Fall Work Begins...


Friday, we got to spend the entire afternoon in the yard (started the preparations for Fall/Winter seasons). It was an extremely nice day. I can't believe it was warm enough to work in short sleeves! Jeremy and Kaitlyn mowed the lawn and picked up many of the leaves that are beginning to fall. This time of year, he's usually outside at least twice a week mowing/gathering the leaves that fall from our large maple trees. We also started cleaning up the garden and clearing things out so Jeremy could start rototilling. I was able to trim and remove many of the plants in the flower beds with Ally's help. Ally also helped dad put up a fence around the tree that the goats are eating the bark off of (Jer was scared they were going to kill it). We love our opportunities to work together and care for our place...it brings much joy and happiness to our lives and we are indeed blessed.
