Finally Fall

Finally Fall on our little Farm

The crisp and cool weather is a most welcome guest on our little slice of heaven.  The trees are beginning to give the warm glow of reds, yellows and browns.  The nights are longer and the animals all seem to be figuring out how they will spend the winter.

The squirrels were not the only ones who are searching for nature’s bounty.  We found these enormous acorns falling from an unassuming oak tree near the the cottage.

I think I will scatter them on the table for added color this Thanksgiving.  I imagine that we will eat outside if the weather permits.

I am hoping that the pumpkins I finally got in the ground will be ripe and ready for pie making come November.

Meanwhile, my biggest concern now is getting our milk doe bred.   Bailey is quite the looker and a fabulous dancer.  Don’t take my word though look for yourself…..

Not too bad huh? The leaves give her minty fresh breath too, so if you happen to know of any herd sires looking to make some babies…let us know.
