good morning guys welcome to today's
video we're just headed out it is so
nice it's cold but it's sunny I just
finished cutting a bunch of grass Sam
does all the main grass with the rotting
lawn more but then there's like all this
little stuff that he can't do so I
haven't done this I just did a different
area let's go put posie Pig down where
she goes come on posie it's actually
warm enough that come on it's actually
warm enough that uh we can actually
spend some time with Sophie's horse
today it's not pouring rain so she's
excited she I think she can share her
with you guys it's been her choice this
whole time but filming in the rain is
never a good choice in you go come on
Ellie come on Ellie look she knows
exactly where she wants to go come on
I'm not going in there so in Goat news
our last baby goat is going to his home
today and that means that all the ones
we have left are ours forever so sad
that I didn't dig up this part of the
garden just planted all my pumpkins in
here but I think I can still come out
here and do it especially like while the
ground is wet I can pull up Bunches of
weeds and clean it out still even though
my pumpkins are growing in there but
with all this rain there's so many weeds
coming like this Garden is going to be a
mess I should have done one of the many
things that I like to do to keep it
weedless but anyways my beans and my
peas are coming it just feels so good to
have Sun come on Ellie
bear don't let me forget to show you
guys my
flowers before the end of this video so
some's going to make the video I don't
know when it's going to come up probably
he'll probably already be up introducing
her horse and telling you guys all about
her like all the things about her that
you need to know and we've been noticing
though that her and honey are the true
friends she always she's like mothering
honey she always be friends the little
one Sophie for sure thinks that she's
had babies before at least AB babies at
least AB babies she's definitely had a
baby you can tell by her utter but she
mothers honey like crazy honey is
calling for her come here honey I loved
the gotic experience it's they are kind
of like puppies you birth them you breed
them you birth them you take care of
them from like 2 months and then they
can go to their new home and that so
it's like super fast compared to like
other breeds that worked really well for
us because I wanted to make sure cuz we
had all boys girls are so much easier to
sell I wanted to make sure that all of
our
boys went to good homes before the
winter there's piggy down there so
finding them all good homes was so
important to me and I'm so glad that it
was pretty fast and painless because
sometimes you get
boys and people just want them for meat
and you definitely want to make sure
that that doesn't happen this girl is
definitely the last one to lose her coat
but that's
normal it takes a while
for for minis especially P like babies
to lose their winter
coat let's just get you all groomed okay
look it you can see her dark coat coming
in there it's underneath this
one I like I like her being the darker
color she really looks so mature from
last year let me show you from behind
that's her that's her 2-year-old self
she's super
cute definitely a brat but she's really
good she works really hard when Sophie
works with her to like figure out what s
she's doing really really well I'm so
proud of her one my friends got a baby a
year before we got honey and basically
we've been comparing notes so she's like
a year ahead of us and according to her
pictures and her notes and her records
Honey's right on track doing all the
same stuff she's holding her own and
she's the best friend of the new girl
like the new girl and her are always
together I saw some comments where
people said oh they're never going to
show her um but we have to we have to
show show her when we're ready like
we're not going to show her film in the
pouring
rain and we're always going to do what's
best for our family it's not a
sin we just share our day every day and
if that means that
we video some things and we don't video
some things and that's okay there's so
many things that you guys don't know
about us and that we don't video that
happened to us day by day when we first
started riding lady when Sophie's first
started riding lady if you put your hand
she would try and Gobble it up she had
no idea how to eat a
treat and now she's just sweet I mean
she was sweet then what she doesn't even
like normal streets all right so yeah I
need to find where I'm going to put her
Bridle Path and start doing that now so
I don't have to do it when
her man comes in when her vlock comes in
so if he's getting her all
ready did she you see that the pig the
pig the pigs are so funny like the thing
that's so funny about posie the thing
