Essential oils for traveling!

One little thing you can bring with you on your next trip can be essential oils! Below I have picked out 5 of the best oils for traveling.
● Lavender- Lavender is mostly used for calming purposes, but you can use it to calm irritated skin. At night time, before bed you can apply the oil  to the bottoms of your feet or your pillow.
●Lemon- Lemon is one of my favorite oils. It's has so many uses and is a great one for the car because of its uplifting and posotive scent. Firstly it can be added to olive oil to make a furniture polish. Next, it can remove greasy substances, gum and  sticky label pieces from fabric. Then you could add a drop or two to your water, diffuse it into the air, and even clean your counters!
●Peppermint- Peppermint is a strong oil, but very useful. Put one drop of peppermint and one drop of lemon into your water to make a mouthwash. Add to your shampoo for a potent shampoo. It also could help you get rid of your headache when you diffuse it.
●Ginger- This oil is very useful on road trips. It can cure nausa or indesgetion when taken internally. To take internally you could add one drop to your water or tea, or put 1 to 2 drops into a vegetable capsule.
●Thieves- Thieves is an antibacterial oil that can killl germs. Simply put a few drops into a spray bottle with water and spray on the surface you wish to disenfect. Or put a couple drops onto a cloth to disinfect a object like a shopping cart.

A tour around our house!

Here is a tour of our house! We will start with the outside. This is the front porch/sitting area. And this is our dining area in the kitchen. Cant forget this dramatic picture of the chandelier!  And here is the view off our back deck! The play structure has Scotty's shelter on it.  Now an update on the pets! Lucy is doing great! She has been going on walks every morning and night without getting scared. She even goes out onto the dock with us sometimes. And occasionally she will chase squirrels around the yard! She is getting more comfortable with the ducks, but doesn't like to sniff them because one bit her nose! But other than that, she loves it out here.  Tea and Crumpets are also doing good. Just being guinea pigs. We have let them play outside in a cage and they loved it! They also get to play around my room sometimes too.  Finally we have Pickles and Sapphire. They too, are doing good. They are still crazy loud and messy. But they are happy.  The ducklin...

Today we get pigs

After lunch today, we're driving a few hours to pick up the pigs. We're getting two Berkshire crosses today and one Kune-Kune on Sunday from a different place.  Dad has built the training pen behind the stove, you can see on the right there's the water and the far left is their house.  And, of course, Scotty named the two pigs,  Bop and Bonk 😂 Can anyone guess what those names are from?
