Hello from the coop...

Well, I am slowly adjusting to being a stay-at-home wife, soon-to-be mom. Friday was my last day at work. It was bittersweet- I had been there for nine years. I am very grateful for the years I worked there- but I am also looking forward to seeing what this next chapter in my life brings.

What I most enjoy about staying home these days is taking my time to do things. Before, time at home was so precious it seemed like I was running around everywhere I went. Now, I have time to soak in the little things and enjoy my house work throughout the day.

Today I took a walk to the mailbox and then gathered eggs. Here is peek from the coop.


 I love all that is going on in this photo. Crazy chickens.
The one on the right seems to have her feathers ruffled a bit.


 We had quite an egg drought through the winter months.
They are slowly starting to lay again, we get around 7-9 eggs a day.


Mrs. Lace seems to enjoy the spotlight, she even posed for me.


All the chickens.


 Green, blue and brown eggs. They make baking and cooking more fun.


Happy day!
Hope
