I know, I know

Gosh, why do I not blog more!  Here’s the skinny on what’s been happening in our lives…
 
I canned strawberry sauce (recipe found here) so we could instantly flavor our yogurt.  Goat milk yogurt that is.
I know, I know
One of our chickens tortured and eventually ate a snake.
I know, I know
And then for some reason this happened to one of their eggs.
I know, I know
We finally shaved our sheep dog. (To be fair, we did this back in January, I just forgot to share it.) We were laughing so hard almost peeing our pants.
I know, I know
 
I know, I know
 
I know, I know
Then this darling little girl graduated kindergarten!  Whew!
I know, I know
Then, this adorable boy turned 8!  And Grandma made the ultimate mother huge squid.
I know, I know
 
 
 
 
And THEN…life wouldn’t be normal without some home improvements…
Here’s what we’ve been working on.
 
A MUD ROOM!  Well, not a mud ‘room’ per say, but an organized area so mom can be happy.  This cost us only about 50 bucks because we already had these skinny little cabinets that we didn’t know what to do with.  I’m so glad we saved them!
I know, I know
I know, I know
 
Voila’
I know, I know
 
Remember my old, ugly door?  Neither do I ’cause I have this now!
I know, I know
I bought this solid wood knotty alder door from Construction Lots in Phoenix, which has awesome deals on home improvement items.  Only $140 for this bad boy, and then I painted it and added molding and yeah, I’m pretty much in love with it.  
 
And Finally…
I know, I know
We got some great family pictures taken!  And now, the summer begins and at the end of the summer we will have some exciting news to share!
