Wow, i actually forgot i had this blog, it has been quite a while since i wrote anything.

We have moved into the house and have moved my dogs and kitties in. We now have a new cat and my grandfather's dog (she is hypothyroid and now has a torn ligament and he can't take care of her). Tomorrow she is having surgery to fix her knee, so hopefully all goes well. We are still working on prepping the gardens around the house. We were able to get some harvest this past summer in our raised beds, but have a few more kinks to work out. Our tomatoes didn't produce hardly where they were, so we might have to modify or improve that ground. We are putting in all the perennials and fruit trees/shrubs. So far we have apple, peach, blueberry, and i think a plum tree and are working on finding some more heritage breeds to bring in.

It will probably be another year before we get chickens and the coop ready (first things first, have to finish building the cabinets in the house before we get too carried away outside.)

Everything has worked out wonderfully. Even the things that didn't go so well have taught us all something. God always provides, we just have to accept what he is giving, even if it wasn't the way we planned it.

Hello!

Hi! I started this blog because i found this really cool group of people, the Christian Agrarians, and i was like, "Hey, people like me!!!!" which is very exciting. You never meet people like that, at least not in my world, so i decided i must write a blog and join them. how exciting.
I live in GA, in a very small "town" and i work at a "miniature farm petting zoo". that is the animals on the farm are mostly all miniature, not the farm itself being miniature. It is a lot of fun. Right now we are geared up for goat season. We have had 7 babies in 2 days from 3 goats, and we have 14 more goats left to birth. That is a lot of babies. I don't know why they choose the coldest days to birth, but it makes it a lot less fun for me. Then at home i have my menagerie(2horses, 3German Shepherds, a Chocolate Lab, and 7 cats). And that is all with us living here without a house. Hopefully we will have the house by the end of the year, because it finally seems to be working for us, but we are still praying it doesn't get delayed anymore. It has already been 20 years since we bought the land and started working at getting a house, that is a long time to wait. What a lesson in patients God is giving us. But we have gotten a lot from trying to work on it, we have learned a lot and done a lot as a family because we haven't had it, so i guess it is good. But, we are still hoping and praying that it finally does happen.
