Busy, Busy, Busy

We made it through the tornado that went through here! We just got some thunderstorms and a little bit of hail!

My sisters Rebekah and Lydia tilled a big place for corn, so today we put manure in the rows and planted 5 rows of corn and a couple rows of sunflower seeds! I can't wait until we have fresh corn on the cob!

On Tuesday I went to the dentist and I got braces and expanders put in so now I am getting used to what I can and can't eat! I need them in for 2 years!

Yesterday Mom, Susanna, Eliana and I went to our Aunt's house and did some sewing for Susanna and Eliana! It was very nice!

Family Life

On Thursday we Grandpa and Grandma came for a visit! Grandma took Eliana, Susanna, Lydia and I to a fabric store in town. She needed to get some fabric for a quilt. So while we were there she bought us a apron pattern and each of us some fabrics so we could make the aprons! I already sewed my apron! It came out really nice!

Our beef cow is getting bigger! Pretty soon we are going to put him out on pasture!

We have at least two female ducks! One of the ducks is a female Mallard, one is a female blue swedish and the other two are black swedish ducks! So we finally figured out the breeds and the sex of two of the ducks! We are not sure of the other two.

Guess what we got....

a German Shepherd puppy! We named him Ezekial and his nickname is Zeke! He is 13 weeks old and has the largest paws!

On other news....the chicken tractor got finished yesterday!! So today we put the bigger set of chicks in the house part! Tomorrow we are going to put the ducks and smaller chicks in it! They are liking their new home!

I would post some pictures but the internet service we use doesn't allow me to post pictures :(

On Sunday April 24th we got a beef calf! As of today he is 11 days old so we have been bottle feeding him! We named him Obadiah Job! We are going to try and halter break him!!

We have been busy with.....

getting ready to get a beef calf. We have some friends that have a dairy that we are going to get a calf from soon! We have a shed and one part of the shed is like a lean to so we put up fencing around it so that is where we are going to keep the calf while we are bottle feeding it. When it gets weaned off the bottle then we are going to get some electric netting for animals and we are going to put the cow in there to graze.

Also, our landlord bought 9 more Rhode Island Red chicks and they are so cute and fluffy! We have them in with our bigger chicks. Sometime soon we are going to start on the chicken tractors, because the ducks have pretty much outgrown the brooder!

Sorry that there is still no pictures. My sister Rebekah is the photographer and she is the one that downloads the pictures into the computer and she hasn't had time to. But someday I will be posting pics!
