Celebrate America!

We had a Fabulous July 4th!  Spent time with family! Went to Phoenix First Assembly for their fireworks display.  Sat on the lawn and watched the fireworks above our heads.  We almost needed ear plugs we were so close. The night was so nice.  It cooled down some so we could enjoy the show.  We grilled hot dogs and ate traditional flag strawberry shortcake. Also attended their Celebrate America service which honored the service men and women.  We Sang patriotic songs and Gave praise to our Lord!
God Bless America!

Blossom Bless her Heart!

Blossom is part of the family!  We love her very much!  The temps in Phoenix can get really hot and almost unbearable for her.  We decided to make her a diaper to bring her in the house for emergencies.  It has worked out really great.  The diaper fits on her vent area and catches the waist.  She doesn't like it very much but she is happy to get some relief from the hot temperatures.  I never knew I would be so attached to this little girl.  She gives a egg every day and they are delicious! For that we are grateful!
We lost our other chicken Dandy lion at the beginning of the summer and it was very sad.  We think she had her eggs back up in her system which caused her to perish. 
Murphy has become a great friend to Blossom.  They sit in the yard share veggies together.  Did I ever tell you that Murphy is a gentle giant!
