A New Dress For The Pixie

Because she doesn't have enough clothes already....I made her a new dress. She is such a spoiled little pixie! Don't look at her shoes, she refused to change them, they are her favorite pair. Who says checks don't go with EVERYTHING?!

Mini Dachshund

How cute is this necklace?! It's from the Wee Wonderfuls book.

My Garden

Here is a recent photo of the yard. We've been working on it here and there. Darren finished the chicken's yard. He built a compost bin which you can see to the right of the chicken's fence. He also built a third veggie bed, so I can to do some fall/winter planting this year.

Here are two of my veggie beds. There is zucchini, papaya pear squash, serrano peppers, yellow peppers, bell peppers, green beans, butternut squash and swish chard planted here.

My corn, more butternut squash, grapes, and mini pumpkins.

Mothzilla! We found him in the garden, newly hatched. He was GIGANTIC!

And the rain barrels Darren built.

Finally Something To Show For The Time I've Been Away

I have been terrible about blogging for quite some time now. I have been preoccupied with other projects around the house. Trying to get everything finished before I have to go in for major neck surgery. But I finally have a sewing project to show!

What is a pixie to be for Halloween? No, not Tinkerbell silly.....

ALICE

MIA

I know, I know I haven't posted anything in such a long time! I don't have a good excuse as to why. I have just been doing other things than blogging. I do however have some new photos to share. My husband and I have been working hard on our chicken coop. Ok, so it's more like a chicken chateau than a coop, lol. We haven't quite finished, but almost there. All that is left is to paint their fence.

Here it is!

I Couldn't Help It

We have had our chicks for two weeks now, and they have grown SO much. From the beginning I had a plan to have three chicks, one for each of the Gurranimals. We had to wait for the third chick because we wanted an Easter Egger, an Americana which lays green and blue eggs. The feed store was getting a shipment of them on the 8th. So we made our way to the feed store looking forward to picking out our chick. When we got there we saw that they also got some Australorps. Yea, guess what we came home with. It could have been worse, if the kids had their way we would have brought home all 100 of the chicks they had! And of course three more sweet as could be baby black bunnies! So I think I showed some restraint in only bring home one extra chick!

So here they are, meet Tallulah Belle and Alice.

Look at how much my other girls have grown in two weeks!
