7, They seem to lay at the same time each day. Ours seem to lay around noon.

8, They seem to have matching schedules.

9, They can lay more than one egg a day (!)

Hannah and mathcounts

Update 2: A picture. With that perfect ambivalent 13 year old’s expression!

 

UPDATE: She came in 6th place in the whole state! I’m so proud of her. Way to Go H.

(Where is mom so I can tell her….)

So, Hannah is at the mathcounts state contest as we speak.. She just made it into the final round! GO Hannah!

Chicken Jumping

So, It turns out chickens like Italian bread so much they will jump for it.

When I loaded this, I did not realize its common to train chickens to do things! Check this video out!

My first 5K

I have been inspired by my kids interest in racing lately (They have a kids triathlon that they are going to be participating in next week)

So, I just finished the Augusta “Heart and Sole” 5K race. I have never done one before. My time across the line was under 28 minutes!

OK, 27:59:47 or something like that.

Still, for just getting back into running, that’s pretty good if you ask me.
