This the season....

Well we are in full christmas countdown, the shopping list is getting shorter each week and the house and yard are decorated for the season.

We got the christmas tree simulator all set up and decorated.



We went for breakfast with santa, this is something that hasn't happened the last two years in the local town so it was nice to see it back on.


Then headed home to build our gingerbread house and watch some christmas movies and enjoy some popcorn.


The second week of november I attended a conference from one of the seed companies we buy from, aside from begin very educational it left me extra motivated for spring to arrive with the excitement of many new things we want to try.

After how hard we had to work weeding this summer we have spent many hours reviewing our weeding plans. In the fall we found a great tiller on kijiji, it has left our fields nicer then we have ever been able to get them with the plow and harrows, so planting in spring looks very promising already. We have also just hauled in our old G to the local tractor Doctor for a heart transplant and some cosmetic work. It will allow us to get closer to the plants in our tractor work and there a few attachment ideas for it like basket weeders and finger pickers that i would be interested in trying out to see how they perform in the pumpkins.


Our cats are so far enjoying there first winter with us, we built them this insulated house complete with therosat and a heat lamp.




Till next time...
