My kind of living! I am glad I found you and intend to visit often. The boys are doing a great job, I know how heavy that hay can be!~Jacque p.s. I just love goats!

You certainly have your garden underway. The lads working so hard remind me of Parker when we first moved on the farm. He worked so hard and so willing for a 12 year old. Haying was so hard!

You nature sounds always get my cats looking around. And when the water starts I invariably have to make a trip to the bathroom.

Great photos of a family working together on a gorgeous day!

BTW, my cat adores this nature sounds soundtrack with the birds. He gets all up in the computer trying to get the birdies.

Peggy, Your garden looks great and I love the pictures of the boys stacking the hay.

Hope all else is going good at your house.

Great looking garden! Very industrious helping hands there!

Nice garden and nice hay! I really want a garden cart like that.

Is that really green things growing in a garden? We have brown left over weeds not growing in ours. Alex has been drooling over tillers at every store that she sees them. It is getting difficult to pull her her away. Also, can we borrow those boys? We have so much work to do and not enough hands.

Well I thought you and william had turned into child laborers and then I saw the one pic of their faces not only smiling but with determination showing too. I don't know what is going on with williams truck but I figured it couldn't be that you are keeping him around so much just cause he's cute. I hope things work out soon.

All these pictures are simply wonderful. Thanks for sharing a day on your farm.
PS: I'm still enjoying the soaps! They smell so lovely. I'm going to have to order more for Christmas gifts. They'd be perfect for that. :o)

Did you see the story on the news about the goat and the dog walking the streets in Virginia lost. They were buddies. Some one has adopted both of them, isn't that sweet. Looks like you guys have some real strong helpers:)
