Oh I almost forgot to mention. James installed a new dishwasher. And we had our ductless Heat pump installed today. Next week we're getting new windows. exciting times.
I'm sure I'm missing something. But we're trying hard to make homesteading a second full time job for Papa. Counting down the days til he can retire and play in the yard everyday.

So exciting! We want chickens, but I have to research more since the winter here spends most of the time at freezing or below. I love that you have HONEY. Brent has talked about bees, but I am pretty scared of them. The fruit trees will be perfect.
