The Last Day of Summer Vacation.....


Its hard to believe the children go back to school tomorrow. Our summer has been jam packed and C-R-A-Z-Y! I am looking foreword to my favorite fall days ahead, and sharing some really great early everyday clothing and such with you all, perhaps a smathering of dollys in there too :) I just went out and snapped a picture of proud Mamma Hen and her TEN babies scratching around~ she has them out in the junk heap picking little wee beasties to eat... the perfect end to a busy summer!

On my way in, I caught my GG kitty peeking at me~ he has always liked to hide in the bush. It was just over 10 years ago this time of year, when school had just started, that I found his wee little self hiding in a bush down by the river. Haven't a clue where he could have ever came from, but we have loved him so ever since~

Your hen looks well-fed!
Your school system is starting early--or are you home-schooling?

I would love to watch the wee chics with their momma. I trust the cat only watches...right? :~)

Yes JD :) He is very content just to watch the goings on. None of our cats have ever wanted to eat any of our chickens or their wee ones....they must know the difference, cause theyre always stalking the bird feeders. Thankyou for stopping by! rachael
