Post 158: Nine.

I was part of a fun little project at the blog, I Didn't Sign Up For This! Ms. Shelly picked 9 of her favorite blogs and asked each of the writers to answer 9 questions. She asked some fun questions so I suggest you swing by and check it out!

Nine Days. Nine People. Nine Questions.

Post 157: Sometimes

I am in a good season of my life. Sometimes I wake up and I am overwhelmed by everything the good Lord has blessed me with. sigh.

156: Makin' Thangs.

Soooo, besides reading about chickens this weekend I did get to do a little bit of crafting. With everything tossed away in storage crafting has really been put on the back burner. This weekend I completed a small project for Baby's room using cheap items I could find at Alco (since I was too lazy and cheap to travel into town.)

I am pretty pleased with it.

Also, this handsome guy arrived in my mailbox this weekend. I was so excited!

You have no idea how much I love this and how perfect it will be in my soon to be fantastic nursery.

Sorry for the dark pictures it has been pretty dreary here the past few days :(

Post 155: Chickens

I started reading up on raising chickens this weekend. I think my husband thinks I am crazy but I am working on pulling it together. Now if I could only get him excited about helping me build a chicken coop! I am learning that there are so many options on what kinds of chickens to get. And I feel like it may take me some time to pull this together but I am excited either way. Have any of you raised chickens before? I am not looking to eat the actual chickens....just the eggs. I will only start with a few to see if I enjoy it or get the hang of it. Do you have any suggestions, tips, or recommendations?

Thanks!

Post 152: Lookin' Out My Backdoor....soon

I hope everyone had a fabulous Valentine's Day! I spent most of mine sleeping and eating cereal (thanks to Baby)...but I enjoyed lazing it up with my Adam. He was sweet and knows me well sooo for Valentine's Day he gave me homemade strawberry jam, homemade apple butter, and some fantastic yeast rolls. Ill take these over a box of chocolates or flowers any day! (since I buy both chocolate and flowers for myself on a fairly regular basis...hehe)

So, today I am taking care of more moving stuff. You know, home insurance, appraisals, all that 'fun stuff'. I cannot stop daydreaming of how fantastic this summer will be! Check out the view!

View from the deck. It faces west for some beautiful sunsets!We will have over 9 acres of this stuff and our land is surrounded by a nature preserve so I have tons of exploring to do!You can't see all the big beautiful windows since the deck is in the way but I will be getting better pictures once we move. I think this is going to be a FANTASTIC place for Adam and I to raise our future children, I can't wait!March 15th it is all ours! Oh, and the street name is Singing Woods. How great is that?
