Our Mixed Flock Journey!

[N F C]

Good morning everyone! Today is the day we head to our sons and tomorrow is the day we head to Oklahoma...I do not want to make this trip, but at least we will get some extra time with them! I just hope they are happy once they get there! They are planning on coming home in March for the baby's first birthday and for Christmas...if they can't we will be heading their direction! I will try and check in when we make stops on the road!

I hope my oldest son doesn't get eaten by the roosters while I'm gone...! We are starting to get more eggs, we brought in 7 the day before yesterday...I will have an overload of them by the time I get back...good thing I have friends that love fresh eggs!

We were able to get the first coat of stain on all of the lower cabinet doors yesterday and here is where they will sit until we get back! It's amazing how much better they will look when we get the second coat on...as the drawer fronts look so much prettier than the doors do right now!

I was thinking about saying something funny, about your son's rooster safety, but more important things in my mind now.
WISHING ALL OF YOU, A SAFE TRIP

Was wondering if you had time to get your son one of these before you leave.

Good morning IM! Thank you...it will be nice to have it finished! I think the backsplash is so fun! I love the idea of being able to change what I have behind the stove!

I can’t wait to see what designs you pick for that!

I suppose I can order it and have it delivered...he might need chainmail pants too...

Finally on the road...what a long day! Talk to you all when I can!

We unboxed our new sink, which was delivered yesterday, to make sure that it arrived with no cracks or chips...it's super heavy! I can't wait until I'm using it and not just looking at it!

We are staining the backs of the lower cabinet doors today! This is the first coat. They will get two coats of stain and then we will seal them with two coats of spray on finish and I'm not sure how many of the final brush on finish we will use!

The drawer fronts are completely stained and have the two coats of spray on finish on the fronts! The lighting wasn't the greatest for this picture!
