We've recently bought an acreage in the Foothills of the Rocky Mountains. I wanted a way to remember everything we are doing to our new home, and our new farm life. Nate and I were both raised in this area so we are soooo excited to settle here with our kids, and let them experience all the great things this area has to offer. I am new to this whole blog thingy, I swore I would never have one nor do I have the the time for one,( so if its not updated very often, don't blame me!) but at this point I think it may be the only way for me not to become a complete hermit! And I want to share with everyone all the fun things farm life has to offer.

At this point in time we only have 4 kids, 1 dog and 2 cats. The cats we got to take care of the mice problem in the garage, they seem to be doing their job quite well. My grandma has become the crazy cat lady, and was more than happy to give me a couple of them, since she said that my grandpa was getting tired of them and was going to shoot them. So I was more than happy to help her out too.  The kids adore them. The boy cat's name is Tommy and the girl is Princess. (we didn't name them, grandma did)  They have finally got used to our dog Nelly.

The house we bought is about a year old. The main floor is finished but the basement is not. Currently we have 6 people living in 2 bedrooms and a laundry room. Shiloh sleeps in the laundry room in a play pen and the other 3 share a room. You try putting 3 kids to bed in the same room at the same time!!! NOT FUN!! We are putting 3 more bedrooms in the basement. So that will hopefully free up a bit of space upstairs. We are aiming to have it done by Christmas, hopefully sooner! We will see though, these things never go according to plan!

That is the farm so far....
