    Loves the chicken coop :-)
    Spring here in SE WA means the beginning of leaves on the lilac about an inch long!

    What is Maggie chewing on??? Really it's better to find out now because later when she throws it up it will be much harder to identify.

    Shamy, piece of straw from the chicken coop. At least it's better than the pine bark I'm always pulling out of her mouth.

    Lovely photos, Dani! And it's actually spring here too - I can tell because it got to 70 degrees and, most importantly, the food trucks are back :)

    I'm gonna work in the garden and get some more seeds sown. Then hit a quilt show with the family. :)

    I saw some silly silky chickens at a kayak rental place today and instantly thought of you.

    when I was at the dog show last week I paid close attention to the poodles because of you. They are so smart and well behaved. Or, they were at the show. ;-)

    I think your back yard is absolutely charming. Picture perfect.
