Today the weather cleared up and I was able to get the girls back outside. I managed to get a small portion of the run covered so hopefully they won't get as soaked.

Yesterday my husband and I went to Roseville with our oldest daughter to get her a newer car. She now has a 23 ev. I got my tiller Friday and my husband and I got a big part of the garden tilled up but still have a lot of work to do before planting time. Hopefully I can get it done this weekend if it's not raining.

She's 14 and this is the first time she has ever been excited about gardening. I will be helping her out with her garden just to make sure she doesn't get discouraged about it.

She got broccoli cauliflower spinach cabbage Brussels sprouts and a variety of onions. She got really excited about it but said she didn't want to do anything but Brussels sprouts and broccoli so I told her that she was also going to be able to grow food for her family and she said okay then I will try it.

Just found out that the store where I get my chicks from has EE, BR, CQ, SF, SLW, WL, and BSL. Going to try to get my husband to get 2 of each but if he says no then maybe just 1 of each.

Aftwr they've been eating a while, making the chick food into a mash with warm water goes over well with chicks. Mine attack it when I give it as a treat.
