Sunday Songs
~A Hill Called Mt. Calvary~
That transcend all the reason of man;
But the things that matter the most in this world,
They can never be held in our hand.
Refrain
I believe in a hill called Mt. Calvary,
I'll believe whatever the cost;
And when time has surrendered and earth is no more,
I'll still cling to that old rugged cross.
I believe that the Christ who was slain on the cross,
Has the power to change lives today;
For He changed me completely, a new life is mine,
That is why by the cross I will stay.
Refrain
I believe that this life with its great mysteries,
Surely someday will come to an end;
But faith will conquer the darkness and death,
And will lead me at last to my friend.
Refrain
1968

Chickens in the Yard
Mr. H. made a fun video for me of the chickens first time to go outside. I wanted to post the video here, but had trouble. If you click the link, it should take you to the video on youtube*.
*Please remember to always be careful viewing videos on youtube. You never know what you might get when you click on a video! And even when viewing safe videos, other small video screen captures along the right hand side bar can be offensive. Please be aware of this if viewing youtube with your children.
A Change of Scenery for the Chicks
The chicks spent a little time outdoors this evening.
They happily chirped, pecked, and ran around for almost an hour.
I think they really enjoyed it!
~Dolly~
~Patsy~
~Emmy Lou~
~Loretta~
~Tammy~
An old compost bin made the perfect little yard for them.
I am not sure who had more fun.
The chickens,
Mr. H. and I,
or Miss Daisy. :-)

The chicks are 3 weeks old!
At three weeks, the chicks are half way through the indoor stage.
They are comfortable at 80 degrees.
And they have grown out of their small brooder.
Today they moved into a larger one!
and a hanging feeder and waterer,
similar to the ones that will be in their big coop.
They have quite a bit more room to roam now.
They spent some time checking out their new place.
Can you see Tammy's comb starting to form?
They've also been learning to roost!
And they're getting very good at it!
