Quick Update....

I thought when I started this blog, I would be able to write everyday! Boy was I wrong, wrong, wrong! Anyway, my baby girl turned 7 today. Seven. SEVEN. Where do the years go? That's only 3 away from 10, double digits. I. am. not. ready. However, I don't get to choose that now do I? So we will enjoy the next years that lie ahead of us! I have been so very blessed, God gave us 3 healthy children. Virginia Rae got three new 'pets' today! Our dear friend from church, gave her 2 Silkie hens and 1 Silkie rooster. We love our chickens, just not the hawks that keep getting them :( This spring, more chickens are on the list. I hope to get several big laying hens, and some more bantams. We love the little ones, the kids love carrying them around and petting on them. I enjoy getting the little colored eggs from them! I tried a new bread recipe this week, Milk and Honey, I loved it. However, our bees died this winter, rats moved in, bees died out. The recipe takes 1/2 cup honey, I am being a little stingy with my honey until we get more bees!!
