The Chook Yard

Ok, so I haven't gotten to the video repair yet. I'll get to it, no worries. Just be patient. You demanding fans, you.

But I do have these for you!!!!!


And this:


How many preschools in the states have you seen with live chooks (chickens) and peacocks (or something peacock-ish) running through the yard. The children are not allowed to chase them and they are a bit shy. But the kids collect the eggs and sell them for about $4 AUD a dozen. They store them here:


And yes, since I'm on the pre-schoold board , I'm making an executive decison to paint the fridge during the year end parent working bee.

And since we're all about Gracie today, we have this:



And no, she hasn't been mistreated in any way. She just bonked her head.

And we have this. The Gracie version of a rally cap...only we're not really cheering for a comeback. We just like it this way.



Don't hate us because we're cool. And gorgeous. We can't really help ourselves.

And just because we can't leave it as a Grace-o-rama post:


Thanks Grammy for the Halloween socks.

And speaking of Halloween. 100 hotdogs for the neighborhood party ordered and picked up. 75 goodie bags stuffed and ready to distribute to neighborhood kids. Big bowl of American candy sitting on the counter waiting for trick-or-treat (thanks Debbie). 1 tooth fairy costume complete. 1 blue morpho butterfly costume complete. 1 comander Cody costume and gun ordered and received.

Stay tuned for "Halloween with the Cavanaghs" coming up soon.
