Each time I walk out to our chicken coop, I’m greeted by soft, friendly clucks. Our flock expanded earlier this spring after a weak moment in a farm store. What started as simply an enjoyable Sunday afternoon stroll through the aisles of a farm supply store came to a screeching halt when the metal stock…
Cottages and Puppies – A Life Update
On a cool December morning in 2017, I married my childhood sweetheart in our small, country church. It was a tiny (and short) ceremony, followed up by cinnamon roll cake and chili in the fellowship hall…
Candles, Cast Iron and Old Stoves… Welcome to My Home
A short piece sharing about my home, collection of cast iron cookware, love of candles, our old, wood stove and where we should be storing up our treasures at. Come on in! Watch out for the boots and grab a chair. I’m so glad you stopped by. Things have been kinda quiet recently and it’s…
Sweet Cupcakes and Rustic Wares – The Keriel Dairy Barn Sale
Hey, guys! It’s a rainy day here in Kansas. We’ve gone from wildfires and no moisture, to downpours and floods.. Okay, maybe not quite that bad. The river behind our house has gone over its banks once this past week, but didn’t quite make it over the bridges. So, today I’m sharing about the Barn…
For the Love of A Spice Cabinet
I love spices for their colors, flavors, and smells. They’re all different and each have something unique to offer. For this, I just grabbed a few of my favorites items out of the spice cabinet and started playing around. Instead of just tossing together a few pictures, I figured I’d add a little info about…
More Pasture Burning and Cattle Hauling (AKA Cowmobiling!)
Last week, I got to tag along to another pasture burning. It wasn’t as big as the last one I shared about (A 4500 Acre Pasture Burning in the Kansas Flint Hills) but that was okay by me! I’ve come to realize that I have a love for windmills.. Taking pictures of them mainly! Someday…
If God Took a Selfie
Selfies are quite popular. People have tablets, phones, and iPods that they like to take pictures of themselves with. There’s even selfie sticks for group photos. I had a thought; if God took a selfie, what would it look like? Some people might think that a glimpse of God might look something like this: Or…
A Tale of Many Cows
Happy Friday all! A couple evenings ago, I went over to a neighboring pasture to see the cows and calves. Have you ever just sat on a four wheeler and watched cattle? It’s surprisingly relaxing. I could just sit there for hours and contemplate the big questions in life. What questions, you ask? Oh you know….
Tagging Dolly
Dixie has a new playmate! Dolly was born Tuesday, January 19; this picture was taken then, before she was completely dry! A couple of days ago I went with my brother to tag Dolly. Here’s a picture of Dixie, in case y’all are wondering how she’s doing: Dixie is a healthy calf, and she’s…
Meet Dixie (And a few others!)
Hello all! Yesterday I had the privilege to go with one of my brothers to feed his cows. But this time there’s a special new addition to his cow/calf herd: Dixie! Dixie was born Wednesday, January 13. Isn’t she cute? Anyway, my brother had to put an ear tag on Dixie without her…
