Working the land still

I still have not gotten as far as I wished I would, in the last 2 weeks we have lost a car due to the transmission going out however after a fee days of prayer, those prayers were answered and we have a running car that will get Sandi back and forth to her jobs. I set the tiller on fire, I had just gotten it to run and was going good then it bursted into flames that were a few feet high. I still have not gotten the garden in; however, I did manage to get seven 12 ft rows of corn planted, 5 mounds of watermelons and also 3 mounds of pumpkins planted too. I hope to soon have some others planted soon as well since the rain should have my ground wet enough that I can get some tines down into it. I'm using a garden weasel pro claw so its very time consuming.

The chickens are getting bigger and smarter, the bunnies are bigger too. Also one of our other rabbits had babies Thursday, but out of the 3 she had on one survived. She was a first time momma so I'll let her slide this time  but if the next ones are the same way then I'll need to have a different breeder I'm guessing. I'm writing this over breakfast right now, and finally the rain has stoped so I can go out and take care of the animals without getting wet..I will try and get some newer pictures posted later today.
Take care

Our Farm. April 2015

Its been my dream for a long time to have a little self sustained place of my own.. November of 2014 that dream started to become a bit of a reality. Every few weeks things would come up making it another step closer to being that reality. First we found a set of rabbit breeding stock, cages and all. We now have our first babies which were born 4 weeks ago today. That is a picture of them from last week. Today, we have chickens... About 2-3 months from now we will have eggs too.. We made sure to get a rooster as well so he would protect our new chicks and perhaps even bless us with some more chickens as we go along. I will also be building a bee hive soon too as we keep getting blessed with honey bees that have been fly too and froe.

I have been working the land a bit and truing to get out garden into the ground as fast as I can. We bought a tiller but for right now I have been working it with a garden weasel pro claw. Its a lot of work yes but during the time that I am doing it, I also meditate and spend time with Jesus. It will have been a week tomorrow that I took the leap of faith to get away from the beverage company I was working for. It was forcing me to become such a horrible person.
