live simply, so others can simply live

We have been incredibly productive the last two weeks since we came home. Most of our efforts have been focused on building and organizing the new shop (quite an endeavor), but we did find time to plant garlic we snagged at our first trip to the Grandin farmers market. This morning we harvested the remaining basil to dry. I'm going to paint some pretty glass jars to put it in come spring. Do you think there's a market for organic grown and dried spices in hand painted jars? We also marked off the area of our future garden, which has me so excited to find graph paper and begin planning it out. Our first real big garden. Life is pretty incredible.

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved. Until next time, Angela Kelly

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends. Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly

the dogs of luna acres - always ready to go

Our little farm is quite over run with animals, although most of them not the working farm type. The three dogs take turns guarding the place and sleeping on the couch. They all have their flaws and strengths, but not one of them what most would consider "well trained". We love them all the same, we know it our own fault for not working harder for them. We are blessed with space for them to run relatively free on their own. The yard this time of year is littered with deer legs and bones, the occasional head or spinal cord. It's a good life for these dogs. Trilli and Dakota ready to go Dakota eating the snow Bandit, the oldest pup, is still always ready for a walk, even if he doesn't make it all the way there the view this afternoon It's funny, even with all the freedom, they are always ready to go for a walk. Until next time, Angela Kelly
