This post is full of proud mommie pictures.

Is this not the cutest face you have ever seen?
Did you guys see the darling pictures that Heather Bullard took of her sweet baby chicks?
If not, you just have to. They are so darn cute.
It inspired me to take a few of my own so I could always remember the joys of their babyhood.
I can't believe how attached I am to these little cuties.
I haven't named any of them yet, but I'm thinking.
It's hard when you don't know whether they are roosters or hens.
I would hate to give a rooster a comlex by naming him Harriette, after my great aunt.
This little guy wanted his picture taken too!
How could I say no?
This little one wasn't to sure about it though.
But this sweetie was a little more willing to share the limelight.
I think the Easter chick just made a friend!
Wait a minute...is this a chicken hug?
This was a lot of work for these little babies.
(and for me)
So after the photo shoot...we were all ready for a nap!!!
I have to take a blog break for awhile. I am so busy doing garden bed clean up,
and we have started the construction on the backyard studio. The crew has been
here working nonstop for the last three days. I am the lucky one that gets to go up
and down the road to the lumber store whenever the guys need something.
I'm feeling spread little thin right now.
I won't be doing a White Wednesday post this week and maybe next,
but after that I hope to be back on task. I hope to be able to do a little blog hopping
though, but if you don't hear from me, I will be catching up with you all soon.
I want to thank all of you who stop by and read my ramblings, it means so much.
And whether you leave me a message or not, just know how much
I appreciate each and everyone of you!
And if for some reason I haven't come around to thank you for your
dear words, I apologize. I really do try to thank everyone who takes the time to
make me part of their weekly reads.

I want to wish each of you a blessed Easter tomorrow.
I am so grateful to my Lord and Savior for what He did for me...for us.

Oh my ~ those are indeed the most adorable little chicks! And how cute is the last photo of them all being cozy and sleeping. Very cute.
Have a most wonderful Easter!
Your little chick pictures are precious, June. I don't know which one I like best.
I'm going to miss you. Don't work too hard and come back as soon as you can. You're such a welcome friend. Diane
Happy Easter to you and your family.
I've always wanted chicks since I had them as a little girl. I always thought if I had the chance again I would name one Nettie Rennie after my Grandma. don't you think that would have been a good name? Makes me chuckle just thinking about it.
"Here Nettie Rennie Here Nettie Rennie" hehe
Can't wait to see studio pics. if you take progress pics you would have enough for about 20 posts (hint hint)
Now *that* brought a smile...just what I needed this evening after a busy day of preparations...Happy Resurrection Sunday to you...enjoy your project...we'll be waiting to see it:)

Hello June, I hope you have a wonderful Easter with you family. God Bless, sandi
Hi June,
I adore your sweet chicks and this brought back happy memories from when I was a little girl.
Your photos are gorgeous.
Happy Easter to you and your family and enjoy your little break in the garden and good luck with the backyard studio ~ how lucky!
Hugs
Carolyn
Your images are adorable!!!! I want one or two. Hugs for a wonderful Easter!
Oh cute!!! I think you should name one Percival...whether it's male or female:)
I can't wait to see your studio when it's finished!
Oh, June.... these chicks are sooooo cute! I saw the ones on Heather's blog earlier today too. Total cuteness. There is nothing like baby animals (sigh...). Wish they could always stay that way!
Have a wonderful Easter and good luck on the project.
Sharon :-)
The chickies are so so dolce=sweet. June, Happy Easter to you and your family. Miss talking to you, I am back and ready to get to work. I will see you soon in blogland my friend, take care. Rita
I'm loving the little chicks---it makes me want a few even more now! Looking forward to seeing your new studio space. Hope you and your family have a beautiful Easter day!

Okay, this has to be the cutest Easter post I've seen! You took great photos of your chicks. I love the named Harriet for one of them.
Enjoy your little blog break, I hope you get some things done.
Happy, wonderful Easter to you and yours!!!

