Fun around the farm
"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." Thessalonians 5:16-18
The Red Barn
Ever since I was a little girl I've always wanted a red barn. I remember going on road trips with my family and calling every red barn as mine. Now, all I have to do is walk out toward the back of our property and look at Our Red Barn.

The Milk Room
We could have just done a spot in the barn for milking, however, we thought it was best to keep it as 2 different spaces for cleanliness. BTW I LOVE our milk room. We have 3 different types of milk stands to accommodate our goats and their spoiled needs. We also have 2 different milk machines by Simple Pulse. The first one we purchased several years ago and is a single milker. This year we purchased a double milker. Making life so much easier milking 3 at a time.

The herds 2.5 acres. We have 5 acres in the back that was not fenced in. We divided that in half giving the girls a newly fenced in area that they love. The remaining 2.5 acres will be divided for the Bucks and Sheep.
The Human Farm Creatures (Without a doubt there will be livestock in the Human photos)
Our children put in 110% every day. They are out with us during the night doing barn checks on the close to kidding does, milking, bottle feeding, filling waters and mucking stalls. They are pretty amazing young ladies with a wealth of knowledge already at such a young age.
