a productive snow day



It was a beautiful snow, light and fluffy. After tending to all the animals I decided to start planning the garden for spring. I have quite a pile of seeds leftover from last year, so that's a good start. I also narrowed a shopping list of flower seeds for the weddings (my sister Amy's and best friend Savannah's.) I filled out the calendar with all the planting dates to match the almanac calendar. Also, since working on the field on Sunday, I am super motivated to get a goat. I spent a good bit of the day looking at fencing supplies online, although I know what I need, but hauling 16 foot cattle panels is always a challenge. I fixed dinner tonight, which is unusual (Mom usually makes dinner because Dad likes to eat at precisely five o'clock) and I enjoyed it very much. We had pork chops, mashed potatoes, carrots, salad, and homemade apple bread. That was my favorite part. I have leftovers for breakfast tomorrow, and a whole loaf frozen for later. I love cooking. Well, we just finished checking on the animals, make sure they aren't blowing away, now I think I'm going to relax for a bit before bed.


Until next time,

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.
