Isaac is a big dreamer and Daniel and I are pretty risk averse and always want to have an exit plan before a starting point. It's a constant tug of war between how much is too much risk and how much is us just being scared. Sometimes, our biggest job is bringing Isaac back to reality and sometimes his biggest job is helping us to see and accept his vision. Isaac is good at pulling us out of our comfort zones and pushing us to dream bigger and try harder. Doubling the size of our herd was certainly a combination of Isaac's big dreams and us pushing ourselves way past our comfort zones. When we bought the herd from Colorado last summer, we knew it was going to take a lot more work and a lot of adjustment. A bigger herd, more work, less time and the pressure of having to make this all work in order to pay off the loans has certainly "upped the ante".

AuthorHello! 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. Archives
