Our Coop

 

These sweet chickens are constant entertainment for the whole family - and I'm so happy to get to paint them!  We're preparing for a new horse to arrive, so our days are full of farm work.  We've got two wood piles burning as I clear dead branches from the woods around the chicken coop.  Travis was out to help Mike with fencing, and Michaela and her family joined, too.  Finishing after dark, we came in for calico bean soup,Yahtzee and a game of Kings on the Corner.  Of course, Mom joined us for the games!  We've been playing cards a lot while Mike has had so many days off for the holidays. I love these quiet winter days full of progress and family fun!  Painting number 4749 in 4749 days.
