The rain here got a little out of control Friday and Saturday. It made lambing a very stressfull experience. I pulled my first lamb (at Dad’s) on Friday, Mom pulled one on Sunday, and fortunately everyone is doing well. Our chickens are laying eggs like crazy, our rooster is hatefull as ever, and our sheep and llama have been let out for grass on the east side of our house (formally our yard, but soon to be a part of the permanent pasture). Gotta get to work! Happy Monday!
Too Much Rain…

I am a wife to my wonderful husband and the mama to two beautiful girls adopted from China. We are striving for a simple life. We want to be able to provide ourselves with most of the items we need to survive; only buying things when absolutely necessary. We now strive to provide a portion of our family's food through organic gardening. I cook from scratch, live a fairly frugal lifestyle, and make my own non-toxic cleaning products. Please join us as we stumble toward a more self-sufficient and frugal life together. View all posts by Gretchen
