An End to Winter....Part 2

Well, as I stated in the last post we were having such weird weather, well yesterday morning I had to take my van to Toyota for some work, it was 34F, and SNOWING!!!! It actually had acculmulated to about 2 in!!! Than if that isn't crazy enough, by 3:30 pm you couldn't even tell we had ANY moisture, it was sunny and dry, snow gone!!!
ohhhh...one day I will get my garden planted, in the meantime my kitchen resembles a greenhouse!

Is it ever going to be truly Spring?

Well last week it was cold and slushy rain, then had a few days of gorgeous weather, then last night ANOTHER cold front moved in. It has been dreary and gray all day, cold and sprinkling on and off.....I want SPRING!!!!

Anywho...Jake was hard at work building a rabbit hutch today...did I mention we are going to breed meat rabbits soon?....well we are. His next project will be rebuilding the chicken coop to be more easily accesible to clean and bigger for 3 more chickens, we are graduating from maintaining 3 to 5 all the time.

Our little chicks are getting really big, we had them out yesterday in the yard and when it got dark we went to put them up and couldn't find them anywhere...we were getting sad, until I heard alittle peep and found them huddled on the other side of the house up against the house. Poor babies, they were so scared.

Jerika's broken foot

I can't believe that I didn't blog this from the first entry....Jerika broken foot, well actually she fracture her third toe bone on her left foot where the toe bone joins the top foot bone. She has crutches but nothing else. There isn't much they can do for it other than stay of it for 4-6 weeks. She can really go on her crutches!!! She broke it jumping off her friends stairs....you telll them not to, but sometimes they just have to learn the hard way!
