Spring is here!

Asparagus is up, spinach that overwintered is ready to pick, the hens are laying again and just hours after April Fools day, (when Melissa and I both got fooled by Ashley) we have a new baby. We both headed to the barn after work and school to see the new baby, only we were about 12 hours early. Ashley was proud of herself for fooling us.

He isn't a very pretty baby at this point, hopefully he will get prettier, but he had just barely stood up in this photo. It seems like no matter how stressed you are about how you're going to feed all the mouths you have, birth is still exciting and wonderful.

I joined the Flickr group " One Object 365 Days Project" to post a daily picture of him for a year, so I'll link to it when I have more to show.

We had a cold spell over the weekend, but only a couple redbuds were bloomed. I wonder if that was Redbud Winter or is it still to come?
