Eggs Finally

Well our hens are finally earning their keep. We now have 2 hens that are laying. The first 2 days it was only one hen, 1 egg a day, now we have 2 hens that lay once a day. Considering winter has set in we are happy to have the eggs we get.

We love it here in Missouri. This is our first Fall in quite awhile. We are so looking forward to the holidays. It is just not Christmas when you have all the doors and windows open and trying to decorate the tree with sweat running down your back because it is 85 degrees outside. When you walk around the front yard the dry leaves crunch under our feet. Drew bought a snow sled the other day. We are going to have a "kitchen garden" next year so we are going to go ahead and take the topsoil off that area and when we know that there will be enough days of freezing weather we are going to make an ice skating area out of it.

The hens aren't the only one "earning their keep" :p

Erin's cat, Tabbers, laying in wait for her mommy to come back and get her. OK, ok, she is really just a big lazy cat snoozing in the window.
