We have had more snow this year than we have had in quite a few years.  While snow always makes farm life more difficult, it sure adds beauty to a gray winter.  

I always love snow pictures...but I never have many because it is just too darn cold to go outside for a photo shoot.

I have braved the cold a few times for some very short photo opportunities...but it only takes a few minutes for my fingers to go numb and then I can't even use my camera.  ​

    Hello!  I am Heather... the city girl turned mom to manure loving country boys. My husband and I both grew up in the city, but spent weekends visiting grandparents in the country.  We are first generation farmers who learn best by almost always doing things the hard way.  I hope you enjoy following along with our adventures down on the farm.
