We're lucky...

Oh farm life! Our crop is flourishing after the rain and all of our high tunnels are repaired after the strong early thunderstorms too. Something else we haven't mentioned is the animals that live on our farm. We tend to take forgranted how lucky we are to have some many wonderful things surrounding us on a daily basis that a lot of people don't have the chance to see.

For example, last week we had a couple guests from the Netherlands tour our farm. Our daily surroundings is something they have never really gotten to experience before. At the time we laughed but then it made me think of how truely fortunate we are here in good ol Lafayette County Missouri! Below are some pics Bret took today while driving around the farm. The animals are enjoying the sunshine as much as we are!
The babies and their mama's are playing in the sun. Notice the one on the left standing on it's back legs to get the first taste of greenery from the tree. These crazy goats will eat ANYTHING!!!
Holy cow...the girls are drying out and soaking up the sun. Wonder if they think the skyline is as pretty as we do?
Here is the view from our back step at the house. This rainbow is going directly over the top of the family farm. It started as a double rainbow but our camera skills weren't fast enough to catch it though. We admired the site for a couple moments then headed back into our house then turned to get one last peak and it was gone! We're hoping the pot of gold is hiding over one of the hills!