that's so funny is that they are so
smart they learn who's friendly and
who's not friendly and they remember it
forever like she doesn't really forget a
single thing is there water in there um
no is it all
Frozen anyway so she's just trying out
lady to see if lady's friendly was Lady
friendly to her when she first came no
no
she looks for Sophie whever Sophie goes
like whenever Sophie disappears she
watches for her she knows Sophie is
hers she knows that Sophie went out that
door and Sophie will be coming back in
that
door you are pretty
cute so Sophie gives her mints and she
eats them and then she gives her horse
treats and she spits them out well she
eats them sometimes she eats them
sometimes but her favorite treat is
mints
mints and then she has such a funny nose
her nose is so long it's so long like
right here from here to here is so long
all right Piggy's locked in here Ellie's
locked in here they can both get out so
I don't know why that reassures me all
right
so are we doing I mean the light's not
bad all right let's go there so she can
eat
okay queens and KS of everything
[Music]
Penny everything
you I've been wondering in the
dark with a cynical faithless
heart I've been watching the kings and
queens caught up in careless dream oh
oh let's see if Willow will let Sophie
get
her oh it is glorious outside today I am
obsessed with sitting in this
field I wish you could take like a big
chair a lounge chair and leave it in
your horse field I would never do it
because I'd be worried my horses will
get hurt but this is like the most
glorious place to
be heart on you
ooh Queen K of
everything
ooh on
You Queen K everything
you I'm the queen and you got the
crown you've been turning me inside
out you keep me saying I'm not breaking
down when I'm with
you
oh you turned up
somebody turn my
love I'll give love to the world I say
true to my word we be queens and kings
of
everything I could gaze at the stars
take my rocket to Mars we be Queens
Kings every
I think that once everything is said and
done and everybody's happy and their
finds their place in the herd I think
she'll be friends with Penny because
Penny just wants to be left alone and
she's kind of like that too she wants
actually she's the opposite she wants
friends but she's not mean unless she
has to be unless she has to be and also
she will just let Penny do her thing and
just leave Penny alone never move to a
place that has a lot of Hills if you're
old storm and Gracie are over there they
can go in this can they go in this field
yeah yep so they're in this field
too then we have this field right here
this little T field that separates them
he really wants to go with the herd but
they're fine together they're not
throwing fits running all over the place
so for a couple more days till they
figure out their
stuff then you guys will move over look
at all these poles though like what
could we do with these
like we could make something with this
firewood firewood Sophie says but I
could do my garden in this
hi they're like we W in well if you were
that yeah if you would be nice you could
just go in but he goes
crazy and then honey Gracie's fine uh
honey or lady really likes Gracie too
she likes Gracie and honey she's a pal
she likes
paminos she's just like you Sophie yeah
these are my panies you guys they're my
favorite flower of all
time and I love the light pink ones but
I really love these dark pink ones too I
love them I'm obsessed with them I might
even cut some we have a ton of them
around the property I might even cut
some and bring them inside the only
thing I don't like about panies is that
they attract a lot of bugs can you guys
see bugs on
everyone Winston is so noisy he's just
like his mom
but you know who's not noisy this little
blonde
boy and he's the guy we're saying
goodbye to look at his little
belly a bug just bit him I saw it land
on him here well here I'll help you
there's bugs all around you here let me
help you look at his belly you guys look
at his belly you see
it you are chunking out he's chunking
out because he's eating the grass I just
saw them they were both sitting down all
three of them were down here eating the
grass but look he's got a
belly oh you got a big belly too hi
anyway we're saying goodbye to this
beautiful boy he is really cute not this
boy he is really cute but I can't just
keep everyone every boy and that means
that we sold all of our goats you guys
all of our goats that we had to
sell enough Sam LED them we did the
switcheroo he led the goats to this door
I came in the other door but anyways
I've had comments made where people said
our barn is dark is Dungy and gross I
Love This Barn you guys my own kind of
do whatever I want Sam and Gabby always
have things to say about the horse barn
like they don't let me kind of run it
but down here I get to run it anyways
