Hi, Christy! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I never did get any dairy goats. I just milk my sheep after I wean the babies. I can usually milk them for at least a month. I know that's not really long in the scheme of "real" dairies. But our issue is milking time, freezer space, and my sister can only make so much cheese at a time too. As for a milking unit I use the Udderly EZ milker which has been really great for me. I wish I had heard of the Maggidan's milker before I had spent so much $$!!
Gayle, I'm sorry! I'm sure glad we moved somewhere with mild winters.
Tina - I can't imagine milking a sheep! They are so skittish, how do you ever catch them? My goat follows me right to the stand and jumps right up. She seems to like being milked.
Mom - The animals were following Logan to the creek. They are all so people attached we can't go anywhere without them. The goats love the creek, the sheep weren't so sure.
Hugging a chicken sounds like a nice day. I always wanted my mom to get chickens, but she geese and ducks. The geese were mean and the ducks though not nasty, weren't particularly friendly either.
Your Farm sounds just like ours. We've got 12 acres. I came over from Jennifer's blog and I see Rachel knows you. My girls just love our farm and yes we have pet chickens,cows, horses and cats. Sheep aren't in the future. Lovely blog and great stories
Our neighbor's old tractor. I just like the way it looks.

Logan has a great childs life.

The weather looks great. Love the pics of the animals following Logan.

What great looking weather. Love the way the animals seem to be following Logan down to the creek. Looks like such fun.

I like the tractor... sure beats doing everything manually. :)
Looks like you guys are having a great time, congrats! To think it was just a faraway dream not-so-long-ago...
