neat, that's for sure.
This is the beautiful mess that the chickens have unearthed through their scratching. Evidence of the life that used to keep this barn warm before us.
My Adrian really enjoyed the celebration we had in memory of my mom on what would have been her birthday. Cake, flowers, the works!
He said to the BOG, "Mama says you know 'bout Grandma Debbie too. Want to teach me about her?"
So special to keep her memory alive.
Oh I LOVE that last shot well I love everyone of them you are giving your kids such a good life. The chickens are finding treasure indeed. Hug B
