Happy Mother's Day!

What a beautiful day we had for our traditional Mother's Day picnic!  We hope that you all had as nice a day as we did here in our part of Minnesota.

Earlier in the week it was a different story.  The snow began Wednesday afternoon and made for a slushy drive home from work.  Here is the view from the milking stand at evening chores.
 And the next morning - about three inches of very wet snow.

But, easy come, easy go... it sure didn't last long!  The fields are very wet though, so planting is delayed again - Kevin is getting impatient!

The kids enjoy the spring weather as much as we do!


News from the coop - more new chicks.  This is Mamma Hen Four - she hatched out six little cuties then celebrated with a dust bath!


 Mama Hen Five is still waiting patiently for her eggs to hatch.

Mama Hen One's chicks are at that awkward looking stage - half feathers, half fluff. 


Mama Hen Two is the most protective.  Most of my pictures of her brood are running away from me!

And Mama Three's chicks are doing just fine as well. 

Thank you for stopping by the blog - we wish you all a great week!  Be well friends.

  1. Debbie, I couldn't find an email on your blog to message you. I'm wondering if you still make goat's milk soap and if you sell it? We are on our last bar and can't find local goat's milk.
