It’s beginning to look a lot like a country Christmas around here!

We’re celebrating our second Christmas on the farm this year. Last year we had barely finished unpacking and everything felt rushed and chaotic. Christmas certainly made it finally feel like we were settled last year, but it was hard to get into the spirit of the holiday.

This year, we have had time to prepare. We’ve been here for a full year. The chicken’s are laying steadily now, although slowing down for the winter, and we even managed to enjoy some of the crops from our garden. Although none of the walnuts, damn squirrels!

I’m looking forward to the calm and quiet that the holidays bring, and for the first time in a long time, the Christmas spirit feels bountiful in our home.
