The newest batch of piglets came last evening, of course she chose to have them in the late evening. She ended up having a total of 9 piglets this time. I believe 5 males and 4 females, they are the most colorful litter we have had to day, pink, black and whites, red and whites, pink with black spots, a rainbow of colors. The last of my baby goats were born this week so all my mommas are done for the season. It looks like the piglets are all good healthy babies, I think we missed the date for the 4-h piglets by about 2 weeks but not sure. Not exactly sure when they have to have been born, I do think they are definitely the right age for the Sanders County fair though.
We saw a special this week on laminate flooring so we broke down, or were blessed to buy enough for the front room and dining room, basically all are main living room, hall, and maybe just maybe both bathrooms. It is a nice color that really nicely matches my cupboards. We are hoping to paint and put in flooring next week while the Ladies are one spring break. Off to get ready for Church. Love our new family in the Lord and can't wait to go. I made the Ladies and the Grandladies dresses yesterday, they are mostly done, they were just sew togethers. I have the straps to do but I think there ended up being 17, so a good days works anyway... tomorrow.
The day to day living of a family on a rural Montana hobby farm, stories of goats, piglets, sourdough bread making, cheese making, soap making and the general raising of two little girls, their three older adult siblings, and the loving of our 10 grandkids. The story of a 36 year marriage with it's ups and downs. We worship God with reverence and are truly blessed for being his beloved children.
