Cheep cheep!

Can't quite call yourself a country girl until you've gathered up eggs, right? Well, we got to do just that!

Mary, Ella, Reese, and I headed to our neighbor's place to "help" her gather eggs and love on the baby chicks. Oh, we did just that!

However, catching the little buggers seemed to be a bit of a challenge. Ella loved chasing them, but eventually needed help to actually snatch one.

Here's our neighbor Kate, helping Ella gather the eggs. Thankfully we didn't break any, but there were a couple of really close calls :)

Our final job? Let the chickens run wild! Thanks for the really fun afternoon, Kate!
