Two months in and our homestead is really starting to feel like home. We've accomplished a lot, but still have so much to do. We are trying to find a new rhythm with this new farming life and renovating a house. I admit there are moments when I think what in the world have we gotten ourselves into. Other times I look around and am in amazement for this new adventure.
Here's a glimpse at what's happened in the last week...
We are putting the finishing touches to the master bedroom.
It is our one room where we can sneak to if we need a little break from the rest of the house.
The turkeys are outside and loving it!
We've begun stocking our shelves with preserved summer goodness.
The first layer of wallpaper is down in the school room.
Deer decimated our garden one night this week.
They ate all of the sweet potatoes, tomatoes, sunflowers, and some of our cucumbers. It was sad.
But as I was surveying the damage, I saw our beans growing up our corn stalks. That made me smile.
We cleaned up some fallen trees in the pastures.
We have a good start to the firewood that we will use this winter.
We also now have our swing hanging on our side porch.
It's been a nice place to enjoy the beautiful weather lately!
