Farm Life

Well it has been awhile since I posted... and much as changed.

The Woodford's are LOVING their new home!  :)  We are SOOOO excited.  There is much work to be done on the house and property... but it is ours!

Life on the farm is not as easy or romantic as it sounds... :)  yet we are enjoying every minute.

Each morning Jeff wakes up before dawn to get ready and start working on whatever project he has going.  So far he has finished the acre that fences in our horses and cows, put together raise beds for my garden and right now he is working on the chicken coop and run!

He usually wakes me up to say good morning and as I hear him leave I roll over and close my eyes.

About 6:00 I get up and am off to get the chores done.  Let the chickens out, feed and water them.

I usually come in and spend some time in the Word, sipping on coffee as the sun rises higher and higher  in the sky.  After that I am at a full run it seems... make breakfast, milk the cow, change the irrigation and make lunch.  Usually I have just finishing about the time to run out the door to work.

Although it is a lot of work Jeff and I are still loving being on our little farm!  :)

Below are some old pictures of the house, our garden and the old chicken coop...























Jeff's first chicken coop that he made himself... after we bought all the chicks we had to upgrade.  Photo's of the new chicken coop are on their way soon...  Not sure what the plan is for this one, may look at selling it, if someone needs one.



Jeff creating my garden!!  Which is doing much better then I thought it would! 
An old pump house that we made into garden shed.



Our sweet Keona dog... 
excited about the new house and ready for the farm life adventure.


The inside of our house. This was right after we moved in and we were living in the living room!  See if you can find Jeff?  That is one of his favorite hiding places.  He loves to sneak up there and try to scare me!  He has not succeeded yet... his dog always gives him away.  :)


Our AWESOME mom's who have helped us do a lot of the not so fun work on the house.  Thank you both for all your help.  We LOVE you!


Thank you to all those who have helped us continue to make this home our own!


More and new pictures coming soon!
