Good afternoon. I hope you have had a great week.
We have spent the morning working outside and plan to head back out soon to work some more because today is only a little chilly but sunny. However, tomorrow we are supposed to have a “winter” storm hit. Yay, Spring!
One of the jobs we did outside today was to get the garden tilled for the first time. We aren’t ready to plant, especially since we are supposed to get over 6 inches of snow tomorrow, but it won’t be long now. I am excited to start posting weekly garden updates in the near future.
This afternoon we are going to work on cleaning out on of our sheds to use as a chicken building because we hope to get some baby chicks soon. It will be so nice to have our own eggs again.
The picture I have chosen as my favorite of the week is of Janna wearing her daddy’s shoes.
I think my parents have a picture of me doing the same thing at about the same age.
