A peek into our spring...

Wow, I have not been a very good blogger lately! Life has been so busy that blogging had to be put on the back burner. This post will sorta catch you up on what has been happening around here! We are all finishing up home school for the year, and Matthew and Maddy are doing testing. I am so looking forward to summer break!:)


Because my days are very busy, I am tyring to heed the wisdom of Benjamin Franklin (read comments below), "Early to bed early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise":) I try to go to bed between 9:30 and 10:00 pm and get up at 5:30 am. My goal is to get as much school as I can done before I go milk and feed the animals at 7:30. These pictures were taken a few days ago.

A busy younger sister...

This photograph does not come close to showing how truly massive our fig trees are!:)

Scuppernong vines...

Our pear tree...

Blueberries!

Watering...

The beautiful sunshine!

A little man...

The garden boxes. The garden is my domain, and I am loving it!

My herb plants~

I refer to my tomatoes as "the girls"... Don't ask me why:)

Sweetness~

Only here in Pecan Patures does a horse come up to your kitchen windows and ask for treats!

My dairy goat Rosey... I have had so much fun having a milk goat!

Daisy and our new baby buck( that is nameless! Have a name idea for this little guy?)

This past Sunday was an especially busy one for us! After the service, fellowship meal and a baby blessing we loaded up and went to pick up a baby buck. We are going to sell Daisy and our current buck at an auction sometime soon. We are all a little sad to see Daisy go, but she has double teats and I would rather find another good milker. Here are some pictures from our morning. We travel over an hour to our church, so Sundays are very busy for us!

Getting ready to load up in the van...

Silly M.E.~

My lovable and so very comical father~

My beautiful Mama~ (wanting me to stop taking her picture:)

I hope to do my next "sibling" post soon. Until then...
