A Homestead Daughter

The Animal Graveyard
In every homestead that we have lived on, there was always an 'animal graveyard'. This is a place where we lay our little animal friends to rest. It's usually remote enough that tears can be shed and prayers said in privet. Mostly kittens, chicks and other baby animals are respectfully laid here, but sometimes adult animals and old friends are also laid to rest here. Our first cat, Milly, was very sadly laid here.
There are nine 'gravestones' between these two left and right pictures of our little cemetery. Can you spy them all?

About Me
I'm a 17 yr. old girl who lives on and loves her 50 acre homestead in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I love all the animals that we own and appreciate their different and unique personalities. My days are spent working on the land with my family of 10 (#11 growing daily!). By working, playing and praying together we have become a very close knit family. There is always something going on, from the silliest stories to the most interesting homesteading processes and projects. I love living the way we do, I find peace in our fields, woods, creeks, animals, siblings and sunshine. I love having my family all together, we home-school and my dad is home working our homestead with us. Jesus is blessing us in our decision to do this, and while this lifestyle is not without it's thorns, He is always providing. I hope you enjoy your visit here, and may God bless you with the peace that homesteading brings.
