Nothing Going On Here

Today we built a raised bed for a garden.  We started to get the itch when we were thinking about which Fall plants to pick.  I don't think we've decided on any plants, but we have built an 8' x 16' raised bed out of landscape timbers.  It doesn't have any dirt yet, but that's a minor detail for a garden.  Here's a picture:


We haven't had a chicken update lately.  They must be full grown now, since they are surprisingly large.  Dorothy and Rose are biguns.  All the chickens cluck and Jackson loves it.  I can't hold them anymore since the coop has to many escape routes, but they are friendly on the other side of the hardware cloth.  Here are some chicken pictures:


We had to call off a trip to Birmingham when we were about halfway there this weekend.  We missed Meredith's birthday party, and Jackson was devastated.  We will have to make the trip sometime soon.  Sorry Jerrod & Susan, you didn't get out of talking about how good Alabama is at football.

Jackson had 0 accidents today in his Thomas underwear.

Okay, since i'm in the blogging world, i'm going to start leaving comments. Lettie, I'm so sorry you got sick! Let us know the next time you are in Bham and we'll have Jackson over for some cake. =)

No fair, Jerrod and Susan! You leave comments, but "Permission Denied" on your blog! :)

This blog is not a communication mechanism to reach blog authors who could be considered wittier, and in general, more cool. If you don't straighten up, I'll have to "Permission Deny" further comments from janie.
