…and so ends 2009!

by

What a year! I can’t say that I’m glad it’s almost over because that would be wishing my life away and at my age, that’s not a good plan. I can’t believe how fast this year flew by. With Mother’s illness the first 3 months of the year and finishing out the last 2 months with illness again, most of the year has been a blurr.

Just trying to think..we’ve done some farm improvements, a few home improvements, added a couple of sheep and Beau-Cocks the rooster, birthed goat babies in the Spring, added on to our garden this past Summer, sheared sheep and goats in the Spring, took a couple of local trips to the mountains, and other wise it has been a fairly calm year..just the way we like it at the Farm. With the exception of Mom, it’s really been an OK year.

I guess there’s nothing more to say than…..



… be safe and all the best in 2010!!

Sunday Evening Ramblings

by

As I sit here this Sunday evening, just two days past Christmas, I am thinking about all of the new and wonderful friends we have made this year. I am so thankful for the support and understanding that I have received through this Holiday Season from everyone. For me, it is not easy to “go public” with things that are happening in my life, because I am by nature a very private person. As I have been told though, all things are relevant to the Farm and our lives here at the farm. The changes in the seasons, aging parents, new births and good byes to old friends, watching the once black muzzle, of our border collie “Gabe”, take on hints of white, looking in the mirror and seeing my own hints of silver (got to do something about that before 2010!!!), feeling that great sense of  being satisfied and content and so much more..all things really are relevant to our farm life.

To all my family, friends, acquaintances and customers thank you for all being a part of Breeze Hill Farm! We couldn’t do it without you and honestly, wouldn’t even want to try.

I hope everyone had a great Holiday and are looking forward to 2010!

By the way, we have a new Domain Name for our Blog..still can’t believe it was available. When you go straight to us now you can type  http://BreezeHillFarm.net..is that cool or what??? Now we’ve really got to get to work on our farm website, it’s a mess.

Have a good night..go Redskins..later.

A Beautiful Snow!

by

It fell in silence all night Friday and all day Saturday, blanketing the earth with 19 inches of it’s pure white grace. No sounds of cars or trains or even people. There were no prints, not even that of a bird. What an amazing feeling of solitude. The fire in the woodstove crackled sending its warmth into the house. We didn’t even talk as we watched this beautiful scene build through our picture window. I thought fondly of how many snows I had seen in my lifetime and how many of those were this close to Christmas. I thought of Christmas and wondered what we might do that day since Mom is back in the hospital. I thought of my Mom and wished that this draping of perfect beauty could somehow influence her healing process. I thought about my husband who has been my rock through all of the craziness of the last two months and wondered how all of this has made him feel. We gals don’t ask our hubby’s often enough how they are handling things, you know. Then with all of these thoughts and wonders, it hits me…..

Are You People Ever Going To Feed Us???

…the wonderful reality of owning a farm!!
