Summer has been summering right along, and in a sense, it is almost over for us. We will be returning to work and school in the coming weeks- re-immersing in all things EAC. So it seems a recording of some of the beauty that came our way this season is in order. And there was a lot... in fact, maybe trying to list out all the fun that was had is a mistake. Kind of like describing the most beautiful sunset you've ever seen by listing all of the gases in the sun and particles in the air altering the colors our eyes perceive. Doesn't quite do it justice. Instead, let's start with one single aspect of our amazing summer, go into some detail and see where that leads...

Let's step into it with the chickens!

The chickens came our way in April. We got them in waves over a period of about a month. This made the brooding process rather interesting as we had to keep some of the littler girls separate from the rest of the flock.

They were insanely cute and we had so much fun being with them, taking care of them, and watching them grow at a staggeringly rapid rate.

We'll go into more detail in future posts about their individual awesomeness, but for now the images can do the story telling. We'll also create a separate post detailing the coop construction in which we took a dilapidated old shed and turned it into lovely living quarters for our feathered family!
