Good morning guys. Welcome to today's video.
I wanted to show you guys why I wanted to put
our Christmas tree up so early.
This is my view when I'm sitting on the couch. I have the lights
and then I have the sunrise.
And keep in mind that the camera doesn't even do it justice.
It's like that sky is like red out there.
It's like colors you can't even see in real life.
But yeah, that's why I like to put it up.
I sit right here, read my Bible, and watch the lights,
and watch the sun come up.
I have so many amazing pictures from last winter.
It's beautiful.
Soon as the clocks go back and it's dark in the night,
this weird, eerie, but amazing feeling comes over me.
It's like this twilight.
feeling of coziness, of connection, of I don't know, it's
the weirdest thing, but as soon as those clocks go back in November,
I get this weird feeling. It lasts all the way until January.
In January, we get this huge bright light from the sun.
I don't know why. I don't know the science behind it.
I just know how I feel. I'm really in tune to how I feel.
But Christmas is so cozy for me. This is my little station here.
This is where I sit at night and crochet or do whatever.
So I've been making this little garland.
And it's going to go along the fireplace.
It's actually cuter than it looks right now.
I'll show you.
It's almost done.
I think I have enough bows done.
I just have to sew them together.
But basically...
It's gonna look like that and be really cute.
So that's almost done.
I'll hang that up today.
Think this year, I'm gonna try and get a,
like a wooden basket for the bottom of our tree.
Actually, I don't know if I like that.
I think I won't.
I have a skirt somewhere.
I need to find it and put it under the tree.
But the thing is, I like when the presents are pushed up
underneath all nice and tight,
like behind the Christmas tree
and underneath the Christmas tree.
If you have a basket, the presents have to go all out front.
So I don't know.
I'm going to look and see what they have and I'll figure it out.
It's not done by any means.
So this is my shelf that I was telling you about before.
And usually I have a bunch of Christmas stuff up here
and I have nothing, no Christmas stuff
up here.
This is basically just all the stuff that's important to me.
I have this stuffed Highland cow because that's my dream.
I have my angels.
That's my collection.
I, I collect them when I see them, but I love angels.
Angels are so close to my heart.
And my kids used to buy them for me when I was when they
were little at like the school sale and stuff. So I have those.
I have a Stella Bella. I have some things for my grandkids.
I have some salt lamps. And then I have like a horse.
You can't see but horse things back there too.
Anyway, that's my little shelf.
I don't know if I'll switch it over to Christmas. Maybe I'll make
a garland and hang it across the top of it. I'm not like a huge
Decorator, I don't like a lot of stuff.
I just like a Christmas tree with beautiful white lights and that's it
That's all I need. I just find that I have too much stuff
out Christmas stuff out that it's a lot to put away
It's a lot to put out I get overwhelmed. I just like a nice
simple
Christmas. Hello Anya
What's happening?
I wonder if she wants to be friends with the other cats.
Hey, did you run out of food?
I don't think so. All right
Another blanket cleaned.
I did not think this blanket would come clean and it has some spots
but for the most part it came out pretty good.
She came to get me. Nothing in life feels better
than walking outside your door
and being greeted by animals like nothing. We're coming. There's no
way she doesn't have food.
If she doesn't have food it's because some animal came and ate it.
She's leading us to something. She's so cute. We're here. Come on.
What is it, eh?
What do you need?
What do you need?
You don't have food? Let's see.
Let's see. Well, it's full.
Do you need it to be more full?
You've got lots of food.
Fill it up. It's as full as I can get it.
We have new, another new bag
in the car for you. But yeah,
she has food.
She just needed us to come and be with her.
Look I'm about to walk away and she
she just wants me to stand here with her.
I wonder what happened last night. I feel like I need to
stand here and wait for her. You just needed love?
Is that what it was? You just needed love? My
friend has a cat just like that that that meets her at her house.
She used to walk to her barn. It's
like a bit of a walk and her cat meets her at her house every morning
and walks with her to the barn.
So the thing I like about her,
one of the things I like about her, Posh, is that her
mom was gentle, gentle, sweet.
Really sweet goat, and then she's really sweet.
I love her temperament, she's the best temperament.
When we get babies, when we buy new babies,
I can put her in with them and know that she'll
take care of them and like...
And be kind to them, and I don't know, she's so cute.
She looks like she has spots, but she doesn't.
Oh, my gosh, she could be pregnant.
That's not kind.
This is where you take your life in your hands.
I notice that when I run, they fly after me.
Yeah, if you walk.
I just walk, they just walk.
Yeah.
Well, let's try it and see if it works.
Let's walk.
Go.
Oh.
So I'm sitting in the living room.
I'm trying to finish my garland that I'm making, my Christmas
garland. I'm just sitting there minding my own business.
I have to put my shoes on and this is
what I hear. Just wait, let's see if you can hear it.
I hear it's incessant, incessant. That's what
I hear. I hear this. So then I said, Sam's talking to me.
I said, I have to go. The rooster is calling
me. Yep, he comes on the deck and he calls me and the cat too.
You called? You called. Here, here kitty.
Some for you here.
