Some friendships don't need words. ❤️🐾
Around the homestead, there's always work to do—but sometimes the best part of the day is taking a minute to enjoy the company of a loyal friend.

🐷💦 We moved the pigs down to the pond, and judging by their reaction, we're pretty sure they approve! 😂

Nothing beats watching happy pigs splash, root around, and settle into a new spot on a warm day. Seeing them enjoy the simple things is one of our favorite parts of homestead life.

We'd call this move a success! ❤️🌿

It's been a while since we've had baby bunnies around here, so finding this nest full of tiny spotted bundles of fluff was pretty exciting! ❤️

We're looking forward to watching these little hoppers grow over the next few weeks. For now, we'll be quietly checking on them and letting mama do what she does best.

Welcome to the world, little buns! 🖤🤍

Last call for anyone interested in Katahdin ram lambs. We have 4 intact rams and 2 wethers that are available. Please message for details. 🐏

We knew something was up when we could hear snoring clear across the field… 😄🐖

Walked over to check on the pigs and found this instead—these four had tucked themselves into the vines, made a cozy little nest, and were completely piled on top of each other fast asleep. Not a care in the world.

Farm life isn’t always quiet… sometimes it’s just loud napping 😂

Anyone else have animals that snore louder than they should?

Freezer’s getting a little fuller today 🎣❄️

Had a great run catching some beautiful rainbow trout and managed to bring home a solid haul. Nothing beats time on the water and knowing you’ve got clean, home-caught food going into the freezer. Got them all cleaned up, vacuum sealed, and ready for meals down the road—always a satisfying feeling.

Around here, our favorite way to cook trout is simple: pan fried in butter with a handful of fresh herbs. Hard to beat that crispy skin and flaky meat.

What’s your go-to trout recipe? Always looking for new ways to cook them!

Update on Froggy 🐑💛

We’re so thankful to share that things are looking much better!

After some time, patience, and a lot of watching and waiting, mom has started accepting Froggy—and even better, he’s nursing! 🙌

It’s such a relief to see them together like this after a bit of a rocky start. Froggy is getting stronger on those legs, and mama is settling into her new role just fine.

Thank you to everyone who prayed and checked in on them—we truly appreciate it more than you know. ❤️

Homesteading keeps us humble, but moments like this make it all worth it.

Late yesterday brought one of those moments that reminds us homesteading isn’t always easy.

We had a first-time mama who struggled through a long labor and needed a little help. Thankfully, both mom and baby made it through safely.

Little “Froggy” (named for all the hopping he did right after birth before figuring out those legs!) wasn’t able to nurse at first, so we stepped in with a bottle to give him a good start.

Right now, mama and baby are resting together in a small pen, and we’re praying they bond well and that she begins feeding him soon.

We’d appreciate your prayers for this sweet pair 💛

When you just had eye surgery but there's farm chores that need to be done. ATV goggles for the win! 😎