Gonna make me think twice before I eat at KFC again. ;-)
Have a blessed Easter, sweet friend!
Anne
OH how sweet - i kiss you for all this lovely pictures.....thank you soooo much....it makes my day so much brighter!!!!!!! Happy and blessed Easter for you and all your family - excpecially to your sweet laughing angel!!!!!!!!!

Oh June, Those little chicks are so cute and your pictures are gorgeous! I just love how the chicks look at the yellow one. I think they like him/her. How sweet they all look in your bowl. But wait a minute! What's with that pink Easter bunny in the background? Someone must have given him the wrong address! He was supposed to come over to me ;-)!
Have a wonderful Easter, dear June and good luck for the construction!
Hugs,
Julia
they are soooooo cute - lovely pics :) good luck with the rest of the studio build, I'm sure it'll be worth all the upheaval!! and happy easter :D
Pam
Oh JUne they are gorgeous. Hopefully they don;t grow up too fast. Good luck with all the work that has to be done.Happy Easter sunday
You're right to be a proud chicken momma! They are so darn cute! I think I will never get tired looking at photos of young animals, especially not when it are your photos June, as they are stunning, as ever! Too bad that you'll leave us for a while, though I can perfecty understand of course, but I will miss you. My consolation is of course that if I want to see those beautiful photos of your perfect garden I will have to let you go now. Well, have fun! I told you already, but I don't mind doing it again: happy Easter to you and your family!
Dear June,
this is a most sweet and happy chicken-history! :D
A blessed Easter to you and your family and lots of love,
Marjolijn

HI JUNE, THOSE LITTLE CHICKIES ARE JUST ADORABLE! I THINK ONE OF THEM FELL IN LOVE AND WANTED TO GIVE THE EASTER CHICK A LITTLE PECK! LOL
AND HOW MANY CHICKS GET TO STRUT AROUND ON SOME ONE'S COFFEE TABLE AND NAP IN PINK GRASS! IF THEY'RE LUCKY, AT SWEET JUNE'S HOUSE!
IT SORT OF REMINDS ME OF WHEN I WAS A LITLE GIRL. OUR NEIGHBORS HAD A CHICKEN COOP. USUALLY I THOUGHT IT REALLY FUN TO SCARE THE FEATHERS OFF OF THE CHICKENS BY STEALING THERE GLASS EGGS! ( I WAS SUCH A SWEETIE!) BUT ON EASTER SUNDAY, AFTER CHURCH AND STILL IN MY EASTER DRESS AND BONNET, I ENTERTAINED THE FLOCK BY SINGING SEVERAL RENDITIONS OF "IN MY EASTER BONNET" ACCOMPANIED WITH A LITTLE TAP DANCE! I CAN STILL HEAR ALL THE CLUCKING THAT WENT ON TO SHOW HOW MUCH THEY LOVED MY ROUTINE! (NOW THAT I LOOK BACK THOUGH, THEY WERE PROBABLY REMINDING EACH OTHER NOT TO TRUST THE BRAT IN THE DRESS!)
THANKS FOR THE ADORABLE POST AND KNOW THAT I WILL MISS YOU.
A BLEESED EASTER TO YOU AND YOURS, JUDY
Sweet babies!!! I did see Heather's photos - I think you two have the rest of us thinking about raising chics! :)
Have fun w/ your projects. I was just thinking the other day about the many (MANY!) trips down to the city to buy every nail, board, and wire that we built into our tiny house. But soon you will have your studio - I can't wait to see it and hear about all your lovely plans!
Wishing you and yours a wonderful Easter, June.
:)

Happy Easter! Your photography is exceptional, those little darlings were not easy to work with I am sure, but the results are fantastic!
I am happy that you are enjoying your Spring gardening and the backyard studio sounds sublime. Can't wait to see photos...hugs - Julie
Good Easter Morning June!
How sweet those little chicks are! and such great pictures you got because I can see you trying to keep them together as they scatter in all directions!
Many Easter blessings to you and your wonderful family.
Rebecca
June, We will miss you! I know how it is and you must take care of your tasks around the house so we can see pictures of your wonderful garden and Fleurs!
These chicks are so darling. You should let us all name them! I love the name squeaky for one of them!
Well have a great Easter Day with your family, I can not wait for the music at church this morning!
Kim
Oh June, I am in love with those fluffy little chicks! Wonderful photos! Have a Happy Easter.

