Life on #129acres

This clover made numerous bales of hay this year. Now it's covered in frost as another season has ended. But we know the warmth and the rain will return and it will grow again. . . . #lifegoeson #circleoflife #farm #field #countrylife #countryliving

9 months old. Finally sitting on her tractor (though we have to do some lessons about keeping both hands on the wheel). Learned to clap and thinks it's the best. Has fun practicing all of her sounds, including coughs, clicks and spits. Loves straps, cords, cables and ties. Loves all food and wants to eat all the time. Still only 2 teeth and still only rolling. Who needs to crawl when you have a tractor? . . . #babygirl #baby #farmgirl #tractor #9monthsold

My favourite sequence from our family photo shoot this fall. The dog sat behind the photographer for awhile, and then he slowly moved closer and closer. Until, “This sitting on the driveway thing is weird, but if this is what we’re doing, okay.” Matt’s facial expression is so natural and so happy. My attempt to lay my head on his shoulder is not at all natural. Everybody takes their turn looking at the camera until we finally all get it right. Thanks to Ashley at @onelovestoryphoto for capturing our fun little crew so accurately. . . . #familyphoto #dogsofinstagram #instadog

Living in the country is so special. Our afternoon walk took us across the fields, along trails, under trees. We investigated animal tracks and possible dens. We enjoyed the snow and sunshine. I can never take this place for granted. . . . #countryliving #countrylife #farm #farmlife #snow #milkweed #fall

We booked a family photo shoot this fall, and it ended up being one of my favourite projects that we’ve ever done at the farm. We got so many special photos, including a few of the whole family, complete with the dog and the cat. These photos are something I know we will always treasure. It is so special to mark this time in our lives and have this record of all of us together. Thanks to our photographer Ashley at @onelovestoryphoto. . . . #familyphotos #farmlife

The conversation started with "So we hear you need some people to climb some ladders." That led to four cousins showing up at the farm this morning ready to climb some very, very high ladders to help repair the siding all around the barn (ropes and climbing harnesses were also used). Love that we have such generous helpful family supporting us all the time. . . . #family #farm #countrylife #countryliving #barn #diy #farm #farmlife
