{almost wordless} weekly snapshots #ww

Isn’t rescue chick getting big! He/she/it is almost bigger than Mama Tweet already! And, is it just me or does the little red chick on the right remind you of a roadrunner? This photo cracks me up every time. You probably have to know Ginger to know why she’s pouting. She’s thinking, just shoot me […]

Wordless Wednesday – my Mother’s Day in #Instagram

My Mother’s Day was a fun and relaxing one! The family let me sleep in and I awoke to my daughter and hubby making me homemade pancakes {not from a mix!} with blackberries and bacon – yum! Then I got presents — WooHoo! Chocolate, flowers, movies, Kindle case and screen covers along with some pretty […]

A Rooster named Gimli (and a couple of chicks) #ww

I do believe that my rooster, Gimli, thinks that he was born to be in front of the camera. Everywhere I go outside, he follows me — peeking around corners, photo-bombing post pictures and generally ALWAYS getting in the shot! Then, I can’t help but take more photos of him. His black and white barring […]

Wordless Wednesday – Chicken chasing and my hubby #ww

My silly hubby thinks he can get away with these types of things. The chickens keep running down the road and over to the neighbor’s yard so hubby has been using the lawn mower to wrangle them back into the yard. Um… really? He actually said these words to me when he noticed me standing […]

Wordless Wednesday – Totally random Friday photos #ww

Gorgeous turtle that crawled out of the ditch looking for water. We re-homed him in the creek down the road. Hubby got out the 1974 Goldwing. We took it for a short test drive up the road. Ahhh! Such a silly girl! The kids were messing around with optical illusion photos. I have more to […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – And the fun never ends #ww

I see lots of moms mention how much their little ones love boxes. The box usually gets played with more than the toy that came in it. I just thought I’d tell you that THE BOX never gets old. My kids love the box. They’re weird.

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Penny the Hen

This is one of my older hens – Penny, we lost her sister last summer :(. Penny is a red sex link {or Red Star} hen that we got at the local feed mill years ago. She is such a curious chicken, she’s the one who will follow anyone in the family around the yard […]

Wordless Wednesday – a reflection #photoadayApril

Are you doing any monthly photo a day challenges? I am! Here are the first three photos from the #photoadayApril challenge created by @fatmumslim. There are some great prompts this month! Check out the photo collage I made to remind myself to take part!     I’m using my phone to take part, it has […]

Wordless Wednesday – thrift store finds make for happy kids!

Probably the best $39.99 I’ve spent in a long long time. Salvation Army thrift = Happy kids who are getting along and singing together :).

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – the making of the rainbow cake

When I saw an adorable rainbow cake on Pinterest awhile back, I knew that we would have to try making one of our own! St. Patrick’s Day was the perfect time to bake up this colorful treat and I think that my daughter Pie did a wonderful job! We had a bit of a mishap […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – raindrops, rooster and a sunset

It’s been an up and down week but I’m still doing well with keeping up on the #marchphotoaday meme on Instagram. In between the few rainy days, we’ve had some absolutely gorgeous out-of-the-norm ones reaching temps near the mid 60’s! The chickens love it and take every opportunity to sneak up front to scratch around the bird […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Son’s drawing + horrible iphone photos

If you are a friend of mine on Facebook or a Twitter follower, then you may have already had a peek at most of this week’s photos. Sorry! I’m sharing them anyways because they’re all I’ve got. Plus, I especially love the one of my boy. I so rarely have the chance to get a […]
