Fun Facts Friday!!

Good grief, it’s Friday!!

It seems like it was just Monday!

Our week is all a matter of perspective.

So I am here to say it has been GREAT!

We will be adding some beautiful horses to Adoni Acres farm soon!

The bay’s name is Gridlock and the paint’s name is Gambler.

Aren’t they beautiful?!

As the weather gets warmer, my goal is to change our schedule quite a bit and drop Tate and Eliza’s naps.

It will be a transition for sure – and I have been slowly working on that this week!

You can see here how well it has been going, ahem.

There is a recent birthday boy who had a gift card to spend.

So I took these two and that gift card to town to do just that!

Legos for the win!

We have been keeping the farm and house in shape because our realtor has been showing it about twice a week!

YAY!!

We have some spring projects that we are getting done too.

Many hands make light work – even when it is freezing cold and feels nothing like spring!

Part of the fun of warmer weather is seeing our kitties again!

Do you remember our new stray, Callie?

She sure stuck around!

The warm barn, being fed twice a day, and having our other cats as friends might have had something to do with it!

She is a SWEETIE.

Even though we are only getting glimpses of warm weather here, and it has not been sunny hardly at all, I made honey ginger lemonade one day.

It tasted like summer!

Most days still start right here.

The kiddos have been listening to a lot of stories on CD!

I took the everyone to visit Blake at work one afternoon!

He was harvesting miscanthus grass on the next ridge over.

This grass is perennial, grows all summer long, dries over the winter, and then is harvested first thing in the spring before it starts to grow again.

It is then burned for bio energy.

It was a fun field trip, but very loud and dusty!

Eliza did not want to get out of the van, so I stayed in the van with her.

I also got to be at my happy place this week!

We had dinner with our favorite people while the farm was being showed one night!

Kayla has an egg hunt planned for Sunday, so us girls worked on getting it ready!

There also has been lots of intense therapy going on this week, for our sweet baby.

She deserves nothing less.

I found this new treat on date night!

They are yummy and come in many fruit choices!

Wow, a lot of my photos look blurry!

That will just say more about our week, I suppose!

I need to purpose to use my big camera again!

We plan, Lord willing, to have a big meal after church on Sunday with our family and several friends!

I LOVE, love, love planning, cooking and baking for other people!

I am going to make these Champagne Oranges – a recipe from The Pioneer Woman.

I have made them before! We reduce the sugar by less than half, and use honey. We also use the sparkling white grape juice version.

Do you all have plans for Easter Sunday?!

The resurrection of Jesus is the reason for our faith!!

What a great thing to celebrate!!

I hope you all have a beautiful resurrection Sunday!!

Happy weekend, everyone!!
