~ Sunday Funday...

Spent the day doin things around the house... picked the garden real good this morning, I'll be sharing veggies with family/friends.  My honey cut the grass down in the barnyard and I do believe the animals really like that, it was really gettin tall. This evening everyone was walking around find things to eat.

 Yummy homegrown beets

A "Me Time" Kinda Monday...

First I want to say I did not even get on my computer til 2:30pm today... thats a big deal for me, lol.  Normally thats the 3rd thing I do after I jump out of bed... but not today, after I dropped my daughter off at work (8am) I decided to stay off my computer and just enjoy the day outside with my animals, the sunshine and a crochet project... I must say it was lovely, relaxing... and just what I needed.  

Coffee & Crochet = Happy Girl ;)

One of the many crochet projects I'm workin on... this baby blanket needs to be done by Friday, I started it Sunday night bout 9:30pm.  My hook has been flyin all day.

Beautiful fall day

 My Lazy Daisy has the right idea... soakin up the sun

Momma duck brings her 8 ducklings out to the main yard to free range,

 I put Tulip & Ringo together for a bit just to see if any love was in the air...

there wasnt, lol

Ringo... wishing there was love in the air, lol

 Nope the girls just wanted to munch the tasty green grass and leaves... 

(I should know this month if Star got bred last month)

So he decided to reach for the leaves instead of worryin about the girls, lol

 I put alittle water in that container lid for the baby ducklings... 

they played in it all day

 Scarlet and her 2 sons... they still follow their momma all around the farm

Tulip & Star loving the extra freedom away from their kids...
