First Set of Twins for Golden Rule Dairy!

A surprise- when we went to the pasture, we found not just one but two little fellows! 


They are so tiny and sooo adorable :) 

Jubilee loves them, of course, but they were coming after her so she just runs away :)


She pats their heads and talks to them, sometimes they get a few kisses :)

Waiting on their supper...
And Little Benaiah gets to enjoy them as well- our little farm boy in the making :)

Christmas Memories 2017!!

Our Christmas day was gray but warmish- wish we could have seen some snow :)

Benaiah on Grandpa's shoulders...

Then little Owen comes next- he's  so soft and cuddly :) 

And Auntie Jubilee loves to "mother" him when she can...

I had a little helper to set the table...
Our table decor is always pine branches and pine cones as we have plenty of them....

Some friends gave us some bees wax candles, they were fun to burn...

Our normal menu of soup and salad, but instead of ham we had little smokies...
Chicken noodle soup, sausage potato soup...

The smokies and gnocchi soup....
Kaitlyn's yummy dessert...

A favorite cottage cheese dish...
And our raspberry dessert and Hannah's iced brownies in the back and some chocolate candy...



A happy face, ready to open her presents...

Our happy family, minus our Canadians  :(  And next year, we may have less as they may be in Canada as well...

The boys mostly got warm beanies which they really use for chores on our cold mornings... 
Not sure why these pics are so blurry, hope you can still enjoy...
The girls have handed this blog post job over to "Mom" so I will try my best to keep you updated with our life here in AZ.  Wedding plans are in FULL swing and we are counting down the days!!!  We have 3 weeks left til Joylin's wedding.
