we have a rooster (or two!)

Photo by Colton

The chicks are getting so big! I don't even know if we can call them chicks still, but I suspect I always will, even when they are full-grown chickens. These are two of our bantams. We have at least one rooster, but we think another might be one. We can't tell yet. These little guys are so much fun, and I really miss them. Luckily, Colton can keep me updated with photos throughout the summer.

outfit; one.

I find myself fascinated with fashion blogs. I love looking at all the ways people have of mixing outfits. They give me wonderful inspiration for how to use my own wardrobe. I don't have any intention of becoming a style blogger, but I thought I'd post the outfit I wore today, since I really liked it.

home again.

I have arrived home in good ol' Ohio. The weather is humid and sticky. I will be here for two weeks before heading to summer training. On the way home we stopped at Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Rochester, and my grandfather's old house. Photos to come soon.

the past couple weeks.

I had such great plans for this blog, and look. Fallen by the wayside like all the others. While normally I would say that summer is coming up, and with it lots of time to personalize and develop this blog, I unfortunately won't have the time, because I will be so busy with summer training and work. Perhaps I will find some time to work on it, however, before my summer plans get underway. Until then, here are some updated pictures of the chicks.


We ended up getting a second batch, this time six bantams.


And here they all are! They're growing up so quickly! Right now they are living at my boyfriend's parents' house, as per the original plan. They will stay there, making delicious eggs, while I visit as often as possible.

bringing the farm to college.

Last Friday I bought six chicks from Tractor Supply Co. I adore them. I really only wanted two or three, but the minimum required was six, so I went for it. One didn't make it (the dark striped one), he was so tiny that the others trampled him and he was just too weak to recover. However, the rest are doing wonderfully and they are incredibly cute and cuddly.
