Putting on a Show

Faces, sneaky faces who drink his sisters creamer and make mommy think it is milk. You know because if it was white and in a cup mommy would think it was our raw goats milk. 
Sometimes he thinks if he puts glasses on we will not notice he is doing something sneaky. 

Being this cute is hard work. So sometimes when you are strapped into a car seat and you have no way to get attention then you just rest and get ready for your next show.

New Soaps

Farmers market starts in one month. So we have been working on new soaps.  I cannot wait to share them with you. 
We have some wonderful new flavors. Things like sherbet and Forever Red and Amazing Grace. Oh wait, I forgot to tell you about monkey farts and patchouli.

It is time to move them into my soap room but I just can't bring myself to take them downstairs when they smell so amazing.

My Smile

I normally do not post pictures of myself since I gained all my weight back. I don't like my teeth or my skin or my weight. 
But you know what I do like. I love my children's smile.  And I want them to have pictures with me. 

I want to show them pictures of how they held my arm to fall asleep. 

So for today I will not look at the roll off at or the not so perfect smile. I will look at her smile, I will look at how content he is in my arms.

Handstands are Dangerous

A couple of weeks ago I took Grace for a pedicure. She loved it and I will probably never get a pedicure alone again. 
Sadly just a couple of days later she was doing handstands in the basement when she fell and cracked a bone in her foot. 


We are so grateful that she is not in a cast. She is healing and finding fun ways to keep her leg elevated.

Raised Bed Gardens

Good morning! I cannot believe if is almost summer. The weather is warming up and and I can see sunshine. 
We have been busy doing some fun improvements around our little farm. We decided to scale back our garden. I know that sounds crazy but for the last two years we were big able to keep up with our big garden. 
This year we are trying our hands at raised bed gardening. It actually was pretty easy considering we have plenty of compost from the goats. 
I am excited to have less to weed this year. We built the boxes and filled them half with compost then topped with top soil. We also did our tomatoes in five gallon buckets.  This year is about keeping it simple. I am telling myself I can buy anything else I need from the farmers market.
