Chickens

We are getting a chicken coop. Don't ask why, because I don't even like eggs! We had chickens growing up and I thought it would be fun for my boys to have them. My mom offered to take any eggs my boys do not eat off my hands and I can give them to other egg eaters, so I guess that is a good reason to have them. So, we have 3 chickens so far. They are so cute and growing so fast. My son, Jayden, named the yellow chick Woot. I named the other two Tender and Nugget.

My Son Loves His Garden

My son has a garden. He is really into it! It's cute to see him so excited about his fruits and vegetablkes now and he loves to eat them because he grew them all by himself.
Here's his strawberry basket:

His first strawberry of the season:Checking out his peas:
Watering his blueberry plant:

There were aphids on his lettuce so he got some ladybugs. Here he is cowering in the background while my brother-in-law releases them:

The aphids are all gone now:

Now he's playing with the ladybugs:

Check out his huge pea!!!

$5 Box of Crap

I ordered a $5 Box of Crap. No, not literally crap, this. I can't wait to get it, I hope it's good. I ordered one for my sister too.

Of course, I had to order the boys some stink bombs.

New Soaps

I made a few new soaps I will be listing today or tomorrow. First I have to get to the store to buy a battery for my scale so I can weigh them.

Kittens

My cat finally had her kittens! She had 4. They're so cute!

More New Soap

I got a few new molds in the mail yesterday.

New Soap and Bath Teas

I got the cutest mold the other day. It's a little baby angel in an egg. Isn't it cute?

I also made some bath teas for my long soaks in the tub! They're made with oatmeal and dead sea salts. This one is Red Hibiscus and Acai. It smells so good. It's my favorite.

This one is Chamomile:
This one is lavender. I use this one before bed. It's very relaxing!

Sad, Sad Day

All weekend I promised my son a root beer float from A & W if he was good. He was! So, we got in the car and went to get it only to find that A & W packed up and closed over night! Now I'm going to have to find something else to bribe him with.

As if that wasn't bad enough, I then went to Sonic to get us Cranberry Vanilla Sprites and they were out of Cranberry and Sprite!

New Reed Diffusers, Soaps and Bubble Bath

I listed some new stuff in my shop. My sister took the pictures of the reed diffusers for me while we were up camping. Isn't she nice? Of course, she wanted one in return!

More Yummy Soap!

I only bought 2 bars of soap on Etsy last week (but this week will be a different story). This time I bought from Burnt Mill Candle & Soap. I ordered Strawberry Cheesecake and Honey Coco Mango. I could smell them as soon as I opened my mail box.

I opened the box and they smelled so good. I even got a little sample of Cherry Cola soap ~ my boys loved that. They've been bugging me to order them some. So, I ordered Cherry Cola and Blue Raspberry Icee....hopefully those will keep them happy for a while:-)

I am using the Strawberry Cheesecake one and I love it. My whole bathroom smells sweet after my shower.

Camping

I sort of went camping. I went Wednesday night and came back last night. That was long enough for me! It was very pretty and green but cold! I couldn't take the cold. We saw lots of animals ~ mostly elk and turkey.

I got home around 11:30 last night. I openend the front door and I hear the voice of my alarm (which I didn't set before I left.). I tried to turn it off but forgot how so my alarm went off. The alarm company called asking for a password and I had no clue what it was, so they sent the police over. After proving to the that I do indeed live here, they finally left and I took a shower and crashed out.

My First Giveaway!

And the winner is ........Jo Whitehurst!!

For my very first giveaway, I picked soap from my favorite soap shop on Etsy, Bare Bumm Bath. So far, I've bought 45 of her soaps. I give them away as gifts, my poor little college student sister snags them for her and her friends and my kids take them. Everyone who has tried them loves them! I love the way they lather (I love lots of bubbles!) and they leave my skin feeling so soft, I rarely need to use lotion. Once you try these soaps, you'll be hooked!

To enter, visit Bare Bumm Bath and then come back here and post a comment by June 5th with the three soaps you would like to try. On June 6th, I will put all the comments in a bowl and have my son pick the winner. I will then post the winner and I'll need an address and have 3 wonderful soaps sent to you!

Here are just a few of the available soaps from Bare Bumm Bath!

Acai & Mangosteen: Diamonds in the Sea:

Purple Passion Fruit & Guava:White Tea & Ginger:
