What a way to start the summer Even though all of our kids have been sold for the year, we have had many projects going on around the farm including fencing, haying the fields, putting in the garden, etc. We’ve recently purchased some butcher lambs and will soon be adding a couple beef [...]

Hints of Spring

I love this weather! I’m beginning to find it very hard to stay inside doing paperwork vs. being outside to play with the puppies, goats, and horses.
Our spring garden has been started inside and has been doing well. I’m still debating between raised beds vs scooping dirt in the ground and putting mesh [...]

I’m going to start this blog off with our chicken conquest. I have weakened when it comes to not letting the chickens out of their coop. lol. They do get into quite a bit, but it also cuts down on the amount of chicken feed and they eat bugs! I’m also convinced they lay more [...]
After the storm

Well the rain has finally come! We’ve gotten a good couple inches in the past few days, the creek has began to flow again and our hay is growing once again! YAY! If you’re a repeat reader to our blog, you’ve most likely discovered I’m not a fan of the cold/wet weather by any means [...]

I’m quite excited to report that we brought home our new pony yesterday afternoon after a long 2 week wait to be approved by the adoption agency. It was a long drive but we finally got her home before dark. She is a pudgy little thing and is very food driven but is independent and [...]
New Place/New Winter

As you know, we have moved across town, hence bringing many changes for us, the property, animals, and the WEATHER! I do love our new location, especially the beautiful view we have of the mountain, being on the other side of the highway- closer to town, etc. My two LARGEST dislikes here, however, are the [...]

Phew! Well we finally got the rest of the hay planted yesterday to our relief. And of course it looked like it was going to rain all day yesterday then FROZE last night. Now all we have to do it wait. I have to say I do love the farming aspect of it but definitely [...]

What a week! To make a long story short, we’re finally engaged (after 5+ years)!! Exciting! We’re also in the process of purchasing 16 acres and moving ourselves and all the goats/horses/dogs/stuff across town. In the mean time, we’re completely remodeling the house, having a huge estate sale Oct 8th on through the 19th, getting [...]

Im posting a little late on the National Show but we’re finally slowing down here. Still working on getting the MKDGA show set up and ready to go but it’s been going smoothly.

Oh what a weekend! We enjoyed seeing everyone who was at the show this weekend. Is always nice to catch up and visit with our “goat family”. Friday, driving through Sac, it was about 105. I thought the girls in the trailer may keel over. Once we got to Placerville, it cooled off a bit. [...]
