Around the "farm"

My mom grew up on a farm and has always wanted a small farm and she finally did it!!!  This past spring she got chickens and pigs.  She had thought that she got all hens but it ended up that "Esther" is really an "Edward!"  She was given this cute little chicken coop by the neighbors down the road and then she added a larger coop off of the side.  It came out really great!



Brady loved to help feed and water the chickens every day and he loves to collect eggs too but they won't be laying until sometime this fall

Olivia finally overcame her fear of the chickens and went inside the coop one day and helped grammie put down fresh sawdust.

Meet "Slurp" and "Burp" 
(growing up on the farm my mom always had pigs and this was always their name!)

Grammie has missed her little "farm boy!"

Chasing the piggies!
