    Temporary Chicken Housing

    We have moved about 30 minutes away from our first home. The new place doesn’t have a chicken coop, so we needed to set up something temporary. For a few weeks we left them in their coop and visited to feed and water them every other day. While not ideal, it worked out for a…

    Christmas Pictures

    I have finally finished taking and editing our Christmas photos.  I am lucky to have a baby that loves to ham it up for the camera!  In fact, this family photo was taken with a tripod and Harrison looked right at the camera.  It’s easy to get great pictures of him, because he does all…

    Big Changes Ahead

    When we bought our house we weren’t really looking for real estate.  We were both in college and just happened to see an ad for a really cheap house.  Everything just happened to work out right and we got a great deal on an awesome investment.  Well, it has happened again. After seeing 2 feet…

    Baby in a Pumpkin

    Who doesn’t love a baby in a pumpkin?  I can’t get enough of these cute Halloween pictures.  Pinterest is killing me!  We decided to give it a try.  Harrison was definitely curious about the pumpkin and his patience didn’t last too long, but we got some great pictures.   We started out with his Halloween…

    Our New Roof

    We have been working for about a year on getting a new roof put on the house.  We did the back part of the house last fall and finished up just a month or so ago.  We debated doing the front of the house ourselves, but the height and angle worried us a bit.  So,…

    Outdoor Updates

    With winter closing in on us, we worked hard this weekend to finish some outdoor projects.  Ryan and my dad put siding on the chicken coop, which makes a huge difference compared to one year ago.   While the boys worked on that, I painted the garage trim and started on the garage door.  Paint…