lately it's been feeling a bit dark and
Dungey because all of our lights are
burning out somebody told me that these
lights only last for 6 months and it's
basically you can fix something but
basically it's 6 months they've lasted
oh really you know what it's funny that
they're guaranteed for like so many
thousand hours so well 6 months and then
you return it cuz you get another one
the kiss well return it then yeah all
right the problem is find all the
receipts and stuff well if you buy them
online though there's a there's it's
easy so the other one that burnt out is
this one and I don't think I don't think
it's the light I think it's the switch
this weird thing about this Barn is that
these
lights come on and off randomly yeah oh
it was the lights oh it feels so much
better oh that one
too all this time we've been living in
dark there's birds in here they've made
their one here yeah the one in that
stall I'm thinking I might put the pigs
in that stall because it's further from
the door this one yeah that one and the
one in that stall it works oh good what
about in the stall stll this stll is so
dark I don't know I'd
rather we're not using that stll I am
going to use this stll do you only have
one left yeah my friend came for the
first time ever last week to see the
property
and even he said like he loves this
little Barn oh my
gosh amazing so my tack room has gotten
overflowing with stuff I want to take
get all up there if I go up there will
you hand it to me all right pass it up
dude don't know if you're going to get
it because it's
too you doubted
me this one's just dirty here we go
I can organize my shelves now a little
better you're so cute do you guys know
how there's like this feeling you get
when you look at something like when
sometimes when I look at certain
chickens I get this feeling it's like I
don't know how to describe it it's like
I don't know I guess maybe that's what
my dream meant when I look at little
Ziggy that's his name I feel so much
happiness like whenever I look at him I
feel peace inside myself and happiness
inside myself and watching him get used
to these boys and him like becoming part
of our family just makes me so happy
because he's literally the cutest little
thing he's just tiny and so cute you're
just so cute you're going to be the king
of the castle soon the last thing I
wanted to tell you guys about was my
milking journey I wanted to update you
guys I apologize that everybody's out
there crying it's Blossom and her baby
and zigy so about my milking Journey you
guys know I've been sharing all along
that I learned to milk the goats and um
we sold we had three milking goats and I
sold one of them with her baby so that
her baby would have somebody with it
when it went to its new home and the one
I sold was my biggest milker but I had
Tilly and Blossom and Blossom is so easy
to milk she's reliable she gives me a
nice amount of milk not too much not a
lot but a nice amount of milk and I had
Tilly and Tilly gave me a lot of milk
she had triplets they're like don't talk
about the
milk
and I did my best with Tilly like I
brought her out twice a day put her in
the stand and the whole entire time the
whole entire Journey she would kick and
kick and bite and jump and it was just
frustrating for me and it was
frustrating for her and I still didn't
give up the time that um I just kept
thinking to like she's going to figure
it out she's going to figure out that
this is what we do and this is it's
going to be okay and she never did
figure figure it out and every other
goat that I milked figured it out so
much
faster so one day when I went to go in
and get her out of her stall she was
looking at me and she stopped eating she
stopped eating in her stall because she
was worried waiting that I was going to
come and get her out and bring her to
the milking stand and then every time I
would go into the her stall to get her
she would stare at me with her eyes like
she started getting terrified and I just
think like she's not it's not for her
and she doesn't enjoy being milked not
that any of them enjoy it
but it's too hard for me to destroy her
spirit just because I want her milk so I
decided I'm not going to milk Tilly
anymore I'm still going to keep her I'm
still going to keep her I'm still going
to breed her next year because she makes
really nice babies I loved her babies
and I'm going to breed her again this
year at the end of this year uh but I'm
not going to milk her and I'm okay with
that so now I just have one milking goat
until next season but that is a wrap we
sold us every single baby goat that we
had on the farm it was a really fun fast
season I loved it and I'm really excited
to do goats again next year don't you
know that
you're just the way you are just the way
you came don't you know that you're
beautiful
