#ChickenBitchez hiding under the deck from the storm.

I am hurriedly putting this post together before we lose power. The winds have been extremely fierce all day and now with the heavy wet snow, it'll be no time until old trees and branches start coming down, and we all know what happens after that...

Got some water bottles ready, our water runs off of an electric pump so when the power goes out...we got no water.

Got the bathtub filled so we have water to flush our toilet with. Living in the boonies has its drawbacks haha, but I wouldn't trade this for city life, not a chance!

Got the buns made for the next couple of days.

I Went Outside and Filmed the Beginning of the Storm

The kids have sure had one messy Spring Break so far...

Looks like a tasty storm blowing in Lyndsay.

Got my fingers crossed for ya babe. ❤️

even though the weather is very cold there must always be warmth under the roof of your house.

may the happiness always be on your family side .. :)

@lyndsaybowes, Be careful with snow storm. I saw video & it seems heavy winds.
Also seems chicken family being safe. Giving some attractive looks but you all suffering. Finally I tell you again be safe.

Thanks for watching the video haha :) Much Love always @madushanka! We are having a great time, the power is still on xoxo We will certainly stay safe no matter what :) I Appreciate your concern!

Is it snowing again? It appears a beautiful sight though.
The buns, they look inviting as always. And please keep safe. I know you are safe ma. Tonnes of love to you too.

Love that colourful water supply, love those buns, love those chickens, and I really love that fog.

Living in the boonies has its drawbacks haha, but I wouldn't trade this for city life, not a chance!

Me too. But work forces me to. City life is a lot of crap and very toxic.
I am happy you are prepared for the storms.
Wow! It is a beautiful storm.

Aw, Edith...I so hope you can get out of the city one day onto a beautiful homestead in the open country...you deserve it Beautiful Soul!! xoxo

Thank you so much sis, you give me strength.

When you mentioned power outage I thought you were talking about the impending electromagnetic storm .. that probably won't come to anything lol But you may get some nice northern lights .. if the storm clears!

Ah you've got the snow back as well!! It looks beautiful .. I'm hoping we may have a bit this weekend and i so I'll try and grab some more pictures :) I love how you've alays got emergency buns to hand .. brilliant!

Oooh I can't wait for more of your awesome shots!!! Yeah electromagnetic fearporn storm haha! One day it may be for realz...c'mon killshot! I'm ready to live in the woods!!

I've been out all morning removing as much of the first wave of snow as possible while the next wave comes down! Nova Scotia needs to stop sending your snow to New Brunswick - we've got enough already (lol). Hope you are warm and power is restored where you are!!

I'm sorry about all the snow, you guys do have it pretty bad there in NB!! We lost internet for 24 hours, but no big deal because the power was on, and I prefer that any day!! xoxo Hope your spring comes SOOON!!

So glad you didn't lose power! I was wondering about you because I didn't see you post. Seems like the snow is still coming but I'm sure mother nature is going to change moods soon!

Uemm the weather looked horrible, chicken also looked scared, be careful @lyndsaybowes <3 ^_^

Yes it is an admitted fact that every life style has some dark sides too but in your case you guys are literally so blessed with the wonderful season. I pray to God for your protection in every walk of life my great friend Lyndsay :)
