Just Posting…
It has been awhile since we put out a video. We really would like to make more of them to document the types of things we are working on but usually we are too tired. 🙂 Anyway, enjoy!

I went to town all by myself yesterday. As any mother of young children knows, this was no small moment for me. Rarely do I walk outside, work in the garden, or even go to the bathroom by myself. (Is that TMI? I grew up with two brothers and have four small children; I’m afraid…
The canner has been running nearly every single day; often twice per day. The tomatoes are getting tall, the cucumber salads daily, and the pickles are fermenting by the gallon. Oh, and we have a potential watermelon farmer on our hands who also happens to be smitten by this baby sister of his. See you…
I was reminded these past two weeks of how little margin there are in our days. Everyone but Stewart came down with a cold or flu or something that had us slightly feverish and sniffling and coughing. It all started two Sundays ago and still, it lingers. But cows still need to be milked and…
I know I always said I’d miss the pitter-patter of little feet someday, but I never knew how bitter sweet that was until I sipped that cup down just a little more. Those pudgy little hands that used to hold mine now milk cows and lift more feed bags than I dare and fly through…
I sit down, laptop in hand, breakfast by my side. Stewart is manning the children, breakfast, and the morning school activities and I am in a quiet room with enough coffee to float me down a river. I guess that’s what it takes to bang out some photo editing and key strokes these days. But…
Lately I have been feeling a bit of a general time crunch that has coincided with a conviction that I need to be more deliberate in ordering my days. I’m very type B and have no natural proclivity for organization, scheduling, or deadlines. So, homeschooling and caring for four young children with weekly freelance deadlines…

That was beautiful. Your children are so into living on the land, its wonderful to see the boys building, measuring and working so hard and the little ladies are just too cute. Bless your gorgeous family. xxx
So beautiful!! Amazing that your young sons already know how to mix cement and “plant” fence posts! So much more useful than knowing how to play video games as most kids do. Bless you guys!!
Love the video! Thank you for sharing.
It may or may not be helpful, but every wooden fence post installed on our four acres was done a bit differently… The holes were dug then the post placed exactly as it was to stand. I held the post as my husband poured dry cement mix into the hole and tamped it down to pack it around the post. Moisture from the surrounding ground usually set the cement overnight. They are still tight and standing strong after 22 years.
