Yes, it's the monthly update

My goal is one post a month and so far I am right on target! Seriously, I swear all I do with this blog is update. Oh well, maybe I'll get better. So here's the monthly update:

* We've gone country! We decided to downsize for a while and moved into my in-laws vacation home. Yes, the same one we lived in when we first moved back from Texas (I'm being super-sleuth-like by not saying the name of the town we are in. Never know what psychos might be reading this!) Anyway, we love it here. So peaceful and quiet and beautiful.

* We are the proud owners of ten chickens and one rooster! Crazy and we've been getting six eggs a day. We had a dog for about a week (a neighbor's dog adopted us, but then they moved). She was a really sweet dog, but we're hoping to get our own soon.

* We are planting a garden for the first time ever. Both Dave and I rototillered the huge thing and it was actually a lot of fun!


* Emma had a birthday and turned seven. Sheesh! It seems a bit surreal that I have a child that age.

*Dave had a birthday and turned 30! Which is sooooo not old. He thinks so; I think not. 30 is the new 20!

I am so excited for summer! Going to the lake, playing outside, summer parties, friends and family visiting. It's going to be great!

That is such a GREAT last picture of you and Dave? I wonder who took it? So I did the pee in Draino crystals test and the pencil on a string test and they both say boy. We'll see. You look like she-woman out there tilling the garden. YAY!

I agree with Steff - that is a great picture of you and Dave! Go you for doing a garden... I am not there yet, but hope to be soon!

Well, well, well. You have gone country, chicks and all. Way to go! I'm jealous of your huge garden space, aaaaaaaah, someday.

I like your hair in the that picture of you and Dave. I won't take pictures until I lose 30 pounds. We've got a great garden already this year. I think you'll love it. Aubrey was really excited to turn 30...until he played basketball.
