So SweePea had her babies yesterday. Scott and I were there for the whole thing, helping. Scott was the Midwife. I was the Assistant to the Midwife.

Nature Hike with 3rd Graders
Our hike through Poison Ivy wasn't nearly as scary as I'd imagined.

She's the cutest, sweetest, … Continue reading You Got Something in your Pocket?
Look at the Size of that Egg!
In summertime, we will once again have eggs for sale. Our Chickens are not producing a lot of eggs this time of year. This just cracks me up.
Out Walking the Field with the Animals
Our animals are so happy. Scott takes such good care of them. He takes them for walks every day.
