Seeds in the ground!


Last weekend we planted the first couple rows of the garden with . Alicia and I planted carrots, spinach, and chard on Saturday and Joshua, Beth, and Stone planted lettuce on Sunday. It snowed Sunday night a little, but I think the ground was warm enough to protect the seeds (we'll find out in a few more days). We still have lots of seeds and space, we'll be planting more late spring stuff in a couple weeks.

The chicks are getting bigger and more feathers. This week they have learned to perch/roost. Next we need to figure out the coop situation. So many options.

Chicks and mama's Birthday

We've got 10 baby chicks. We got them on 4/19/09.
We're inexperienced parents, but so far they're lookin healthy.









MAMA'S BIRTHDAY!


























Today, we'll be celebrating the birth and beautiful life of my beloved mother, Janet. I'll add some more photos after the party.

Oh, and some pictures of our baby chicks.
