Homemade Butter

Well we bought some heavy cream,got out 2 mason jars and shook and shook and shook!!! Well it turned into butter!!! So we did it.We made our own butter.It taste so good.I can not wait to but it on fresh bread tomorrow.

Other than that we are waiting on the house still.We went back out there today and I still love it just as much as I did day one.The realtor told us that we are still the only ones who have put an offer in.He has shown it to many people but no one can afford to make an offer with the repairs it needs as well as most banks wont lend on one that needs a new roof.So we are still praying that they come down to our price soon,we really want o get started working on it.

Barry is coming up next week to stay for a while.He is hoping we can get closed on the house while he is here to help Fred work on the roof.
Please pray for us to get this house soon.

Missing a garden

I am really missing a garden this year. We did not plant anything because we really thought we would be in our "OWN" home by now.But GOD has other plans for us. We are waiting on the home we would like to come down.I see other post about gardens and chickens and such and I so miss mine!!! I know that all good things comes to those that wait,but the LORD knows I am NOT good at waiting.Maybe that is what he is trying to teach me,more patients. lol
I know next year we will be able to grow our own food. I also know that as long as we get in the house before winter we will be able to get our chickens and have fresh eggs.

We found a house

Yes we found a house we love!!! It is not in Montana as we thought it would be, it is not 20 ac. like we thought it would be.It is however a really pretty house on almost 5 ac. has a creek in the back. We do love Kentucky and think this is where we will be staying for a long time!
We are now in the offer game with the bank as this is a foreclosure home. We know what we are willing to go up to and we know they will come down it is just a matter of waiting them out.I am not good at waiting!!!! So this is a test for me I am sure.
We already know where we are going to put the chickens and a goat.The kids can not wait to get out there. I so hope that we can close before June. SO please pray that we can get it all worked out!
