What Have We Missed?

woah! how did so much time go by since my last update? craziness! here are a few highlights of farm activities since we last chatted...

our great pyrenees chloe had pups (father was a traveling man:)) and we were able to find great homes for all three of them.

the Mast family came and lived in the old house at the bottom of the drive. they were a part of most of our household activities. it was really fun to have them around! they cut down a bunch of boxwood in front of the old house they were staying in. we made wreaths as a fundraiser and sold them from the OCP. they really turned out great. here the kids are trying them out as head ornaments:)

tripp got a beautiful stand up bass with some of his christmas moolah. he's been playing crazy jams ever since. i think bass is one of the most beautiful instruments. the swirl at the top... it's just so grand!
tripp's parent's got me a sewing machine for christmas! i don't have any pictures of the things i've made yet. so far i've made a purse, an apron and a rice heat bag. but digby chewed up my favorite little rice bag... barbarian!

my current creative pursuit is knitting up a pair of wrist warmers for one of my super crafty students. she made me an awesome duct tape bag and i'm making purple and white wrist warmers for her as a trade.

i'll try to get pictures up soon!
