Oh and I almost forget. We opened up all those melons and pumpkins and they all looked and smelled just fine. They just looked a little weird to me on the outside. The goats and chickens sure didn't complain! :lol:

Oh I agree 100%! I guess I didn't even think about that part of it being negotiable :lol: , we just always have a group of people around that don't mind helping. Otherwise it'd be a whole different story!

Hey! Things are going pretty good! Splitting lots of wood...and trying to get a long list of chores done before winter hits, half of which probably won't get done. But what's new? :lol: Although we did find out that we'll be working on our most recent growing project this winter..it should be...

:love Yay for full moons.

I picked up a book called "Free Range Kids-How To Raise Safe, Self-Relient Children (Without Going Nuts with Worry)" by Lenore Skenazy I have to admit it was the title that first got me, anything that compares a kid to a chicken (or any other barnyard animal) is right up my alley. :lol: ...and...

Love the pics!

Congrats!!!! After all the stress of finding a home it's nice to just enjoy it for awhile! There's nothing like that first night in your very own home!
