Animals, Around the Homestead

Just a quick post…

Gretchen

I haven’t posted in awhile, so I thought I would real quick. 

Here are some pictures of my Dad’s Icelandic sheep’s babies.  They are the cutest little things!

And of course, what would a post be with out the cats involved.  They just happen to be the most photogenic critters on our farm.

This weekend we will be selling our two bottle lambs.  Yea!  We are also hoping to possibly burn our pile of limbs leftover from the ice storm and mow around our pasture so we can get it burned off soon.  Oh, did I mention build more lots and fence in the garden to keep the chickens out so I can plant seeds?  We’re going to need a long weekend :  )

Have a wonderful day!

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.
