Duckling with Daughter


This is one of our ducklings with our daughter. It became cold outside and we had to bring the babies in where it is warm and cozy. They were living in an outdoor enclosure and now they are living in our shed. They have a warm bed and a heated room. We took the ducklings from their mother and let Momma Duck rejoin the other adult ducks. Momma Duck was angry about us scooping up her babies, but is happy to be back in the pond. She is back to her care-free duck life.


FYI....Baby ducks have to be kept very warm and dry until they have their adult feathers. If they are sent outside with cooler temperatures and baby feathers they will not survive.


Have a wonderful weekend!!!!

Goodbye to a Great Summer!

What a great summer we had. There is nothing like late nights looking at the stars, swimming, Fourth of July, and summer vacations. This photo was taken of me during a weekend trip to Six Flags.
Now, it's time to welcome Fall. It's time to pick out pumkins and gourds. It's also time to pull out sweaters and jeans. Raking leaves, cool nights, and comfort foods are favorites of mine.
Be Blessed as this new season begins!!!!

Two New Recipe Boxes




Check out my two new recipe boxes. One is orange and black and the other is red and black. They have been distressed and aged. Both are original and have an artistic flair. I can use any color paint you choose. I think they have a primitive look too.





Sad News

I have sad news....two of the baby ducks died this morning. We are thinking that mom duck decided her brood was too big yet again - she killed a ducking about one week ago. We brought the remaining five into the house and they are getting settled. I hope to have photos of the five babies posted soon.

I also have two great items from the Little Blue House to post - I will do that next.

Be Blessed!

Two Ducks

I am a wife and mother - I love all that comes with family. I am also an animal nut. I would like to introduce you to Little Looker and Clean Duck. We have kept water birds for almost three years and I have found that they are all fascinating. We currently have ducklings and we are hoping that they will "feather" before the cold weather gets here. I hope to post some photos of the babies soon! Be Blessed! Kelly

My First Day as a Blogger

I am so excited to actually be a blogger. I will be blogging about one of my favorite things - the Little Blue House. Blue House is my small business that allows me to express myself in a creative way. I love painting, sanding, and searching for great "new" vintage items. Check out my great fall-time basket at http://thelittlebluehouse.etsy.com

Also, go to ebay and look for my Melissa and Doug items under the name littlebluehousetoys.

I also have to add some personal views about America and the events around us....

To the people who are traveling to Washing DC for the 9-12 march - thank you for taking this moment to speak for so many of us. Be Blessed!!!!!
