Good Morning. Weekends are nice because we are all together and are able to get more tasks done around the land. The weather is warm enough to work outside, so that is what we have been doing. A lot of our land is pasture, but it has been unkempt. Slowly, my husband has been mowing it down with just a little lawn tractor. It is funny to look out and see him on this small mower in this big pasture. So, yesterday I decided to lend a hand. That kind of work can be therapeutic for me and I needed some therapy after this week because my kids have been driving me crazy. Being a stay at home Mom can be frustrating at times. I love my boys, but they are boys and it is winter...so let's just say cabin fever with toddlers can be an interesting combination. Anyway, so I spent an hour or so mowing and then I gave up because my finger tips (with gloves on) were going numb. Not to mention I was mowing down weeds my husband had left up on purpose, so as not to spread the seed all over. Whoops!
Our chickens are enjoying the warmer temperatures, so they come out of their hen house more often. My husband told me that while I was mowing yesterday, Sabrina was going crazy. He said she was annoying and wouldn't stop talking. I wonder what she was upset about? She doesn't do that while he is out mowing. We did get another egg yesterday morning. I think this morning for breakfast we are going to cook them up and have them with pancakes. Yum! I will let you know how they taste tomorrow. My oldest son, who is four years old, is excited to try the eggs and truth be told, so am I.
Today will be another day filled with chores, but the more chores we do the prettier our land looks. It is amazing how quickly this place has transformed and we will be putting in new windows and painting this summer. Then, it will look awesome. I can't wait!
Enjoy your weekend.
