Spring is Here!!

Spring is finally here and everything is turning so green! I love this time of year!!
The pivot out back of our house is so pretty! I love waking up in the morning and see the sun coming up over the mountain. Making everything looks so bright and green.
This is the view from our back porch.
The other evening their was rain clouds around. They were so pretty!
I always said that if I could paint I would paint the sky with big white thunder heads. Something about it is so amazing! To be able to capture the same effect on canvas would be a wish come true for me. I don't know, maybe someday I'll give it a try! 


The barn that will soon be our dairy barn. Can't wait till it all gets set up! :)
Mom's garden spot. She has planted quite a few things already. Dad recently set up the small greenhouse for starting seeds in.
Spring is such a fun time of year, but always a busy one. :)

This week has been a beautiful week! There's going to be a lovely potluck Sunday afternoon after a wonderful Easter service. We are all looking forward to that! :) Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Happy Easter!!!

March

... that poor lonely month that went past so quickly and didn't get much attention on my blog. Yet, so much was happening all along, making me a busy person, not taking the time to keep note. Well, we won't let it be forgotten all together. I have a few pictures from here and there, but the most exciting part is that I got wedding pictures to share with you all as soon as I get them all together and sorted through. So don't go far, this blog is about to be over run by pictures. :)

Ok, so we actually planted these raspberry and strawberry plants back in February and I never posted about them. Not really something that happened in March, but they grew a bit in March, so that some how counts!! 
We couldn't stand the thought of leaving all our wonderful berry plants back at the old place, so we dug quite a few of them and transplanted them here. 
We made four long rows. We won't really get anything off of them this year, which is sad, but at least we can look forward to lots in the future! We also planted three rows of  strawberries. They have really taken off in the soft soil.
We also brought up all our compost from the last place. We spread it around the berries before putting a layer of hay on top.

Spreading the hay.
Taking a break from work. :)
Milk has been keeping us very busy. Joanna and I delivered around 50 gallon to Tucson on Wednesday. 
When we get back we have lots and lots of jars to send through the dishwasher. 
Jubilee making sure that none of the cookie batter is wasted!
Taking a ride on Dixie. Jenny and Micah still have lots of pigs!
::exploring::

Wedding hair practice... :)

Last shopping trip before leaving for PA.
Jubilee was playing with play dough and she stuck all her animals in upside down. I asked her why and she said they were sleeping. haha :)
Game night with the youth. I think us girls are a bit out numbered!
So thankful for these girls who moved in year before last. We always have so much fun!!
All ready for church...

Now you all have a small view of our month of march. I'll try to get more pictures on soon!
