Been A While and Changes :(

So last time I posted, I said that the tractor was running and we were all set....NOPE!! We still don't have  a working tractor. It has been a real source of anger and frustration. So we have had to change our plans on what we are doing and it isn't the greatest right now. I'm trying to just remember that it is all a learning experience and it will all work out in the end.

The good news is we have more milk that we can use!! Suzi is an AWESOME cow!! I have a bunch of pictures I took to show you of milking and everything we do after...including making butter. That however, will have to wait for another time because I am exhausted today.

We have been getting fences built--we need to get our pigs out of the barn. We have our chickens separated into 2 coops. They are so much happier and the ducks are a riot!!

The goat and Sweetheart (Great Pyrenees) are great friends and are now in a stall/pen together. The calf joins them during the day and then goes back with Mama at night.

Suzi can finally get outside and graze on grass and she loves it and so do we!

We do have a bunch of plants in the ground--that Katie and I have done by hand--really big garden and we have more to do.

So those are my thoughts for today--not very put together--as I said I'm worn out. I just wanted to give an update and let you know that I have not disappeared.
