Gearing up for winter!

It's beginning to get cold here so we tested out our "Water stove". The water stove is like a outside fireplace that warms the house with heated water. Since summer we have been storing up wood, we can fit so much wood inside it! 
Another project we have been working on, is mom's garden. We tilled the whole thing, then covered it in plastic because the weeds get so bad, it turned out great! 
The chickens are almost ready to lay eggs, no one has yet, but Scotty thinks they will soon!
Other than that, not much is going on. We are getting ready for Halloween and getting our costumes ready!
Hope you guys have a great weekend!

We are replacing the toilets, sink spigot and spouts, painting the cabinets and replacing the handles, fixing lights and a ton more. It's all really fun work!

But we got that situated and the moths went back outside.  Dad has been working hard in his barn and...

Easter

On Easter we had a few of our friends over for dinner and an egg hunt. Since our yards are so big the parents hid 100 eggs for the kids and us kids hid about 50 for the parents beer hunt. We had a few golden eggs with prize baskets and a super big egg with a mystery surprise (5 cans of silly string).  And of course we hid them as hard as we could with the only rule of no burying them. Though im sure theres some more still out there, we keep finding them.😅 Happy Easter!

The pigs

Yesterday we picked up 2 piglets from a farm a few hours away, brought them home, and put them into the training pen.  At first they were a little scared, but it only took them about ten minutes to get used to it and Scotty started feeding them out of his hand. They are friendly, but they do bite occasionally.  Tomorrow were getting our last one, but that one is going to be more of a pet. These two... 🥓.
