Springtime Bustle

Published by under Being Family,Food & Farming

I don’t have much time to write, but didn’t want to leave you hanging! Things are moving right along around here. We got the call at 5:45 am the other day. From the Post Office. We rushed out the door 45 minutes early… …To collect our much anticipated box! These will be new layers for [...]

Wildlife Weekend

Published by under Being Family

I don’t know about you, but we had a drippy, return-to-November weekend around here. Yuck! Nothing Spring-ish or sun-shiny and bright, oh now. We had cold, drizzly, gloom. Luckily we had company this weekend to join us for family movie night and help run through some weekend chores. Saturday I got to talk crafting with [...]

Shadow Boxing

Published by under Being Family,Food & Farming

I posted yesterday about how Speedracer seems to spend an awful lot of time watching everyone else working and how I should probably start working on this loafing mentality of his. So we decided to start giving him some bigger chores–some stuff we thought he could start doing independently–not just “go help your sister.” The [...]

Why in the World…

Published by under Food & Farming

So I wrote last week about the way our animal tagging system practically requires calculus to figure out! And the natural question is why in the world go through all that instead of just giving them names?!! Well, the fact is that we’re not just running these animals for meat and wool. We’re working with [...]

Stay Home Days

Published by under Being Family

Around here “stay home days” can get pretty busy pretty fast. This weekend we covered a lot of ground. Literally. We got our strawberries and broccoli planted, weeded the flower beds, and dug our baby asparagus plants out from under a season’s worth of dried up wire grass. We checked up on everything we’ve got [...]

Number 27, now known as #5 (and formerly know as #11)…

Published by under Being Family,Food & Farming

…gave birth to #5A and #5B, who are also known as #6 and #7… …Following me? I’m guessing not. Our kiddos are definitely confused.
