This place has gone to the birds. Literally.

Lots of exciting things happening in the mayhem of life. We've welcomed several new members of the family over the weekend. David, the chicken hoarding husband, bought an incubator to hatch his own farm raised ego, I mean eggs, but hey there are worse habits I suppose.

About 21 days into this incubating which was this past Saturday, we began welcoming new baby chicks into the family. Needless to say my husband, the chicken hoarder, is ecstatic. He came in saying, "honey it's so cool. Hatching our own eggs" yes in theory, this is exciting and a great learning experience for our children....yes it's great! What is not great is he has disassembled my living room lamp, set up shop in my vintage crate and raising baby chicks in my living room!!! You'd think my distaste for this whole operation he's got going on could clearly be read all over my face, but obviously I'm failing tremendously at it.

On a much happier note, we welcomed Miss Kay to our family. Miss Kay is our new little mini schnauzer puppy, who isn't taking flap from no birds. She's been pretty well received by everyone except the Grande Trio who consist of our 3 geese trying to hiss and run Miss Kay off.

All in all we had a good weekend. Soccer games, road trips, new family pets, and lots of chicken hoarding.
