Hard to believe we're in the last month of 2014!
I had many more breakfasts with these two goofy girls.
Sadly, we lost four chickens. I highly suspect it was this guy (and his family).
We've started closing them all up at night. We also got a rooster, which is only tangentially related since he probably won't do much about keeping possums at bay. A friend of ours needed to get rid of him. We originally planned on putting him in the freezer, but he's such a nice-looking rooster that I hope we can perhaps get some chicks next spring. That is, if the neighbors don't complain about the crowing at 6am (hens are legal in our neighborhood, but roosters are not -- dogs barking all night, on the other hand, are perfectly legal).
We had a fun Thanksgiving dinner at our friends house. J had a great time, surrounded by kids her age.
We also went hiking at Beaman Park and I took them on a long walk around downtown. After the weekend was over, though, I asked J what her favorite activity was all weekend and she said "Going to Noah's house." Apparently running around with a half-dozen other kids is her cup of tea.
