Day 142 What It Looks Like At 5am

May 18th, 2012

Monday, May 21 – This is what the sunrise looks like at 5am. We were heading to pick up the Bountiful Baskets for everyone. I love going at that hour. Each week brings something new and healthy to cook. I think we are eating so much healthier since the baskets started. And it is fantastic that we can get organics. We saw these wild turkeys right outside Monarch as we flew by. Pictures not the greatest, but you can see they are turkeys. There were actually 2 toms fighting over the hen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 141b A Few More “Mess” Pictures

May 17th, 2012

Here are a few more of the photos Tiffany sent. At least, Raven, the cat, didn’t get in on the act. Can you imagine what that would be like to clean up? Those last 3 pics were after a bath. I think it might take many washings to get that hair clean again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 141 Diaper Ointment

May 17th, 2012

Sunday, May 20 – Yikes, I can hardly stop laughing when I look at these shots. Tiffany sent them just a little while ago. Brings back memories of when my girls pasted an entire roll of postage stamps all over the toilet when they were about that age. There is nothing quite like having twins, I remember only too well. If that diaper ointment is Desitin, the room smells like fish oil. Won’t that be fun to clean up.One has to wonder what in the world were they thinking. My best guess was that Bryton thought it would be fun and Gage went along with it.

May 17th, 2012

Saturday, May 19 – Here are two of my favorite laying hens. They were both chicks that my daughter hatched in her classroom. They have grown up to be quite the ladies and prolific egg layers. Picture courtesy of Becca. I think this photo was taken right before our rooster, Poseidan attacked. He is very protective of his girls.

Day 136 Truly Brainless

Tuesday, May 15 – Jelly fish are very strange creatures. They were almost impossible to photograph the way they had the tank set up and lit. Here is the best I could get. Thought that the info was pretty interesting.
