Five Things for Friday
1. See those 8 little ladies up there? Those are our new baby chicks! Shawn and I have been talking about getting backyard chickens for a while, and Friday after work we headed to our farm supply store and picked them up. They are all sooo cute! I snapped this picture on Saturday, and they have already grown so much! Can’t wait for them to get big and start laying us fresh eggs.
Check back tomorrow for a fun little post all about “our girls”.
2. Now that Shawn is going in to work so early, I’ve started going in to work early too. And I am loving it! I’m off by 3, and it still feels like there is so much of the day left. Plus, I get to see pretty sunrises like this on my way in to work in the morning. Not a bad way to start the day.
3. We have a ton of trees in the front yard. So many trees, that they were blocking the sun from 2 of our garden beds for a majority of the day. My dad was brave enough to climb allllllll they way up that latter and trim them back. Now the beds get full sun! I think we’re going to start planting next weekend, fingers crossed.
4. Remember that wedding we filmed and photographed almost 2 weeks ago, and I talked about how nervous I was? I am almost done editing all the pictures, and I am so happy with how they turned out! Guess I got myself worked up for nothing.
5. This is a bit of a shameless plug, but my Facebook page is SO close to 1,000 likes. We are going out of town to Carmel this weekend, and it would be oh so wonderful to be able to celebrate 1,000 while in my favorite mini vacation get away town. If you haven’t liked it already, it would make my day if you could like my Facebook page and get me to up to 1,000. Thanks friends! Have a great weekend!

Those baby chicks are so cute, Natalie! Yay for getting over 1,000 Facebook likes too, you deserve it.
ok it’s too early in the morning and I can’t think. . congrats on over 1K!!! don’t know why I added the zeros :P
hey, congrats!!! looks like you made it over 1,000K!! just liked your page!!! I can’t believe I wasn’t following you on FB before! anyway, where do you guys live? I’ve always wanted baby chickens!!! I don’t think they would be safe tho in our backyard. . I’m in WI. . if we were on a larger property, maybe we could build something. . anyway, they are so cute!
Thanks Alice! I did hit 1,000 and then some. Woo hoo! Will definitely be celebrating all weekend. And we live in Danville, CA. It’s about 25 minutes outside of San Francisco in the Bay Area. And we’re very lucky to live on about an acre of land, and still so close to town. It’s the best! And I’ve seen some coop designs that are ideal for places that get really cold in the winter. Check out backyardchickens.com!
Those chicks are so adorable! And getting up early really does make a person more productive, doesn’t it? I’ve been trying to get up earlier and get social media stuff out of the way. It sure helps! And if I haven’t liked you already, I’ll make sure I do! Have fun in Carmel!
Love those sweet little baby chickens! I loved working early hours – getting home early was the best. That wedding photo is gorgeous – I wish you were close to me and could do my wedding! I just liked your Facebook page – not sure why I didn’t already hah. I’m 2 away from 200 likes and I’m getting excited, but 1,000 is really something to be excited about :) Have a great weekend Natalie!
Thanks Keri! Wouldn’t that be so fun if we lived closer and I could film your wedding? I would love that! Maybe you should do a CA destination wedding, *wink wink*
You’re over 1000 on FB! Have a great vacation!
I know! I’m so excited! We’re celebrating for sure. Woo hoo!
Your baby chicks are sooo cute! I will be so jealous when you have fresh eggs from your own chickens! I see you’ve made your 1,000 likes! Congrats! Have a great weekend celebrating!
Yay, so fun, your little chicks are so adorable! My brother has chickens and it’s so fun to have fresh eggs. What a gorgeous view, getting off at 3 is perfect! Yay for Friday, hope you have a great weekend!
Ahhhh! Your little chickies are just the cutest! How awesome that you guys will have fresh eggs! So jealous. :) And YAY for almost hitting 1,000 likes on FB! Sharing your page today!
Your little chicks are so adorable, Natalie! How fun is that?! And I would love to go into work that early too, just for the view. Gorgeous! And that’s so exciting that you’re almost done editing those wedding pictures. Hooray! Hope you have a great weekend!
Beautiful friend, what a lovely post. I love those 8 little baby chicks!! One of my dreams is to have backyard chickens. They are so adorable and it is so much fun to have fresh eggs. You are a great photographer, my friend! You shouldn’t be nervous. And I already liked your facebook page one year ago, but I will invite my sister and cousins to like your page. Have an awesome weekend ;-)
They really are the cutest! We tried with chicks 2 years ago but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. Some were roosters which we couldn’t keep. Others got taken by some hawks. Such a sad moment for the kids who had named them and everything. Enjoy it! It’s an adventure.
I love how the wedding photos turned out! You’re skilled girl!
I gave you a shout out to help get you to 1,000. I’m rooting for ya!
