Crazy how the weather changed round here. Things were warm and sunny, then turned into a wicked blowing snowstorm, then melting away the next day, and now we're gearing up for a rainy, slushy snow coming our way tonight through tomorrow. 😏 Welcome to the Midwest, wear we can get a little bit of everything in a week’s time. ❔️Are you feeling some whiplash with this weather, too? . . #homesteading #weatherinthemidwest #backyardchickens #goatmama #roughcollies #simpleliving #naturelovers #homesteadlife #backyardgarden #homesteadhaven

What a doozy of some weather blew in last night. From spring weather to blizzard conditions, we're so grateful all the power did was glitch and tease all night. All the livestock is okay, a tad grumpy but comfortable and safe. We'll dig them out once the wind dies down. #homesteading #simpleliving #naturelovers #homesteadlife #backyardgarden #homesteadhaven #roughcollies

Planning, dreaming, and trying so hard not to start all the seeds just yet..it literally was a blizzardvlast night 😅🌱 Sticking with our tried-and-true producers, but also experimenting this year! We're diving into The Three Sisters method—inspired by our Early American & Native American history studies. Excited to see how it goes! 🌽 🎃 . . #homesteading #simpleliving #homesteadlife #backyardgarden #homesteadhaven #sustainableliving #growyourownfood #intentionalhomemaking #simplelivingmama #presentmotherhood #slowmotherhood #christianmama #motherhoodinspired

Memory Lane Monday. Not a thing but I'm going with it today 💕 My sweet Buffie hen, Rosie was one of our friendliest hens. Ever ready for a snuggle, she’d make her presence known by gently nestling into our lap or flapping up to perch on our shoulder whenever she felt overlooked. It’s incredible how a small creature can capture your heart so completely that her absence leaves an enduring void. Even months after her departure, every glance at her gentle face in our photos tugs at our heart. Rosie was a treasured part of our flock and our family, and her memory will forever live on in our hearts. Love you forever and always, Rosie. . . #bufforpington #backyardchickens #chickenmama #homesteading #homesteadandflourish #farmmama #outdoormama

A snippet of what my morning tends to look like. Once it's warmer we'll enjoy the sunrise together but for now I amuse her with tours around all daddy's tools and materials while we say good morning to mama's plants while wait for the rest of the house to wake up 🥰 . . #simplelivingmama #slowmotherhood #presentmotherhood #christianmama #motherhoodinspired #mamaandbaby #mamaanddaughter #homerenovations #homesteadkitchen
