THIS & THAT.

Staring contest with Dandy. Never thought I'd see myself on a magazine rack in Wal-Mart. (Did you see us in Story Magazine?) This was the INSIDE of our window during the crazy cold snap.Bantam egg versus regular. It may be small, but it makes up for it in DELICIOUS. Snow Bear!Bearcicles from being outside for just a few minutes.

WINTER CHORES.

With cold temperatures comes a new daily chore: breaking the ice. We have to make sure the animals have access to their water, and without electricity, this means breaking the ice (sometimes multiple times a day). For us, this is quite simple: just the dog and the cat and the chickens. But while Bugtussle was away for the holiday, we got to walk up the hill to break the ice for the sheep and cows. I love seeing these guys when they get their fluffy, scruffy winter coats....it definitely makes it worth the cold morning walk.- Hannah.
