I have enjoyed nearly every aspect of my new house. It’s in a great location, there are some amazing neighbors, however they are not too close, and there is plenty of grass for my little lambs to eat. Despite not being finished, I love the house itself. There is one thing, however, that I vehemently […]
There is little progress to report on the home front. It has been a busy summer, so the house has taken a back seat. After spending so much time the past two years, it has been nice to do some other things. This past week also marked the one year anniversary of my Dad’s brain […]
It has been just over three weeks since I got my two little lambs, Maggie and Molly. After having them about a week, my Dad thought that a pair of little white lambs would be a great addition. So, I was on the lookout for a pair of little white Katahdin ewe lambs. I mentioned […]
I have been living in my new house for close to five months now, and I’m loving every second of it. There are still many things that need completing, but just being here this spring has been such a blessing. It is a gorgeous place to be in the spring. There were times that mud […]
I’ve had really high expectations for the loft. It has taken a long time, but we are finally closing in on finishing the loft.

Progress continues at a steady pace on the house. We have gotten to the point where there are only a few big projects left, but lots of little cosmetic items to keep plugging away at. As long as we have worked on this house, it still sometimes seems surreal that we are at this point. […]
It has been a monumental weekend at the homestead, and one I won’t soon forget. However, I’ll start with a story from Thursday night. It was warm and raining on Thursday, and I had a few early mornings at work so I went to bed early. I was awakened to the loudest noise that I […]
The last two weeks have been filled with trying to settle into my new home. I’ve been living here for almost two weeks at this point, and sometimes it still seems surreal. As you may remember, I decided to go with a heat pump as my main source of heat. I had solicited a lot […]
I was determined that I was going to spend Christmas Eve at my new house. After attending a pair of Christmas Eve services, I headed down to the house. I’d seen a bunch of police cars in town so I knew that something was going on. After jumping in bed, I scanned Facebook on my […]
