Little Chicks in a Big Run

DSC_0012

Hello There,

I’ve got a little chick update for you today.  These two are a little over 3 weeks old now and getting lots of feathers.

It’s been super warm out so I took them out of their indoor brooder for their first outing in the chicken run.

DSC_0003

We put a little run inside of the big chicken run in order to keep them safe.  The minute I put then out there they started chirping and their momma Goldie ran over to say hello.  I was surprised she was so excited to see them.

DSC_0015

She was so excited, she puffed up and started clucking up a storm.  This got the attention of the other girls.

Next thing I know, Goldie is holding court showing off her chicks.

DSC_0013

It will be 5 weeks at least before the chicks will be big enough to be added to the flock.  They look so tiny inside their little chicken run.

DSC_0028

Also, we have had Sadie now for 1 week.  She now has us wrapped around her little paw.  🙂

I will be taking tomorrow off from blogging in order to do some celebrating for my birthday.

Have a super weekend!

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!

Hello There,

I am sooooo very excited the new Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog will be live on the 28th, that is just 3 days away!  Whoohoo!   I think the Holiday Catalog was created just for my kind of stamping.  Plenty of stamped images in it that I can make my scenes with.   I think you will be jumping for joy too.

I’m giving you a sneak peek today.  Be sure to put the stamp set White Christmas (135767) on your list of must haves.  There are thirteen stamps in this set that rock my little stamping world.  I used just two of stamps from the set to create today’s project.  I cannot wait to show you more great scenes all made with this set.  Stay tuned!

You can find the complete supply list below for this project and also how to the get the tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.

May your day be filled with excitement!

Meet Sadie

10341760_10202990835307404_306929338201789716_n

This is a quick post this morning, just to introduce you all to our newest family member, Sadie.   I’ll be back today with a new project for you.

Saturday, Russ and I went to the local pet adoption center, SISCA to look for an older cat to adopt.  We knew we didn’t want a kitten and the older cats are sometimes hard for the agency to place so we decided to give one a forever home.

Sadie was brought in as a stray so we don’t know much about her.  She is 5 years old and super friendly, declawed and wonderful.  The agency named her Lady Cybil, lol.  That sounded a bit wicked to me so I renamed her with the help of my Facebook friends to Sadie.

I especially wanted to introduce you to her because I’m pretty sure she will be helping me out with future projects you will see here, lol.

Be back shortly.

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!