This is the best post ever! They are so adorable. Happy Easter!
I agree with my auntie(Dusty Devoe) They are adorable! She wants some chickens herself. I hope you get to enjoy some down time on your break, although it sounds like you will be very busy. Have a Happy Easter and take care!
Oh my goodness, June, those are the sweetest chicks ever! I love everything about them. You all did a wonderful job for the photo shoot!! I am excited for you to be getting your own studio! I know you will enjoy it so much! I am wishing for you and your family a blessed Easter! Love to you! Vicki
Dear June,
Your chicks are adorable. Why is it that anything that's a baby is soooo cute ?
I'm sure that you are pleased that you got them as chicks and not as grown hens, aren't you June ?
Wishing you the most wonderful Easter with your family, filled with love and joy.
I look forward to your return to posting. Don't work too hard. XXXX

This was the sweetest post! I love your little chics.

This was one of the cutest posts I have ever seen. What could be sweeter than Easter Chicks. Except maybe Easter Chicks in a pretty china bowl. Have fun with your garden beds!
Hi June - This is an extremely cute post indeed! Very fuzzy too. Have fun in your garden, catch up with you soon.

Hi June,
Alright that's it! I am now jonsing for some chicky love. Between your post and Heathers I can barely stand it. George has been wanting to get chickens for years and now that I've seen Heathers chicken coop I now want one exactly like it.
LOve your new babies. They're so lucky to have you as their mama!
Don't feel pressure to get back ...I've been a bad blogger too lately!
Happy gardening and hope you had a great Easter!

Hi June,
I'm back Again
I just wanted to thank you for your visit and your lovely comment!
Elizabeth
Sweet friend, you will be missed.
Your little chicks are cute as can be ... but they grow up & PECK people!
Hariette could easily become Hari & Henriette could be Henri ... you are safe to have a wee bit of fun.
Anxious to see the studio when you are done.
I hope that your Easter was beautiful & blessed, June. He lived, gave & died for our sins & souls. How blessed we are for Him.
Have a beautiful week.
TTFN ~ Hugs, Marydon
Goodness those are just the sweetest photos!

Awwww! Your new babies are the sweetest. I love them and have only seen them in pictures. Be sure to show us pictures of them growing up! I am just now making my rounds so I didn't make it by before the holiday. I hope you and your family had a nice Easter.
I am so glad I met you and am always inspired by your blog and who you are as a person. You are truly special! XOXO
P.S. I can't wait to see your garden. I know it will be beautiful!
June, I'm a little late getting over here, but I just have to say that this is one of the sweetest posts I've seen. They grow SO fast. The pic with them napping in the bowl is just priceless. Hope your Easter was wonderful and that you'll be getting a lot accomplished. Have a good break!

Hello June,

Blog: Capers of the vintage vixens
those have to be the cutest pictures! I am sitting here doing Math with my daughter, and we're ooohhing and aaahing over a few of those - chicks are so cute!
Happy Easter time to you June!
June, your chicks are the sweetest little things...what good posers they are too, your pictures are just adorable!!! what a darling post...see you when you get back:)
I love...love...love your chicks...SO PRECIOUS!
Heather soooo inspired me that my husband is working on plans for our own chicken coop! This is even sillier because we live in the middle of the big fat city. I can only have a few...but I don't care...I WANT THEM! I will post pics if we ever get it finished!
I hope you and yours had a wonderful Easter!
Enjoy!
Cathy
Thank you as ever for your lovely comment at mine June and I hope you had a wonderful Easter. Enjoy your blog break even though I know you will be working so hard in the garden and supervising the studio build.
Your little chicks are the most adorable little creatures - such fun photos too.
Enjoy your beautiful garden and see you in a week or two.
Jeanne x
So adorable June!!! Can't wait till I have some of my own one day...sigh...{and hoping Renoir will treat them kindly if we ever do...lol} Blessings to you dear friend!
I absolutely love this blog. They are the cutest little animals I've ever seen. And that little toy one, what a cute thing - and the real one became his friend and gave him a hug. Tears ran down my face. That's called unconditional love!
Made my night, it's 2:30 am.
I'm so happy for you to be back in the dirt and i can't wait to see what your building.
Hugs

