This week made the farm sooo muddy! Every lesson planned was rearranged at the last minute earlier this week. Today we finally had a small window of opportunity for lessons! I didn’t get a picture of everyone today, unfortunately.

We gave Mia her first halter for her horse. 💕☺️ She was so excited to try it on him!! Unfortunately I didn’t get a picture of that, either. 🤦‍♀️ However I did try to get a picture of her and Aurora giving Diesel love and attention. Mia loves that pony!!

All my boarders came out to see their horses, giving them love and attention even though the weather is dodgy. They even helped around the farm. I appreciate their help with chores when they come out.

Some progress this weekend despite the rain. 🌧️

We didn’t have lessons since its Memorial Day weekend. This gave us time to work on things around the farm (and get house chores done).

The rainbow this evening was beautiful!! My pictures don’t do it justice.

I need one, possibly two, more sheds built and the newly cleared area fenced in…

Aside from that, we have progress! Started to build our new coop/ poultry run yesterday.

Today we moved Hippona back with the herd after spending a week in recovery for an injury.

I was worried about the impending storms, so I move Diesel into the Ravine Paddock so he could have a shelter. I worry about Brontës, though— he’s currently the only paddock without a shelter.

We’ve had rabbits run around during lessons, hawks fly overhead, mockingbirds chase blue jays, baby blue birds and wrens— lots of activity here at our farm.

We are moving them to a bigger coop/ brooder soon. I just have to 1) build the new one, and 2) move the big ones to the current coop.

It’s a process…

In the mean time, I find it so cute that the chicks want to cuddle with the ducks. We are trying to keep everyone cool (yes, to is actually too hot for the lamp!) mid-day.

I just want to give a shout out to my parents.

They deserve an award. No, really, they do!! They’ve helped us here at the farm soooo much!!

They spent an entire morning this week just cleaning up the driveway entrance to the farm.
Did I ask them too? No, they volunteered when they didn’t have to do so.

I love my mom and dad!! 💐 🥰

It’s a busy week. It seems to be the normal thing now!

Projects got completed during the week. We spent all day outside yesterday working on projects. Eric is working overtime this weekend. My boarders/ students were so awesome! They helped complete a project or two while out here spending time with their own horses (and taking riding lessons).

I worked on projects today but I had errands to run— and at some point I need to get laundry done! 😂

Aurora is going to help me this evening with some things around the farm.
