Look at my newest toy! I love her already. Apparently so does Sesame. It’s an Ashford Traveller and I bought it from a really sweet family who used to own a bunch of sheep but they’ve sold their land and haven’t had sheep for quite a few years. They were sad to be selling their [...]
Mike and I have talked about getting chickens for a while and last Wednesday we decided to go look at baby chicks tojust’ see what was available near us and to find out a little more about them. Yeah, right. We both knew it was pretty likely that we would come home with some birds. [...]

Phoebe, my pretty princess of a bunny died on Sunday night. She was lethargic and not breathing well so we rushed her to Dove Lewis- the emergency clinic I was hoping I’d never have to take a pet to. After several hours we cried and decided to euthanize her and then cried some more. …
