Today we are taking this

and moving it , and shoving it into this

And someone switched me at wok , so I have the day off today and now I have to go clean the coop , because
the girls have been in it for a week , and the husband went to go get the Bobcat to move it !

And he got the lumber for the run area, and it setting posts this weekend too !

Are those metal nesting boxes I see? Great job on the coop. Oh yea, please move those tractor tires or lay them down, thank you.

Oh I wish I had a bobcat--my little 3x4 is ready to go to it's spot, but I'll have to wait until I can get 4 able bodied men over to move it out of the garage. Love the color--yellow is such a happy color.

yeah, on the metal boxes, want em ? have em !

The tractor tires got moved to the other side of the shed with the other tractor tires. My husband seems to collect them ! I am uploading pictures right now

how are you going to do that?!

OK Here we go . .
First ya gotta get Grandpa's chains around

Then ya gotta go get Grandpa's tractor

And bring it up

Then you gotta hook up the chains to the chicken coop and start pulling slowly while keeping an eye on what you are pulling

Then you pull it across the yard

Then you have to lay pavers for the sleds to slid and sit on

And pack them down nice and tight

Then you have to measure, carefully

Then you have to wait until Grandpa brings the Bobcat around ( My neglected garden is a parking lot right now )

Then slowly push it backwards into the hole !

Even my entry door will be out of the weather !

And this is the view of my chicken house from my kitchen window !! yeah !!

And after all the work, Grandpa had to take his helpers on a cruise around the yard !!

What great family memories for the kids. You have such good help. I love the happy yellow color of the coop, too. Good job.