But yeah, they call me, so I go through the fridge.
Oh, Matt.
What are you doing?
I go through the fridge.
I find anything that I can find that's meat,
protein, sometimes noodles.
I just throw it out there for them.
They're so sweet.
But imagine just sitting in your house
and all of a sudden your animals call you.
I just love it.
I don't know, you guys.
I'm obsessed.
I just
love it.
I just love it.
It's like they need me.
They want me.
I feel needed.
I wish that the way our house was set up
was that the goats could be out here calling me
like I just love it anyways washed
the last blanket today Sophie will be happy
let me show you so this is it it's
a honey's blanket it had two holes so I sewed one there
and then this was a big hole
and it looked horrific like I was just gonna toss this blanket
She wanted me to sew it because she didn't want,
Honey doesn't need a blanket, so she
wanted me to sew it in case she just wanted to use it one day.
And it literally came out so good.
I washed it.
It's perfect.
Here's a weird thing about me.
I like doing crafts, but I'm not good at crafts.
It's because of my ADHD.
I don't have patience to sit for a long time.
So I just like things that I can do quickly.
all right so I want you to cut me
this wood I want it like cut it to the knuckle there and
cut it off here so so wait yeah
and then there that's pretty small
are you sure yeah and then
I collected all this I collected all this wood
so then I'm gonna make a tree so then I want the
next piece like three quarters of the there
with the bigger why can't it be all right do a bigger
one on the bottom then I don't I don't want it huge huge
but yeah that would be good
This one? Yeah a little bit bigger.
All right that's fine. All right so we're just gonna
build a tree. So look so then one a little bit smaller than this one
or you could even do one in the middle
because that one's a bit small. So like that one. Crooked?
Yeah too crooked. I'd like you to cut the knots off if you can.
All right so now I'm going to
leave it with you and I'm going to be surprised.
I need like eight to ten so it tapers off.
And then I'm going to put, yeah, that's cute.
I like it.
I'll show you guys what it's going to look like.
I think I just stepped in chicken poo.
That's why you don't feed the chickens here.
Yeah, I just stepped in chicken poo.
And chicken poo is nasty.
It stinks.
All right, it's not hung up completely yet,
but that's what it's going to look like.
See how cute it is?
I have to get Sam to hang it up.
I don't know how to hang that stuff up.
It's little bows.
So adorable, I crocheted them, yep.
And then I have a bunch of bows that I crocheted in here
that I have to put on the tree.
I just don't know how to do it.
Like I need to get, I'm just gonna use like some yarn,
but it will look like that.
And then it'll be on like that.
So I'm gonna do that tonight.
So look at this, Sophie.
This is the craft I'm gonna make.
Pumpkin, look, can I throw the pumpkin?
Yeah, as long as you put it, throw it in the woods.
I want to throw as far as I can.
Alright, you guys watch, hopefully.
It's not going to go very far.
And there it goes.
There goes the cat.
Okay, but look at it.
It's going to be so pretty.
I'll show you guys a picture of what I'm going to make it into,
like how I'm going to decorate it.
But the problem is, is that the craft
that I'm following on Instagram is like, um...
AI craft, it should be like that, so oh I like it better
with one, yeah I like it better with one, one is way nicer yeah
exactly anyway I'm gonna like put a stick nail these all to a stick
and then I'm gonna decorate
like leave a space between each of them
and I'm gonna stuff it with like
greenery and flowers and stuff it's gonna be so cute
I was outside earlier
and one of our goats was at the gate at the fence screaming in heat.
They're screaming. So I'm going to see if Sophie can guess who it is.
Sophie's no fun. She doesn't want
to guess. All right guess one time and I'll tell you if you're right.
What did you say? Yes you're
right. So we're reading her to him. Literally a magical barn.
I left this morning and we were down
to two bales of hay on the bottom. Refreshed.
Isn't that magic? You know you have a good husband
if you have magic that happens in your farm
Look at this. Even our green bucket filled themselves.
She's up at the house working
on my craft. We come back down and all my buckets are full.
Oh my gosh. She's standing really good
right now. I was literally in the pigs making their bed
and Sophie said come quick and I was
like oh my god. I go running as fast as I can.
She wanted me to see how cute our goat looks. She looks
really nice right now. Yeah.
Like she's standing like how I would be posing. Yeah you are cute.
Little Pippa.
Alright, so it's Cinderella that I suspect is in a raging heat.
I don't know, but I think she is.
We're still in the barn.
It's taking forever tonight, but look at this.
He's all tucked in, and I don't know where Posey is.
Hopefully she's in there.
Posey?
She's not in there.
Where is she?
So we put them together,
and they're eating the leftover of Oakley's food.
Did you see Posey in there?
She doesn't, I don't know.
She's pretty big.
Like, you would see a bump.
I have to go in and make sure.
I mean maybe she's right. Oh there she is.
Oh my gosh she was right beside him. Sorry Posey I wrecked
your nice cozy bed.
She didn't stand for him so we called it quits.
Get in there. He's like I'm home
boys.
Don't you know that you're beautiful?
Just the way you are.
