We had a very busy weekend.  It was my husband's birthday, we won't say what number. Ha!  We also celebrated our only granddaughter's 3rd birthday and Sunday was Father's Day.  We had family and friends over for a taco bar/buffet prepared by my oldest daughter.  Yummy food and fun company!

On Saturday I also got our new Delaware chicks, 11 poults and a rooster.  They are all so tiny and cute compared to the turkeys.  The turkeys are getting quite big.  One of them has a huge red waddle (chin skin)compared to the others so I'm assuming it is a tom.  He is displaying already, strutting his stuff.  


We have two swallow's nests over the patio this year.  One of them has 3 or 4 big babies in it.  The other has smaller, younger babies who don't poke their heads out far enough to take a picture yet.


Our weather has been hotter than blue blazes but perfect for swimming.  The water feels great after working in the yard, hanging out laundry and feeding the animals.  The wind continues to blast us all day long with nary a break.  I suppose that is the price one must pay to live in desert.
