Big Benefits....

'Colie and I are doing the Scraprack Get organized Challenge.  The first thing is to make our Big Benefits Page....I could do a really neat one with my scrap materials, unfortunately, the whole need of the challenge for me is that I can't even get into the room to do so...

My Big Benefits:
Having a room that I'm not ashamed of and can feel creative in therefore being able to make progress on my scrapbooking goals.  Having the ability to use the creative side of me instead of always "cleaning up."

'colie added an additional BIG BENEFIT: We both have to accomplish every goal in order to have our "scrap weekend."

The babies are bigger

And smellier!!!  So they have been moved as of today to the cellar....Here they are in their new home.

Our snowy farmstead.  It's bitterly cold and I am making 3 treks daily to the hen house (grey building in picture) and the big barn to make sure our animals have water to drink.  It's going to snow again tonight.  I love the peaceful look of everything covered with fresh snow....btw, did you know that chickens do not like walking on snow....I wouldn't want to either if I were barefooted!
