I'm Back!

I think I have used that phrase before! Anyway I have been SO... busy and I am juggling so many balls in the air that I will have to keep moving but I thought I would just drop a note to say that all is well. As you can see from pictures our Church is progressing well and everyone is getting so excited seeing it develop before their eyes. This Church is going to be a witness to our community and our God is going to do powerful things in our community.

My daughter ( photo at very top) is doing really well, she is now 34 weeks and we had her "Baby Shower" on the weekend. The hot weather has been making things a bit uncomfortable for her but she is keeping fit and healthy. I have been driving up and down to Sydney every week and I think is catching up to me because I have been feeling a little weary myself.

I will have to take a picture of my veggie patch and I think I will call it"Veggies gone Wild". I'm a shame to say I have let it go wild because I haven't been there to give it the tender loving care it needs. I managed to fight my way through the jungle to get some corn and beans, I'm not sure to let it go or get what I can get out of it and make it ready for my winter crop. It did have a tough time with the hot weather and lack of water due to our problem with the dam. Anyway that's life!

Have to go now this has taken me all day to finish as I have been in and out at work, Hope everyone is well and I hope to get around to reading your blog.

We have babies !!

My Hens have been sharing the load and we have successfully given birth to four little chicks. I can't tell who is who but the hens are now called Ebony, Sooty and Inky thankfully named by Lisa from Laughing Orca. We have started fencing a bigger yard for them and we will be starting on the new chook pen soon. I called into my local produce store and was asking about his day old chicks he normally gets in he said they have gone up in price to $11 retail each. I was amazed but I suppose with the rise in fuel and grain they are one of many things going up in price and I think there could also be a demand for the chicks as people are tending to lean to the self sufficient live style.

This is Belvedere ( also name by Lisa, thank you Lisa) our handsome rooster, he is in the shadow there because he doesn't want to take all the glory for the four little weeds that are now running around the pen.

I wouldn't mind breeding turkeys if anyone has turkeys could they tell me if they are just as easy as chickens to look after and breed from.
