Updates to my Mr's already busy schedule. My Mr. is running for the House of Representatives. I'm so proud of him. Anyone interested in volunteering in the campaign should email him (his contact info should be on his site- follow the link). As a quick primer in all things political (just kidding) we watched Mr. Smith Goes to Washington a couple of nights ago. Look out Utah State Legislature!
Updates on the new chickens:
Clock-wise from the top: Mario, Fred, Little Jerry and Mr. Gordon. (and yes, they are all hens (as far as we know)). The bigger they get, the more I think about having to put the old chickens in the freezer. It's not the freezer part that has me worried. It's the what happens before they can go in the freezer. I'm letting my Mr. take care of that part, because while I think I can handle eating them, I know I would have a hard time killing something that we named. (and sorry to anyone we have named chickens after- killing them isn't some sort of statement about our relationship)Updates on C.
We bought 12 of these totes to store eggs in for our city youth council's easter egg hunt. We figured we had close to 7000 eggs this year, and probably got 5-6000 back at the end. Our goal is 10,000 eggs next year.
Hey, what a fun box to be in!
I'm not so sure about the whole being-buried-in-eggs-thing... If he turns out to be deathly afraid of the easter bunny and refuses to participate in easter egg hunts, we'll know where it came from.
Well, mom and dad are smiling, maybe it's not so bad... (he was really happy when we pulled him out though)

I don't think I could intentionally kill anything with feathers or fur unless it was deliberately trying to cause me harm (let alone named). I feel bad about the mice I've killed in traps. I guess when we have property, I'll stick to gardening.
;)
Or you could always give the chickens away to someone else (I see them on ksl classifieds sometimes) when they stop laying.
:)
As long as they pay in eggs, I am happy to feed them and collect the eggs. But lacking eggs, I am also fond of homemade chicken and noodles!
