Scavenger Hunt Sunday

This week the topics for Ashley’s Scavenger Hunt are:  outside, chatterbox, comfort, in the kitchen, and trees.

In the Kitchen:  Brandon came out and we finally bottled the last of the mead.  There wasn’t enough to cork the last bottle, so we sampled it.  Not bad, but it will be much better after aging for a couple of years.

I’m also sharing my Snickers, who seems to think the basket I had for the kids’ photo shoot is just perfect for him.

Outside:  Today was a perfect day for all the kids to bask outside.  It looks like someone has mastered the art of sleeping with his eyes open.

Generally, that freaks me out.  Really.

Comfort:  What can be more comforting than snuggling with your maa?

Chatterbox:  I love the ducks.  When they don’t have their heads under the water, they are very talkative.  Yep.  I’d say they are little chatterboxes.  This is also my weekend reflection shot.

Trees:  Many of my trees in the pasture are old and looking pretty sad.  I’d like to plant several trees this year, but I’m not sure I want to with the drought.  Hopefully I’ll soon be seeing leaves on the trees.

Rainbow SHS

This week for Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Ashley gave us the colors of the rainbow, or at least the first five colors.

Red:  I saw a picture on Facebook of an apple with a heart in it, so I decided to try it myself.  I do think I like mine better!

I also have had a cardinal out here all day, so I had to share his bright red color.  I kind of like the shadow from the fence post as well.

Orange: Lucy, my Toulousey Goosey has a lovely orange beak.  It amazes me with the orange around the eyes as well.

Yellow:  This is the blossom from my airplane plant.

Green:  The evergreen bush is covered in snow and birds.

Although, a lot of the snow is melting.

Blue:  This one was hard until I realized I have a bright blue peacock.

I did also want to share that my Djali llama is feeling better after a round of antibiotics.  The swelling was likely an abscessed tooth, and we’ll probably try floating his teeth at some point, but they weren’t too bad, so it can wait until warmer weather.  Although, with the beautiful blue skies and lots of sunshine, today was pretty awesome!

Indigo:  Yeah right.  Nobody even really knows what indigo is.

Violet:  I was going to use this one of Snickers sleeping with his tongue stuck out for orange, but I noticed the violet color on the pillow.

Hope you have a wonderful rainbow filled week!

More Scenes From the Farm

Time to Eat:  Last weekend I went up to see how much hay the bovine had left.  They were there enjoying their meal.

Getting Ready:  I shared that I didn’t think Coffee settled, but now I’ve decided she is expecting.  I finally got the chance to feel her up, and she’s making an udder!  So I have one more to get ready for having kids on spring break.