Cutes pictures ev-ah.
Brought back a wonderful memory for me. My grandpa used to have chickens, and each spring he'd buy like ---a hundred or more little chicks. He'd put them in the chicken coop under a BIG light which was to help keep them warm.
when we'd go into that chicken coop, we had to be careful to not step on them. I loved picking them up and holding them
I can't believe they were so co-operative for you photos. They must be Diva chicks.
And a rooster named Henrietta would be GREAT.
sounds like you have your hands full. I too find it hard to keep up with blogging lately and visiting everyone as now that the weather is warm... I NEED TO BE OUTSIDE DOING COUNTRY FARM GIRL STUFF.
so...stop by when you get some time.
Love the little chicken ..or should I say peeps. Reminds me of being on the farm and Dad bring s in little peeps that just hatched... Love the pictures Elaine
Oh my gosh they are so cute!!! I love the pictures of them with the little yellow chick-it's all so sweet:). I can't wait to see your new studio!
Blessings,
Kim
Oh June, they are darling!!! I love these pics! I bought 7 babies two months ago... only to lose 5 of them to the neighbor's dog. I was heartbroken (to say the least)... but 6 more come in this week! I totally understand what you're saying about being spread thin! Ditto ditto that!
Oh these are the sweetest pictures!!
Adorable pictures! I took a few of our ducklings and posted them for Easter. Something about baby animals that just makes you feel good. Glad I found your blog! Kim
June,
I have Never seen anything as cute as those chicks in the bowl. Ohg, your the Anne Geddes of baby fowl! I certainly understand your need for a break, I don't know how you do it all June. I'm looking forward to seeing the garden soon! You know how I love it! I hope your baby is feeling better too. I think about you a lot June, your such an inspiration to me. I know it's gotta be overwhelming to see all of these comments every time you post. Don't every worry about not having time to visit me. I know you have a lot on your plate & I'll be here checking up on you! Lisa
PS Can't wait to see the studio too!
Hi June -
Oh that is just too precious. We have new babies at our place too, 8 new adorable calves. I have a little something for you on my blog, stop by and check it out.
Toni
The chickies are soooo cute! What fun to have them around!
Hi June -
I'm a newbie to Idaho, but lovin' it here. I even had the opportunity to meet your lovely daughter, Ember at Rene's "Miss Gracies" Sale. Small world :)
Toni
What incredibly beautiful blog you have! My compliments!
A footprint from Agneta & Sweden
THEIR IN LATON, Yeah, Yeah. With all those grandchildren here, that does mean your coming.
I love to wake up in the morning and find comments on my blog.
OK, be sure and save a day of shopping with me on your first visit. Just a bed of Roses is waiting and Gardner Village and Aunt Elsie's and . . . and . . . and.
Oh, I'm so excited
Have a great day.
Big Hugs

Looking forward to your return, dear June! I understand how things tend to get hectic sometimes and something has got to give!

I hope that you are enjoying your time and that you will share some more of your "ramblings" when you come back!

Hey June Bug!
You are among the living! I thought maybe you were in your garden and we wouln't see you until June... no pun intended. Hope all is well, I saw you had your grandkids and that always is hectic... a nice hectic. I see also Landon was down with something, bless his sweet heart...glad that is over! See I have been keeping tabs on you, ha!
Many Blessings
Rebecca
Oh June! They are so beautiful! How absolutely precious! Thank you for sharing these pictures.

Enjoy the spring planting and be sure to show us the results!
So blessed cute I can't stand it!
