I've been busy baking this past week. 250 cupcakes to be exact! It was for a Womens' retreat at a local church. If you'd like to see more flavors hop on over to polka dot barn and check 'em out!
Now onto the really big news at our house. We've added a few new members to our family! They're little, fluffy and make the cutest little peeps....yep, we're now chicken farmers! The kids have been asking for a long time to get some chickens and being that we have a barn and all we thought it was about time we actually owned some animals. So we set off today to the feed store, let the kids each pick one out and then spent the rest of the afternoon playing with them on the front lawn. These are going to be the most loved chickens ever. At one point Maggie and the neighbor girls were walking around the neighborhood with the chicks in the hoods of their sweatshirts. Sam said goodnight to them several times and I've already been out to check on them twice this evening. Who knew you could love a little bird so quickly! I NEVER thought I'd use the word bird and love in the same sentence....birds have always kinda creeped me out but here I am, a proud owner of 4 little chicks!
Jo just couldn't get close enough to them! She kept getting right in their faces and waving.
Once we get this chicken thing down maybe we can add a cow:)

A cow?!
Wow! I'm impressed with the chicks. So will these be free range chicks? Are YOU going to be collecting eggs?
