These past couple of days have been really busy. Our hay (which by the way looks awesome!) needs to be cut so Daryl got the haybine out and was checking it out to see if there was anything wrong with it before it went into the field. I think it must have been OK, because by the end of the night the hay was all cut. 
We wanted to square bale the first crop because we’re having a hay ride later this month and what good is a hay ride if you don’t have hay right? But the timing is bad, so I think we’re going to have to have someone round bale it for us. Daryl’s been looking to buy a large baler, but hasn’t had any luck so far finding what he wants. He did get the hay cut and is just patiently waiting for it to dry so we can get it baled. We have a wedding on Saturday, and it’s supposed to rain on Saturday so it’s going to be close. As for me, I’ve been keeping busy with the Irish Fest coming up wayyy too fast in our town. I can not give enough praise for anyone who would take the lead on doing something like this. It’s a little overwhelming at times. OK, really most of the time. I’m sure it’s all going to work out.
When I was outside tonight I snapped a couple of pictures. The first one is of the chickens that are constantly hanging out by our barn lately. I’m really not sure why, but they either are smashed up against the barn or just hang out underneath the wagons. 
The second picture is an update on my little birds nest with eggs in it that I found about a month ago. Yea, it’s not such a great picture anymore. I had high hopes for these little eggs, but either they hatched and flew away.. probably not, or they got eaten by another bird or cat. Yup, that’s probably what happened. 
And the last one is the photo of the day. It’s my kitchen clock. Well, it was my kitchen clock. I saw her this morning and the no eye ball in the socket gave it away that she was having trouble. I guess it fell off the wall last night and that was that. I did end up throwing her away and am hoping that I can find another one to replace it. I’m not too worried.
