It's been a long beginning of the year. Things are finally starting to become normal again....or at least my sense of normal. There has been so much happening.
We've added 3 mini rex rabbits to our farm family...hopefully 2 of them are pregnant. Our doe Bonnie had a litter unexpectedly...I'm hoping that they survive. We are also trying to get our Jersey Wooly bred. Hopefully by May we will be having a lot of baby bunnies around here.
We've also added a baby goat...his name is Casper..the friendly goat. I would love to find him a friend.
We have turkeys and chickens coming in at the beginning of next week...so spring has definitely sprung here at the farm.
Speaking of spring there is nothing like a ton of snow melting and pooling all around the house. We spent the evening digging trenches to send it away from the house. Hopefully we will stop it from making it in.
My girls and I have started seedlings in 20 oz drink bottles and lined the windows with them. We have our own mini greenhouses all around the dining room. I'm looking forward to the snow melting off and being able to be outside.
I am always glad to read your posts, it sounds as if spring is in the air and hopefully winter will finish up soon!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all of the new critters, such a lovely addition.
I can really relate to what a long winter it has been. Not just the season on the calendar, but the season of life too.
