I haven't had time to blog because I've been at the gym with my sister in law.

 I have been a lot less lazy. 

When I get home from the gym I feel like my limbs are made of quivering jello and I haven't eaten in days. I eat and eat then I flop on my bed as much as possible to rest my jello limbs. 

Ashley is amazingly strong. You should see how much she can lift. 

She has been my personal trainer. Thanks Ash! 

My brother James is a blessed man. 

Going to the gym makes me feel tough. I want to feel tough. 

I've always seen myself as a skinny, uncoordinated weakling. I would like to change this belief I have about myself. 

I reject this belief!

 I now believe I have a long, lean, toned body that is getting more coordinated every day. 

How's that? I feel better all ready. 

Spring is heaven. I don't know how any other season can be better than spring. 

We have worked in our yard today.  Nate and I thinned our raspberry bushes and we planted a peach tree. We still have a nectarine tree to plant. 

Our chickens think we dig in the dirt just for them. They come running and look for worms where we are digging. 

Our little chicks are growing up. We had them out on the grass today. 

Tabitha our dog is scared of our big chickens. 

One of the big hens is very bossy and will chase Tabitha, but the little ones she wants to chase. One of the chicks lost some tail feathers today. Tabitha couldn't resist chasing her. I'm glad we were able to intervene. I don't need a chicken death on my conscience.

The kids have spent the day playing soccer, running through the sprinklers, playing with friends and cousins. 

My kids have it good.

I'm recovering from my long busy day. I still have things I need to do and it's past my bedtime :( 

Just wanted to post quickly. It's been such fun week.

Have a great day.

Love Kristen
