Nearly There~

So we scrimped and we saved and we gathered every penny from the couch cushions and FINALLY were able to march right on down to the IFA and buy the chicken yard of my dreams. It’s enormous. Rhen had it put up in no time.

But the very next day…

this crazy stuff started pouring down. As badly as I want my little chicken girlies to be free and roam about in their new yard–I’d like them not to drown in it. *sigh*

So, we’ll have to wait a bit for dryer weather to try it out.

Pray for my anxious, crowded birdies–and for some sunshine. Will you?

Scattered Showers

Just on my way to teach class and felt compelled to snap a  picture of that sky. This is what the weather man calls mostly sunny.

Ummmm….yeah.

Once I got to class it opened up into a full bore torrent. Sorry, but I didn’t get any pictures of the barrage. It felt smarter to just stay inside and wait for Noah to sail by.

Trust me when I say–it was wet–lovely and exciting, but very wet.

April showers…and all that jazz.

Snow Heaven

If you adore snow, like I do- then waking up to this beautiful stuff is a dream come true. Now, if I could just get it to go on for about 4 days.

Mmmmm. Heaven.

First Snow

Wahooooo! SNOW!!

Not a ton, yet…but I’ll take it.

So, this house is exactly 9 minutes from my daughter’s house and she didn’t get any snow that stuck.

You know what I think?

I think my little house is magical.

 

 

Odd Little Storm

So, it’s April, and we have our green leaves and budding trees and flowers popping up all over the place and POOF!

We get this.

At first we thought that it was just a flukey little fly-by storm…

but it just kept stopping and starting, over and over…

for two days!

I kept thinking, “Oh, sure. NOW it snows.” Just when we’ve given up on any winter and started wearing flip flops.

Don’t get me wrong–our poor mountains can use the snow pack–we’ll take it. But we watched for snow. We begged for snow. We prayed for snow…3 months ago.

Mother Nature has a wicked sense of humor.

Sincerely.
