Downstairs, they had picked me a beautiful bunch of flowers, and Florian had made me a card (his first scrapbooking page!). And all day Florian and the boys treated me. We had a lovely time in the garden, the boys played with their boat track and the water again, and Florian and I sat under the sunshade and I had the computer on, it was great fun. The boys didn't even argue today!
The new chickens have already laid 3 eggs for us! I didn't expect them to lay so soon, I thought they would have to get used to their new home first, but it doesn't seem that way. Now about the chicken story I promised. Well.. the chickens have their own little house with a chicken sized door, that is solar operated, so when it starts getting dark the door goes down (very slowly, so as not to hurt anyone). Our new chickens of course don't know this, so at about 9pm I went to check that they had all made it into indoors (safer in there with foxes and such). Not one of them had. I got out there and they had all made themselves comfy on the fence around the chicken run! Oops! We MUST clip their wings if we want to keep them. Florian and I spent a good 15 minutes rounding them up and getting them inside! One of them in an attempt to escape us, even flew into the cherry tree! It was such a funny sight, Ticki joined the fun, well not really I think he was too busy watching us make fools of ourselves to come and help! It still makes me giggle. So when I have finished here, we are off out again to "help" the chickens find their way into their house!
I did a layout for DigitalArts Cafe this afternoon. This is also for the lyrics challenge at DAC, they have some great MiniKits for participating.
This is Mia on her bike the other weekend. And as she is the only tomboy I know, I thought this was perfect for Melothria's new Kit "Tomboy"
