Chicken Lady

I finally got chickens!! A friend gave them to me because she moved into the city limits and could not take them with her. I volunteered to take them since I've been wanting some. 

 
This is the picture she sent of the coop. I told her I needed the coop too because I have way too many projects going to add building a coop to the list. I will need to level it and add to the run, but it's a good start. Mom and dad came up to help me move it. He had to take the egg box off along with the doors and walls of the hen house. Once most of the weight was off we used the dolly to roll it out of the gate. 


My first egg! She couldn't even wait until the coop was put back together. 
   
They have plenty of room to roam and bugs to eat. 

I'm excited to see what the chicken life is all about.

Recreation of London Beef and Mushroom Pie

While in London I ate this wonderful beef and mushroom pie! I wanted to recreate it and use some of the deer steak in our freezer. I found this recipe . Of course like most recipes I tweaked it a little. I added green peas and left out the celery. I also used pie crust instead of puffed pastry. I made individual ones in these cute Corningware dishes. They were delicious!

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.
