Cold, Cold, Cold

Everything was covered with ice this morning. It made everything look like such a winter wonderland. We are getting 11 eggs a day now. We only have one more hen to start laying then all of them will be laying. We have 12 hens, 2 roosters and 3 guienas. So with the 3 major attacks we had on our original 31 that is what we are left with, we started with 25 chicks, 1 turkey and 5 guienas. It surprises me for them to start laying in this cold weather. The frost was so thick last night that when the sun came out this morning we had water dripping off the eaves of the house. If it had been cold all through the day we would have had icicles hanging off the house.


Alex has a cold and Drew didn't feel very well last night and I was up most of the night with a sore throat and headache. When I was in the hospital they gave me a flu shot so I shouldn't have to worry about that at least.


Drew starts college next month to finish up his degree and Clay is hard at work on his school work now.


Well Erin mentioned how Alex and John in the previous picture at the end of the meal woke up and started screaming together, which is true but at least they slept peacefully all during the meal and it wasn't until we were getting ready to leave the table that the scene below happened.

You gonna send some of those eggs my way? :) Aaron and I would love it! :) (Or you could sell them and send the cash, or just the cookies. :P)
