Progress

Progress on the farm has been ongoing since I last posted in September. We are about halfway finished with the addition of the fence. We have added 2 goats and 1 pony to our farm crew. I have also been experimenting with soapmaking! We had expected to be a little farther along in our journey, however, we know that everything happens in God's perfect timing.

Proverbs 16:9: "A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps."

This one verse is so true to remember. We can make all the plans that we want, but they will not be prosperous or even happen until God sees fit for it to happen. Until that time, we must pray and seek God's guidance in every step we take. 

Until then, we will continue with building fences, tending to the goats, pony, and chickens. We will enjoy the land that He has provided us with. We will learn all that we can during this time of growth. Most importantly, we will do everything in accordance to God's will and to glorify Him. 

Thank you Rural King for help with this fencing. Now to put it all up!
When you don't have a tool to stretch fencing, you make one!






Now enjoy some pictures of our farm babies!

Previously, we were both working very demanding jobs, our 3 children attended public schools, and they were involved in all sorts of extra curricular activities. To say we were stretched thin is an understatement! Unfortunately, this led to unhealthy eating and sleeping habits, extreme stress, and just a generally unhealthy lifestyle.  In 2018, Blake accepted a position which involved traveling 2 to 3 weeks out of each month. This provided our family with the means for me to stay home with our children full-time and focus on their needs. I had worked mostly full time since I was 15 years old, so this was a drastic change for me. I decided to take a job working part-...
