Simple and Rustic

I started this little project planning on decorating the log with some pine, berries or ribbon. It didn't end that way!     You will need tea light candles, a piece of log, a drill, 1 1/2 inch drill bit. We don't have birch trees in our area so I chose to use a piece of sycamore log. Any piece of log will do. 
  This is a very simple project. Just drill as many candles holes as you would like. I chose 3 for the length of log I was using. Drill your holes 1/2 inch deep or as deep as the tea lights candles you are using.
  Insert your tea lights candles. Make sure your log doesn't roll around so you don't spill candle wax everywhere while the candles are burning. My log had a naturally flat side otherwise you can hot glue a couple of small sticks or twigs along the bottom to keep it from rolling.
  In the end, I left it plain and simple and I think it fits right in.

Cute as a Button!

I think we've settled on the name Radar!
He just wants to know if you think he looks like his daddy??

I am so in love with this little guy!

Merry Christmas

and a Happy New Year 
from our house to yours!

He Is Finally Here!!!

On Thanksgiving Day!!!     Meet (insert baby donkey's name here!)      He doesn't have a name yet but he's here!!

First I had Dimple, then I searched high and low for 10 months for a black jennet and finally found Sarah.

I feel like I have waited a lifetime for this little guy.
 
But it was worth the wait! Any name suggestions?

Trail Cams

We have several different trail cams up on our farm.  Just a few of the bucks running around here. We had 4 different boys working this scrape but this was the biggest one.  

Day shot of a big boy.

And a night shot of the same big boy.

These little guys need to learn to get along!  We have numerous pictures of them fighting.

Another big boy at the feeder.  Rack is taller but not as wide.

This is what you get when you mess with the big boys.
