country living

We finished up first cutting of today!!  Got the pile all covered and then spent the evening with the girls.  The older two went into band tonight.  They have another concert coming up the end of the month that they are getting ready for.
Here are a few pictures from this evening!

Wool Soakers

I have been spending my free time doing a little sewing!  I have been working on diaper covers and wool soakers for our little Edi!  They have sure been fun to make!  Here are a few picture of a few of them!  I love how they work!!


Around the farm!

I went out for a walk tonight and took a few pictures of the girls doing chores.  I thought I would share some of them with you!
Elli wishing she could take the mule for a spin......  sorry hun!


Cassi taking grain out to feed the goats.

Looks like someone is sleeping on the job.  Glad we make sure the cows have a nice dry place to sleep!

Working Hard...

This morning was spent putting some baled hay up into the hay mow.  Thought you might like to see a few pictures!
Elli wanted you to see how tall everything is!
She really wanted to be part of "working"
Even if it was WAY to heavy to lift....
M~M and Cassi got to be on the wagon handing the bales down to their dad.
Dad then puts the bales on the convayer that takes them up to the mow.
once in the mow we have 2 guys up there stacking the hay!  I would have taken pictures of that, BUT I had the baby in the front pack.  It is WAY to hard climbing the ladder to the mow with a baby on front of you! 
We have a lot more hay to put up to feed the baby calves and horses all winter.  But for now we have a good start!
