Our New Couches Living Room Stuff

W received notification late last week that my Grandmas house sold. Yay, and it meant we could pick up the coordinating chairs to our fun vintage couch.


Adalynn walked out of the bedroom this morning, saw the new chairs, and said, "Wow, these are great couches!"
Yes honey, they are. But here in America we call them chairs.

Welcome Chicken Little!

Sunday we met a very nice family that showed obvious concern for one of their chickens. This sweet little hen wasn't meshing well with their other chickens, so they wanted to find it a home with, oh, less then 23 others to gang up on it?


They responded to T's craigslist as offering shelter for displaced GR chickens, completely disclosing this chickens downfalls...she is molting, may/may not lay, and is somewhat odd in appearance. T, being the kind hearted soul he is, said yes. I had to be talked into it.


Nonetheless, we are happy with our new resident. She is sweet and settling in well. Adalynn is infatuated, and has named her Marge...a spinoff from one of Nanas hens, also named Marge. But as the name fits, we'll most likely keep it. Welcome, Marge! May you lay lots of scrumptious eggs and live a long, healthy life!

Back to the fair, the Allegan County Fair!


It crossed my mind that this summer, although I'm passing along my love of horses to my children, they don't know the whole story. And it's imperative they know the whole story. One day. This most certainly wasn't that day, but taking them to the Rodeo tonight was a decent start. And I have to say, the apples don't fall far from the tree.


I tell T that I'm boxing up the many times I've watched the kids while he's sailed these past summers. One of these days I'm gonna cash in. For real.


Then again, if I have my way I'll have a couple of tagalongs at the shows.It's a confidence building strategy: never leave home without the entourage.

The Entrance

Some people call it overkill, we call it "Gittin our point across".

*please continue to feel welcome at our country establishment. in no way are these signs meant to deter people we love.*

Happy Birthday T!

Today in history a great man was born. One who grew to love the Lord and his family, one we are very proud to call Husband and Daddy.


And we will forever know today as the day we secured the FarM...well, until I slide into the cable some dark winter's morn. But, for it's a rugged and grand entry.
