From Town to Country: A Wife's Tale

• Friday, October 31, 2008 - Happy Halloween!

Posted in Babies

We were going to butcher rabbits today but Rich decided to retrive the round bales from the field instead.  he was so excited yesterday when Farmer Mike finished making the fork for the tractor.  And he had quite the grin on his face as he brought up each bale from the field.  We have a total of 32 bales and Rich brought 17 of them up to the yard today.  One more day and that task will be complete.

Our 3 ducklings are doing great.  One already tried going for a swim.  Here's a picture of them:

New Ducklings

They have a stuffed bunny toy to snuggle with and they do.  Oh it is really cute!

Well, I'm off to pick Madison up from her causin's house.  She went trick or treating with my sister's family.  Good Night!

About Me

We've been working on the family farm for 3 years trying to get it back to a working farm. The farm was neglected for 15+ years before we took it on. The summer of 2008 is our family's first experience living in the country, so began our journey from town to country...
