Getting out of the house!

I'm sure like most people right now--we are dying to get out of the house! We took advantage of a nice afternoon yesterday and took off for a walk down the road. Can't wait till Spring/Summer!!
This is the muddy mess in the chicken coop! I feel sorry for the chickens in there!


We have been letting them out of their pen each day for awhile. As you can see, the dogs do very well--they have not attempted to eat one yet.


It is quite the hike to a bridge the kids love to go to. Up on top of that hill in the background is our house.

Ah! We made it! They love to throw rocks in, let the dogs swim, and just hangout here.


Julia gathers big rocks on the hike to throw into the water.

Noelle--well, her little legs get tired. I did end up carrying her back up that big hill!
