Babies!!!!







     Well, Winter is finally over, Spring is halfway through, and Summer is right around the corner. That means, baby animals, and lots of them. A countless amount of bunnies have been born in the last few months. I honestly haven't the slightest idea of how many we have. They're being sold almost as soon as they take their first breath. Just two weeks ago, our first lambs were born. 75% Babydoll Southdown. They're faces make them look like they're smiling. But, Boy! are they fast.  When they get loose, your only hope of catching them is to corner them.

     We have our gardens going now. We've planted, peas, beets, salad-mix, dill, lemon-balm, blueberries, and a lot more. We've also planted several fruit trees, including cherries, peaches, plums, and pears. Our bees are in full swing, going from flower to flower.

    They year seems to be going by so fast. Before we know it, we'll be underneath 3 feet of snow again. Ugh, I don't even want to think about it.

Summer almost over.








Well it's August now. Sorry i haven't posted in a few months. Summer is already almost over. We have been selling milk and eggs, and veggies. (by the way anyone need any beets?)


we've spun a bunch of honey already, and it gets sold almost before its spun. we have 3 gardens right now. we had 4 but the corn garden didn't do anything.




fall is coming up soon. we're going to need to stack wood, and get hay. Before we know it, it'll be 20 degrees out, and we'll all be right next to the wood stove. And there will also be a new baby in the house.




well enjoy the rest of the summmer.




God bless you,

Warm Weather

It's now April. There is no snow left on the ground. The weather's been kind of crazy. This Saturday it's supposed to be near 80 degrees. Of course it's been raining quite a bit, but that's better than snow. Easter is coming up on Sunday. We were all sick for 3 weeks, and it just ended last week. We are planning on building a barn this spring.
Hope you all enjoy the spring weather.

God bless you,

spring

well its March now. The snow is melting. Spring is in a little over two weeks. Our chickens have started laying again. They didn't lay so much before because it was so cold. I just found out today that some of the chickens have been eating their eggs. so now we have to check for eggs more often. Blossom the baby cow is getting bigger. She lets us go up to her, and pet her.

God bless you,

Cows will be cows

We had to build our baby cow Blossom her own pen. She was in a pen with her mother, but she kept escaping. And let me tell you, it's not easy chasing a cow around the yard. We built her a little pen in the shed. Blossom didn't seem to mind, but her mother Abigail really doesn't like being seperated from her baby.

We now have to milk Abigail twice a day. Once in the morning, and once at night. It's finally starting to get warm out. The snow is starting to melt. There is a lot of grass. 4 year old Isaiah can't wait to mow the lawn. We are all looking forward to starting the gardens. Won't be long now.

God bless you
