Our Weekend

This past weekend I noticed another one of our chickens acting lazy and not eating. We recently bought 10 chickens that were already laying from a farmer down the road from us. This is the 3rd one to get sick. When I see them acting this way I normally bring them to the garage and give them a special little place to sleep to get away from the other hens. 

The boys were trying everything to get her to eat. We even bought "treat" food at Tractor Supply thinking she would go for that. Nope!

Kipton is really an animal lover. Karson talks to them and helps out, but he doesn't love all over them like Kipton does. 

I went inside to check dinner and the boys were playing in the garage. I came out to this. I took a video but can't figure out how to upload it to the blog post. Any ideas? 

Besides being on chicken guard, we also did a few other things this past weekend. We did a little school shopping for this boy going to PreK 4. He really doesn't need any supplies because they supply all of that, but we needed socks, undies, and some new shoes. He gets so excited over small things like new undies. I am thankful for that. It doesn't take much!

Daddy was home with us this weekend so he got to help snuggle these boys.

On Sunday we has the best service at church. The boys are so fun to take pictures of. (No!)

Do you see this little preacher boy? He is a character. He goes up to people at church and just starts hugging them. Our preacher said he was going to run the show someday. Lord, I hope so! That would be a mothers dream. 

Have a great week!!

Our Weekend

Our weekend was pretty lowkey.

Friday: We spent our morning with the Washington crew over at their house and we all had a blast. The boys had a great time playing with her two boys, who are the exact same age. We had naps after returning home, played outside, cooked dinner and played outside some more. It's been awesome weather here!

Saturday: Kevin had to sleep in because he had worked the night before. The boys and I got up and ate and got outside before the heat came. We decided to hike up to the blackberry bushes. It was harder than I had imagined. These boys left their momma in the dust. Climbing 3 HUGE hills with not once looking back for me. Needless to say, we all got our workout that morning.

After picking some blackberries and eating most of them, we made it down the hill to Nana & Papaw's house. We played around there for a while. Riding 4-wheelers, bikes, and playing hide and seek.

Saturday after naps, we all jumped in the van and headed to our favorite lake to fish and have dinner. It seems like everytime we go, Karson and Kevin fish and Kipton and I just eat and eat. We also played at the playground, met some kids, and looked for crawdads.

This boy ate 3 pieces of pizza! WOW!

Sunday: We headed to church, played with the chickens, mowed, built a few fires, and began painting Kipton's room. Again, pretty lowkey but that's how life is around here :)

Kipton has moved into the 3-5 year old class. I think he is really happy to be in there. I have been teaching for the past 2 months, so the transition has been easy for him.

Here's to a good week!!
