Baby It’s Cold Outside – Chicken Update

DSC_0001

I’ve been getting requests for an update on how the girls are doing this Winter.  I don’t spend much time hanging out with them when it’s cold for apparent reasons.  🙂

They are doing just fine even though our temperatures of late have been near zero and we have had snow on the ground for a while now.

They got to leave their chicken run yesterday when the temps peaked into the 30’s.  The snow is melting and there was quite a bit of grass to peck around in.

DSC_0006

They are mostly careful to avoid standing in the snow with their little chicken feet, not that I blame them.

DSC_0005

Unfortunately, as seen in the first picture of this post the path of grass tends to lead them right to my door where they press their little chicken beaks to the glass, it’s pitiful!

DSC_0008

The newest two, Jo Jo with the crumpled foot and the other one that we call “the one that walks well”, sounds like this chicken has Indian hertiage, right?  Anyway here they are pictured with Red in the middle.  They are just as large as the rest of the flock now, but they are certainly still at the bottom of the pecking order, but holding their own.  🙂  The one that walks well is laying pretty little eggs about half the size as a normal egg.  I don’t believe Jo Jo is laying yet.

Note to self, name that poor chicken.

DSC_0010

That’s all from the coop.  I’m wishing you green pastures today!

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!

Timber! – Stampin’ Up! Card

DSC_0031

Well Hello There,

Shesh!  I finally got my computer back this afternoon.  It was in the shop being fixed all week.  I felt like someone had cut off one of my limbs!  It is scary how much I rely on my computer.

Anyhow,  I missed posting for you.  Did you miss me?  LOL

I  also missed putting projects up for you.  Like today’s card, at first I was a bit scared of the lumberjack with his big ax but he has really grown on me.  🙂  Especially since the stamp set has such cute sentiments to go along with him and you can change the color of his shirt so easily with the two step stamp process.

I gave my lumberjack a gray beard since my wonderful husband is graying, grin.  Let’s just say “Russ is my silver fox.”

I think he looks great in front of that moon shining on the water.

You can find the complete supply list below for today’s project and also how to the get the complete tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.

Saturday Night Fever – Stampin’ Up! Card

DSC_0022

Hello There,

I believe I have lost my mind over this rabbit from the Happy Easter Bunny stamp.  I love him.  In fact I just used it yesterday and I hardly ever use a stamp set twice in a row.  This image just makes me smile.  We all need more of that, right?

Doesn’t he look like he is doing the John Travolta Saturday Night Fever dance?  Boy, that brings back memories. . . .

I wish you could see this in person.  That disco ball really shines from being blinged out.  I guess you will have to make one so you can see just how sparkly it is (said with an evil laugh). . . . I know you all blame me for all those stamps you buy.   You just keep telling your husband that.  I know the truth!  🙂
