It's starting to look a lot like Christmas (don't you wonder how many blog posts start with that line this time of year? I bet a ton of them).
I'm going with a less sparkly decorating scheme this year. I know! So unlike me. I just felt like I wanted woodsy greens and creamy whites. I was inspired by this post . Scroll down a bit to see her wreath pictures – warning – she has music on her site so mute if you don't want to get busted for reading blogs while at work. It is a gorgeous blog, by the way. Please come back to me when you are done being all distracted by hers.
We are going to actually put up a real tree this year. I haven't done that in a couple of years. Just haven't been in the mood for it. I've been doing small, faux tabletop trees instead. But I'm in the mood for the scent of a fresh tree.
Today I let the chickens out while I was putting up the wreaths then I sat on my bench and was chatting with a friend on my cellphone. We don't like to let the chickens out on their own because there have been two occasions where a coyote (probably the same one) has come out in broad daylight and was stalking them. They sure put up a huge fuss and we were able to chase off the coyote but it makes us nervous to let them just roam unattended.
After pecking around for a while they decided to join me.
I love your chickens!!! My Christmas decorating is low-key this year as well. Fun to mix it up a bit sometimes!
Those chickens feathers are just so pretty in the sunlight!

Hard to believe those teensy little peeps grew up to be such beautiful chickens. Love their colors and love how fluffy the other ones are. I just want to pet them!
Ok so I came back, love the green wreaths.
I make one every year, I think I might stick with the green too this year!
Thanks
