After the hustle and bustle of the holiday season,
it was wonderful to be able to enjoy a quiet weekend at home.
Most of Saturday we spent indoors.
Sunday morning farm breakfast included fresh homemade blueberry muffins,
which Amanda made with last summer's blueberries,
homemade jams, and omelets (made with farm fresh eggs)
stuffed with feta cheese, caramelized onions, and kale from our garden.

(Yes, we are still picking fresh kale... in spite of the snow!)
While the farm is still covered in a blanket of ice and snow,
temperatures are warmer now...
making outdoor activities more comfortable.
We spent part of Sunday afternoon outdoors with the dogs,
and took them with us as we did the afternoon feeding.
Oakley and Sam playing fetch...
Sadie "swimming" in the snow (this is her favorite time of year)...
And Maddie, just happy to be along for a short walk...
As we travelled along, we fed the horses...
and donkeys...
collected the eggs, and threw scratch to the chickens...
and guineas...
fed the goats...
stopping for a couple of "Dot" pictures...
Dot is our most photogenic goat, and a bit of a camera hog...
Our last stop was a visit with Ginger and MaryAnn.
Not so fond of cold weather, these gals have been spending most of their time indoors.
They are always willing to come out for a visit...
especially if Maddie is with us.
MaryAnn is quite interested in the ball that Maddie has hidden in her mouth!
(So is Oakley!)

Gotta love those cute piggie snouts!
Of course Tom and Chuck came along with us...
and followed us almost the whole way back to the house.

The dogs sure look like they are having fun on your chore walk. Everyone sure seem to like the visiting as you went along.
Of course you know which one is my favorite photo!! Yeah, I got me some Sadie love this morning!
Here's to a great week, Hugs!!
No snow here and temps this week will be in the 50's and possibly 69's one day. My daffodils are up. Not blooming, but up!!
The quilt colors are so vibrant and pretty, I like it a lot!
