Land of Milk and Honey...


Because of these cute babies - we are getting creamy goat milk again.
(from their mama)
Mmmmm Mmmm...
Milk!

Because of these little creatures - we will be harvesting yummy sweet stuff

Hudson and Papa (my dad) feeding the bees and helping them get settled.

Lotsa Bees =

Lotsa HONEY

Hence - The Land of Milk and Honey!

Oh AND...

FRUIT
Papa and Nana brought up raspberry starts from their garden


Papa had lots of helpers.


AND SNOW!
(still no flips for me)
BUT... my day is a comin'

Watch out because when my day comes - I will be dancing in the yard with my flip flops ON!

Love the pictures. We too use the milk and honey theme. We have dairy animals and normally we have bees although we lost them a couple of winters ago and have not replaced them yet. Amazing Graze Farm... the land of milk and honey!! :)

How exciting!! I don't think I can do goats milk because I tried it years ago and couldn't get passed the smell. I felt like i could just taste the fur too. Maybe there's a difference in fresh versus store bought???!!! Honey...yum:) Man, there is always excitement going on around there. I sure would love to visit!

Blessings to you today, I came by after seeing you at Sit a Spell. I live in northeast Colorado and like you I'm ready for spring and now the white stuff. Loved reading your profile; I have two daughters whom I homeschooled who are married and have ooddles of kids and now they homeschool. Love the simple life on the land but we live in a neighborhood. I'm going to follow because I feel that we are kindred spirits in a sense-and sisters in the Lord.
Hugs, Noreen

I love the life lessons your kids are learning!!! Goat's milk... I am like Amy, I tried it a few years ago and gagged. My husband said the male goat was to close or something like that. He said it is much better fresh!!! I am tempted to give it another try...maybe!!!

My son wants to get a bee hive, I told him in a few years when he is a little older and mature we could try it. It is better for you if you get honey near your place.
