Broccoli

Much to my surprise, I see broccoli. :)
I have never been so excited about a vegetable.

New Plants


We went to Lowes to find a climbing shade plant to go on our new gate we built. We found a wonderfully smelling Pink Jasmine. I can't wait for us to make the planter box for the bottom of the gate so it can go in and start making that area what it should be. I imagine EVERYTIME a breeze blows through the breezeway it will fill that area with its fragrance. 

Ryan also bought me a raspberry bush to plant. Raspberries aren't his favorite, but I plan I eating them freshly picked. 

The rest of our day was spent trying to convert an old dog house that someone made with plexiglass sides into a nice space for our quail's permanent home. We've placed it in view from our studio so we can enjoy watching them while he's making jewelry and I'm sewing. It's not quite finished yet, but I think it will be wonderful when it is.

Pics around The Best Little Farmhouse in Texas

Our blueberry bush has buds on it now.  I can't wait to see how this turns out.

Champ daydreaming in Ryan's chair.

I love our rooster.  I think he is so pretty.  Ryan is posting to ADD LINK HERE to verify what kind of rooster he is. Ryan thinks he is a XXXX.

Now we have Quail

10 Quail 
 


Champ finds the biggest possible stick in the yard to chew on.

 We fenced in the backyard today.  I finally have a nice gate for the breezeway entrance.  My Coca-Cola sign went perfect on the top.  Ryan and I are planning to add a planter box to the bottom with some type of climbing vine.

I can't believe how much the ducks have grown

Getting Bigger

Our chickens and ducks are getting so big. 
 I can't wait to move our ducks outside. They're so messy.
