Today is the first day of Spring!

And what is more natural than spring lambs! It certainly feels the part - we have new lambs, new kids (goats), chicks and pigs. The sun is shining and it's beautiful outside (even though I'm stuck inside :(

My babies moved away. My daughter in law, Melissa, has officially moved to Washington state with my grandsons, Landon and Carter. Our son James will be joining her there in a couple of weeks. He is in the Army and is finishing his training in Virginia before go to his base. Of course Murphy visited with his "law" and Melissa came down with Chicken Pox on the way there. So now she is over 1000 miles away, doesn't know anyone and is sick. It's just a matter of time before both boys (4 months and 2 yrs old) come down with them as well.

Back at the farm, our first batch of baby chicks is almost ready to join the other girls. They are a little more than 3 weeks old and have their feathers and want to fly! We still have them under lights to keep them warm for a couple of more weeks. There is another batch in transit for the second brooder pen so it ought to be fun!

Well back to the grindstone. Nice talking at you!
