Been a little while since I have done any updates or posted anything. Time can sure get away with me. I told myself, if I started another blog, I would try and stick with it and keep up with all that goes on the farm. Well I'm already behind. Fall is almost here and things are slowly starting to slow down and maybe, I will have more time. So what have we been up to lately. NBHA horse show for one. Hannah and Cowboy have been doing so good this year after almost a whole year off from barrel racing. Back about this time last year, Hannah was play softball and she tore her acl and had to have surgery in November. Well, that meant 6 mos of no riding. Longest she has probably went since she was little.
Then she ended up working a new job and it was all weekends, that knocked her out of NBHA shows. But she finally was able to get back into it and they had earned enough points to qualify for NBHA Youth World Championship in Perry GA. Well her and cowboy placed 4th in 4d. Pretty good, out of 44 states and 7 countries. Over 1,200 kids from all over competing in it. She was a very happy young lady.
Well our garden was taken over by the deer this year so we didn't have any green beans or tomatoes. I really wanted to can tomato juice this year but oh well, I will plan better for next year. We do plan on building a fence around our garden area before we plant again. We should have done it years ago but kept putting it off. I did however get to can green beans, my brother in law had some and he let us pick some for canning. I did get corn from my garden and was able to can corn.
Well, it is getting late and I have to be up early in the morning to take Sam to the hospital for some testing. So I will do this in a couple different parts to catch everyone up with what has been going. I have a whole lot more canning to share and we have more goats. I have some recipes I want to share, as well.
