Happy First Day of Winter! 

We are enjoying the mild weather after our cold snap over the weekend. 


Exciting things are happening here at the farm! 
Check back soon for the news: 
But in the meantime you will have to wait patiently like this husky.


Grace finished her first semester at the local tech school this past weekend! She did all online classes and for the most part enjoyed it. Now she has a nice long break before the second semester starts. 


A few other pictures from today:

Nate cut us a Christmas tree the other day. but it was too tall- so we cut some off the bottom and Grace fed the leftovers to the goats... they love it!

an overflowing mouth of green goodness.

I took this picture with the intent of getting the layers of snow on the bale. 
 A while back my great uncle told me about "leading lines" in photos- here in this picture the bales make good leading lines. Only one small problem... they don't lead your eyes to anything in particular. I should of had a person or object standing part way down or at the end of the bales... Oh well, for now just enjoy the snowy bales,.. maybe someday I'll try again. 


Don't bite off more than you can chew.


Some people groan when the camera shows up- but not this one- she even posed for me in the early morning light. :)

A Spring Get-Away

We had a great trip this past weekend. Our family was able to get away for a few days before everything gets really busy on the farm. We headed south to the state of Missouri, and it was really fun to see tall green grass and trees fully leafed out, but then hard to come home to cooler weather, bare trees and brown. But spring is on it's way here too, right? (As I write this, it's cold outside and it's snowing- Can I go back to MO?) Enjoy some snapshots of the trip. The Laura Ingalls Wilder cabin near Pepin WI. I've always enjoyed her books and it was interesting to see just how small the "little house in the big woods" was. Only now it's surrounded by fields and cleared land. Not very big is it?! We made a stop at Bass Pro Shop near Des Moines (a city that was incorrectly pronounced for fun the entire trip). This was probably Silas' favorite part of the trip. He loved it and could have spent hours there.... however some of us were ready to ...

Montana 2024

   For our family trip this year we went to Montana! We took lots of pictures and I am finally getting some shared with you. Enjoy! On the way out, we stopped to see the North Dakota badlands in Teddy Roosevelt National Park.     The first night we camped at a campground on the East edge of Glacier National Park. The next day, we made our way through the park. Then we crossed the 560' Hungry Horse Dam and camped on the reservoir. The next day we went for a hike. Huckleberries!! The mountainside was covered in huckleberries and we had a lot of fun picking some to bring home. We went back to the East side of the mountains to camp that night, then hiked part way up the mountain the next morning before heading for home.
