Dave brewed beer with chickens

Dave and I really like our chickens. They have pretty much ruined our backyard with all their scratching and pooping BUT it is worth it. They are all so fun to watch.

Dave has been on a beer brewing kick lately and he brewed a batch last weekend with the chickens :)

Possum in the Chicken Coop!

Happy Valentines Day first of all. I went to let the chickens out and there was an ugly possum in the chicken coop! I was horrified. I mustered up the guts to open the coop door and ran inside to get Dave. He took care of the situation! It is times like this I am extra happy I have a big strong husband to take care of stuff like this!!!!

Dave got me chocolates and a card for Valentines Day. It would be fun to go out but we fear that restaurants will be crazy and it babysitters are expensive. He got Ava a card and the beautiful pink bear that she has not let go of since he gave it to her.

We also got some more snow! It was perfect. It was just enough to make a snowman but not enough to mess up the roads.

Oh yeah, much to my surprise all of the chickens are OK. They just spent the night with a possum. I cannot believe the possum did not kill the chickens. It really is a miracle.

Happy Valentines Day!

Ava had to go to School on Saturday

Poor Ava had to go to school on a Saturday due to the inclement weather we had last week. It was nice for me and Dave because we got the morning to relax and watch grown up TV!
I ventured out to a Poultry show with my friend while Dave stayed at home. I thought all of these years that Ava was holding me and Dave back from doing things fun together on the weekends but I was reminded today that Dave wants to do, well nothing, on the weekends and I must fend for myself. I do not sit still very good AT ALL so I like having something to do.

Oh well. Ava was fine. She had a good day at school. I had a fun couple hours at the Poultry show and I guess Dave had fun doing, well, nothing.
