Changin' the blog name!!

Pretty soon, I'm hoping to change the blog's name...we're officially in the process of buying 22 acres of land that lies about 15 minutes east of our home. We'll still be living and working here on this one acre, but the extra land will allow us additional opportunities...including a place for our horses! Our two horses now live about 2 hours away at my in-laws' 7 acres and we're looking forward to being able to ride them more. In addition, the acreage has two ponds...one is already stocked with Bass! We'll also be raising at least one beef steer on the acreage to supply our beef and hope to add an area appropriate for a pig as well. With time, I'd love to try some milk goats! We haven't closed on it yet, and I'm trying not to get too excited until it's all official...ya'll know about all the craziness that can happen between the acceptance of an offer and closing!
