happy birthday to Chex

Happy birthday to Chex! When we picked Chex up from being neutered, I had one question for the vet, “How old is this dog?.” He responded that he was right about a year old. Before we could even get to the truck, big sis said “mama, if Chex is 1, then he needs a birthday … Read morehappy birthday to Chex

Between a toilet leak and yet another chicken attack, this week turned out to be a rough one. Thanks to box bus wrecks and giant peanuts there was still plenty of laughs to be had…by me at least. The toilet has been on the to do list for a while, but soaking wet carpet was … Read morebox bus wrecks and giant peanuts

Life was all about playing barbies and planting herbs this week. The barbie house was completed and the barbies were dying to move in to their new house.

“Mom, we’re like Bob the builder!” I heard that on more than one occasion this week. We spent the first half of the week playing bob the builder, building a tv stand.

February 9, 2020February 9, 2020 by littlehouseofdiy

Chickens, horses and cleaning, then sleep and repeat. Feed the chickens, feed the horses, feed the family. Clean the coop, clean the stalls and clean the house. Surprisingly, the girls are still into helping at least on the first two and sometimes on the third. With extra chickens in the coop now, we have had … Read morechickens, horses and cleaning

coatracks and a barbie scale

When the highlights of the week are coatracks and a barbie scale, it clearly wasn’t an eventful week. I have been desperately wanting to get our laundry room re-done so we had a place to hang up our coats. The colder weather here means more coats, gloves, hats, boots…and mud, which means a whole lot … Read morecoatracks and a barbie scale
