Mornings are the best at this time of year!
The sky, so dynamic, kissed by the rising morning sun fills me with wonder and awe.
The snow melted enough that we sent the horses to the upper pasture. And by "sent", that's exactly what I mean. No longer are we walking them up on lead ropes. They are totally programmed to run up to the pasture as soon as the gate opens. It's quite comical how fast they gallop to their breakfast.
The donkeys, too chubby for rich grass, enjoyed their breakfast of hay in the dry lot - the sunrise providing the perfect breakfast backdrop.
It was a very cold, windy morning as we worked our way through morning chores. All of the kitties are enjoying beds beneath heat lamps now. Sometimes I wish that I, too, had a heat lamp over my bed!
Wren's mommy and I headed out into the countryside to explore a few local craft shops. All of the Christmas decor and music really put me into the mood for decorating. I am going to get the holiday decor out of the attic after Thanksgiving. I'll give you a holiday house tour when I am finished!
During the couple hours that we were gone, Wren and her grandpa Jack spent some time exploring the woods and visiting the horses. I only wish I could share a video of her - she's quite chatty and very precocious. We are so enjoying her visit! Sadly, she leaves us this evening.
This weekend we are helping The Littles move into their new house. Other than that, it will be a quiet weekend here on the farm.
