new on the farm.

lately, i've been living in great anticipation of spring and all that comes with the season. the farm has been dead and dreary...until today. a set of twin goats were born- a boy and a girl! 

and though it may be bleak outside, its bright and colorful inside our home today. :)

city slicker and country bumpkin.

this morning i went out to assist and photograph tim feeding the baby goats with milk replacement and milking the mamma goat for one whole quart of fresh goat's milk. even though i've grown up and lived most of my life in a small rural town, i've never felt more like a city girl. especially when tim told me i needed to learn how to milk so i could do it mornings he wouldn't be able to. what???
