Farmily Members

We got new chickens! And ducks! We had a wild neighborhood dog jump our fence and kill our chickens, so for awhile we were without any. Having a million projects and a baby kept us from getting more straight away, but we have more now!!!
I'll be posting a new chicken coop build, once we build a new chicken coop haha. Till then,

$2 Trunk before

I got this trunk for, you guessed it, $2. I needed the storage but it obviously needs a makeover. Which will come in a different post because im not done but thought talking about it would help motivate me to finish!
Till next time

Painting a 90's chandelier

If  you're painting the inside and outside of light globes different colors, paint the inside first. Then, use a plastic drink bottle turned upside down in the light bulb hole to keep overspray from getting on the inside.
Green, clean, classy

2017

This is my first picture of the new year, of myself because, of course, I've taken like 500 of baby Z already! Love her!
But the point of this picture is to remind myself that i may be a stay at home mom and i may have a homestead to run but that doesn't mean i can't look good doing it, or at least presentable... Keeping it real haha.
I gave up flip flops sometime last year and it helped me to not feel like a slouch in public. I don't wear makeup but i did buy a lip gloss (ok, my mom got it for me.. Take about giving a hint, right? Haha)
So, besides continuing to strive to be the best mom ever im also going to try not to have such a "mom/farmer" look. -sidenote- i donated all my hair a couple weeks after baby Z was born and now 14 months and several haircuts later, my hair is growing out without the "I'm growing my hair out look" so that's exciting!!!
What are some of y'alls goals/resolutions this year?
