Has it really been over two years since I've blogged on this thing!? I guess I have some catching up to do. Here is the last 2 1/2 years in a nutshell:
My husband and I closed on the farm of our dreams May 14, 2012. We had horses, chickens, acres of land, a greenhouse and a garden. This past summer (2014) my husband got a transfer and we made a move overseas to Germany. The following pictures are of our adventures while living on our Colorado farm.

Hello new adventures in Germany.

In my next post I hope to get some pictures posted of our time so far here in Germany. Hopefully before two years get by me.
Cheers!

ReplyDeleteSo Germany is it? The kids will have a chance to learn BUNCHES good stuff. Keep up the blog when you can.
