February 6th SNOW

So we have about 16 inches of snow here on the farm.....Drifts about 2 feet in front of the barn / coop doors.  I'm going to share more than one picture today.

February 1st & 2nd - Sleep Study

Zachary had to spend tonight at Childrens hospital until 6:30 pm tomorrow doing a sleep study to figure out why we are having some health issues that I'm not going to go into here.

There were a few days that I missed last month, but with February being shorter, maybe I can get all of these.  I will be more diligent in posting them, but in the meantime, tonight I posted quite a few (and need to add pictures to some as they are on another card that I don't have with me) so you will need to hit the older posts to see them all.  HAPPY FEBRUARY!
