The Brundage Family Farm

Alrighty, I've been doing some homework and am ready to give you some more pictures. These are focusing on our new house and property. We really hit the ground running with so much grass and weeds growing so fast. That pushed us to quickly get our tractor and mower. Now that the rains have stopped and the grass slowing down, we have time to get all the plans laid out for the farm. We already have 4 chickens, 1 rooster and 1 duck that we are keeping. We are babysitting 3 goats untill their owners get a fence up at their new house. We also have 2 farm cats and realized 2 days ago that 1 of them is extremely pregnant! Our little family has grown considerably in our new home!
Here are some photos of where the gardens are going to be and our 2 barns. The big barn is for storage and housing the chickens. We are planning on building a much bigger coop and running yard and getting about 50 more...lots of eggs! The smaller barn is our work room. It will have the cooler, sink and prepping tables as well as our seeding and warming tables.





Here are some of the house.



Here are the goats and chickens



and finally, some sunsets we've enjoyed......

Will's b-day part 2






I haven't blogged in such a long while that I've forgotten how to use this website! My previous post was some of Will's 1st Birthday party. All of KAte's family and also some of our friends came out and we barbque'd chicken. Now that we live in the country, it is very enjoyable when people come over to visit! Here is some more of Will's party, I had to add the pictures of Will discovering his first candle. Poor little guy, he promptly stuck his finger right into the flame when he saw it (totally my child) and all of us couldn't stop laughing, it was very cute, but Will sure didn't like it! I also added a pic of Will and Kate saying hi to Rocky, one of our goats. We have 3 but they will be leaving us mid-Aug.
