So cute, the dog looks like he might have had a nip or two out of those little kegs they carry round their necks. HA

Congrats... on your farm ain't it wonderful???
I just bought mine also and I am moving in little by little what fun and work also. What is it about farms that is so peaceful? It is like I have always lived here, could it be?

If you find a way to get rid of the pigeons let me know too, I have them in my barn and they are dropping all over everything

Quick update- Today Minnesota is enjoying 40 mph wind gusts. The good news is I can't feel them inside the farm house. So I am very excited that there are no big drafts which is quite unusual for a house this old.

Well hello and greetings farmgirls! I am now completely moved in to the farm. Eventhough there are boxes everywhere, it feels like home. My family and in-laws love being here. It is so peaceful. Absolute bliss. I am busy getting everything outside prepared for winter. there is the well to board up and insulate, the gardens to cover with a heap of leaves and hay, and many toys to be stored. And I have found my camera and will get some new pictures taken this week. I am now planning where all my Christmas decor will go, and starting on some old projects I need to finish post haste, like the scarf I have been knitting for the last 6 weeks!

Ok here's an update on the big move. Friday night we rented what I believe to be the smallest U-haul ever. We started loading that night and then went to bed around 10pm. The next day we loaded, unloeaded, loaded, unloaded... you get the idea. We had to pause to go to my 15 yr old sona confirmation dinner(yes.. I didn't have to cook!!!) then it was back to work. We finished at around 9:30 pm and went to settle into our new home... but... somehow the water didn't work. So out to the pump house we all went, looked down into a 15 foot drop where the well is located and deciced to wait til the morning.. everyone would have to find their own tree. Sunday rolled around , thankfully with an extra hour of sleep!, and we finished with all the little stuff. We are now blissfully in our farm home and loving it. I will post pics asap.

So here we are on Thursday and I am still moving stuff. The furniture and final belongings will be in on Saturday. The more I say it the more I beleive it. Not only do I have to move a 6 person household but I also have to pick up my son in the city on Saturday morning, take my 9 year old to a Halloween 5K run at noon, go to my oldest sons confirmation dinner at 5 and make it to a Varsity football playoff game by 7. So when I say it more then I beleive it more. Somehow it will be done. And yes girls I will get more pictures. I promise, if I can think rationally by Monday....

Beth many blessings and much happiness with the new property. I agree with Jeannie about the pattern on the silo being scandinavian, it definitely isn't "plain" like the Amish and Mennonite Farms of Lancaster County, Pa. A hex sign would usually be circular and have a meaning (fertilty, prosperity, etc) and meant as a good luck symbol.
Your house looks great and I love all the (oak?) woodwork. I have those same french doors that we salvaged from a house that was modernizing! All the best and keep those pics and updates flowing!
with a happy heart |

What a beautiful house and barn you have! Thanks so much for sharing the pictures. I esp. like the little oval window at the front of the house. Very pretty.
