This year we're thankful for. . .

A- Apples. Apple pie, Apple sauce, Apple butters. Looking forward to starting new trees.

 
B- Barn space. Being able to house not only our animals but most of our equipment this winter will be wonderful.


C- Canning. Though we left a full garden behind, we are still enjoying last years goods and I overcame my fear of the pressure canner.



D- Deer. To keep Rog and his binoculars on the hunt all winter.




E- Elephant. Since we have so much more space, I sort of want one.


F- Fireplace. Cozy, crackling and a useful 'back-up' plan to our propane heat.

                        
 

G- Goats. Spoiled stinkers.




H- Hay. Because we can never have enough. Especially when the elephant arrives.


I- Iris. She's super cute and mischievous.

                 

J- jam and jelly. Beet is my favorite, Rog prefers blueberry.


K- Kitties. Rosie, of course. Annie-cat, Mama-Kitty and Socks, the skittish stray that eats all of the food.

                       

L- Licorice. Yep. 


M- moo-cows. I want one of those too. Her name will be Minnie, preferably a Jersey.


N- Niece. Our new niece, Ava, who loves her pumpkin. 

                             

O- oaks. In about 100 years, these newly planted trees will look fantastic!




P- Pups.



Q- Quiet. 



R- Room to Roam.



S- Silkies. Our study new rooster who doesn't realize he is tiny and looks like a marshmallow.


T- Tedder. Moving this back from Adario this Tuesday officially, finally, ends our move.



U- Una. She single-handedly stacked these bales for us. 10 more on the way. Her mother told us not to work her too hard while she was here...


V- Video player on amazon. How else would we survive winter?


W- wood. Fire. Wood make fire.


X- X-rays. X-rays help us feed our goats. And pay a mortgage.


Y- yamaha. Yamaha Grizzly 660. Indispensable on the farm.


Z- zippers. Z is tough. But zippers are certainly helpful, life would be awkward without them.


Happy Thanksgiving from Capra Lane Farm!
