Another weekend project!

We pulled out bushes last weekend and this weekend we pulled out the trees. Pulling them out brighten up the house and now we wont have all those leaves to rack up this fall!




 

New addition to the Van Werven Family

This morning Jordan went out to feed the dogs and goats, to find a new little baby goat bouncing around outside. One of our goats had a baby in the middle of the night last night. The little goat is a girl but I am not sure what I am going to name it, yet. These goats are my mothers project but this little goat may just become one of ours.... Or we may sell it because girls are worth more. =)

Weekend Project

Today we decided to pull out some mammoth bushed that were in the front yard of our house. We're going to move the split rail fence up closer to the road and cut down three of the trees to plant grass.  Here are a few of the highlights! 

What it looked like before. I think these bushes were planted when I was about seven years old. 

Kohen wanted to ride with dad!

The finished product!

Canning master...

Today my lovely aunt and cousin taught me how to can. There is a lot more too it then I thought but it really isn't all the hard. This winter I am hoping to pick up canning. It was a fun day spent with all the little 2nd cousins. I love my family!
