It’s times like these that I hate plants. You give all plants a bad name!

The Biggest Surprises of Owning Your Own Farm
I’ve been living on at my farm for a while now. I lived on my parents farm as a teenager so I didn’t have the same anxiety when I first moved here that many people did (how will I keep my horse alive?!). However, there’s some things that popped up that surprised me. It’s things […]
6 Month Old Baby
She’s become so big now! She weighs so much, and she seems to take up my entire torso when I carry her around. Man, they get big fast! So, here’s what she’s up to as a 6 month old: She practices her vocals a lot. Screeching is her current favorite. Sometimes it’s one startling screech […]
It’s Time to Train Stu
It’s important to train at the right moment, or you’ll mess everything up!
The Rise of the Equestrian Base Layer and Legging

Weekly Round-Up | Sept 6, 2019
Did I ever mention I love wild turkeys? Not to eat or to hunt, but just to look at. I did not have any affection for turkeys before I moved out here, but now ever time I see them I stop dead to stare at them. Seeing them is like seeing a beautiful sunrise on […]
Baby Goes to the Barn
This is the most exciting development since baby was born – I can now bring her down to the barn! I finally put up some fencing to make a little area where Bridgette can sit in her stroller and be safe from the horses. It’s not complete yet, as it turns out it is harder […]
