This picture reminds me of one I saw of  Liesel's 2nd cousin "J."

Hmm somebody walked through freshly mowed grass!

Easter Pictures

This year Liesel was the only little kid at our Easter Celebration.  One set of cousins was getting over the chickenpox and the other set was visiting the other side of the family.  Even though Liesel was the only one we still did a little Easter egg hunt for her.  She sure had fun finding the eggs and when she discovered that there was "things" inside of them she liked it even more!

Here's an egg

I've got 2 eggs now!

"Reach"

Oh look it opens and they're goodies inside!

What a darling face!

Around the House

So what's been happening around our house lately?!? Well, our chickens have begun to lay!

I don't think I mentioned that several weeks ago our chicken count went from 9 hens to 17 hens and a rooster! A family from church didn't want their chickens any more so they wanted to know if we wanted them. We said yes and upon getting them we discovered that they had a rooster too!

I wasn't to sure about the rooster but I have to say not only is he handsome but he is nice. The eight hens that we got from our friends had been laying but they needed a light to help them start back up again, so we put a light in the coop and within a week some of them started laying. Our original eight are also just starting to lay. We are now getting between 9-12 eggs a day. Its very exciting to be collecting our own eggs!!!
