Just a Little Scoop.....

Snow is still melting from the snow storm we got this weekend. We got around 8 inches and it was bitter cold due to the wind. Denver got more I think. My yard is a muddy mess, but moisture is so badly needed here that no one is complaining. It doesn't feel like spring, but we are getting ready to plan the garden for this year. We are going to have to put up fences to keep chickens out. They have had free reign for last few months.  Last week Art found a nest of eggs on the tractor seat. He put a stop to that by covering the seat. Amazing why they feel the urge to lay any where but those top of the line nesting boxes they have in the coop. 

Jon and Alex came for a visit last week bringing along the Chlo Bear. What a treat for us since we hadn't seen her for a month. 
She is cute as ever. 
She got to stay a few extra days after her mom and dad went home. 
I forget how much work a one year old is. 

                                       We had to much fun.....

This week is Spring break for Toby and Cole. They are hanging out with us. 
Cole is sick with a bad cold. 
Toby has been wanting his own chickens so we let him pick out two,  and we will keep them here for him. Well he had fun holding them until he forgot and put the little fur ball down for a second to go to bathroom and the cat with one swipe took the little baby chick out.
So hard to explain to a six year old. 
Toby cried for two hours.... 
Today grandpa took him and they got a new one. Tobs decided that he would leave him in his box rather than take the risk of loosing another. 

                                                   

I'm still working and liking it lots. I only work a few hours a week, but it gets me out and gives us a little extra money..

I'm knitting a little turtle toy. Look at the chicken I made for Chloe last month. 

Cute...

Looks like Erik and Michele will be coming home in June for a furlough and then going back for dedication of the New Testament in March of next year. 

They will live in Chicago for now. 

We are going to an auction on Saturday in Grant, Nebraska.  

Going to get Cole a  haircut tomorrow. My lady in town does a good job. 

 He actually asked me for one...

For those who have no idea that is a miracle. 

I'm reading a book called the Trillion Dollar Conspiracy,  Jon wanted me to read it with him. 

It is about our government and a little disturbing to say the least. 

Art made stir fry for dinner. 

My sister Joanne has a birthday coming very soon. 

I'm studying 1 Thessalonians in Bible Study on Thursdays.  Jonah on Tuesdays. 

We might go to sunrise service on Sunday. 

May all who read this have a blessed and happy 

 EASTER.... 

I'm thankful for my Savior Jesus...
