It's been tooooo long!!

Well how is everybody?
We have had such a busy last few months so I do apologies for not blogging.
Well what have we been up to? We've had lots of birthdays, concerts and other time consuming stuff.
I'm not sure if I've mentioned it but Little Letty our guide dog in training has left us to further her training. I'm very pleased to say she is doing well and fingers crossed will be placed with a visually impaired person later this month. We sewed this bag to remember her.

Houses around the corner from us were due to be demolished soon as was the front gardens. So we took some cuttings of the frangipani trees. After letting them dry for a couple of weeks we decided to plant one near our chicken coop. Unfortunately there was a huge tractor tyre under the spot we needed. The tyre has lived there for quite some time and some how we have managed to work round it, until now. After about 3 hours digging we finally got it out.

We have also been doing lots of spinning and knitting.


From blogs ago you may remember three very little chics. Know they are all grown up and laying several eggs a day. We were all very surprised when we collected the following egg. It was so big I thought it better to show the size of the eggs we normally collect and a normal size pool ball.

When we used the egg it was a double yolker. All the chooks got extra scraps that day.

By the way happy New Year MnM : )
