A lots been going on in our home...

Wow, has it been a long time since I've posted here. I am sorry! I began a different blog called No Spend Month where I blogged about our way of paying off debt. I really got into that one until my husband lost his job. At that point we had to stop paying off our debt, which really bummed me out.

Since then we've been waiting for all the snow to melt and the temps to warm up so we could begin putting in our garden and fruit trees. We have always wanted to have a large garden, lots of fruit trees and berry bushes for our family.

On Saturday we bought our first dog. A yellow labrador retriever. She is 8 weeks old and the sweetest little thing. We've named her *Honeybelle* and our Littles affectionately call her, Honey.



In 2 weeks we will be getting our baby chicks...25 of them! We are really embracing the homesteading life. Really loving it! My husband is building our chicken coop as I type this. He has really become the handman as of late. And he is doing a fabulous job at it too! I will be sure to post pictures of our chicks and coop in May.

I am really going to make a huge effort to post more often here. I wanted this blog to be a diary of sorts for my family and I've not done so well thus far.

Happy Spring!
