Busy Weekend

Kaely's Junior Prom on Saturday

A very early Easter Morning thanks to Addie~she even called Alyssa and had her come over early to see her own basket!
 
And it was sunny enough in the morning to take the chicks on an outdoor field trip
These little ladies are a week old.

Little fuzzy chickie bums are so cute
They're just starting to get their feathers
Usually they stay in little groups, but this one was quite adventurous (maybe a rooster?).

Good Morning!

Nice hot cup of coffee, ANOTHER Martha cowl (custom order for Alyssa), two fresh eggs and my new book.

Sew Serendipity by Kay Whitt

New to me anyway...apparently its on its 2nd printing.  I can see why, though.  Cute, cute patterns!

I just love this dress!  Kaely's already picked out several coats, skirts, dresses and tunics that she would like sewn.  I think I'll treat myself to one first.

Zeus found a home.  We put him on Craig's List Saturday night and he had offers on Sunday morning.  Wow.  He now lives on 10 acres with some aracauna hens that the owner hopes to will breed with Zeus.  Shouldn't be a problem from what our hens experienced!

Pie-Head now feels like a stud-rooster again. 

 He's a little banty who can only see out of one eye.  We saved him from my sister-in-law's coop where he was being beat up by the other roosters.  Our hens love him because he's harmless, but Zeus found him to be a threat and bloodied him up one night.  He's better now and the king of his own flock again.

Belle doesn't care whether Zeus is gone or not.  She has a tummy-ache from crunchy up a mouse, bone and all, yesterday. Yuck.  That dog...gotta love her.

Chickie Field Trip

We brought home 6 baby aracaunas last week

They're just starting to get their cute little tail feathers.

They got to go on a little outing to the backyard on Saturday since it was sunny and warm out.

They really took to scratching for little bugs and shoots.  That's our EXTREMELY tolerant and friendly golden retriever, Belle, in the background.

She didn't even mind when one of the babies took a little nap on her tail.  What a good girl she is!
