Been busy

I know I've been away from the blog for a little over a month now, but we've been pretty busy lately. Aside from working on the farm we have two other houses that we're trying to fix up so we can get them on the market to sell. As far as the farm goes the vegetables and trees are doing beautifully although we lost our avocado tree do to too much water last month. Our strawberries are pretty much finished for the year and our tomatoes are out of control with their production. The herbs are still doing very well and the mint has exploded and is growing faster than I can clip it back. We've produced the best tasting squash and have watermelons still on the vine. 

We also have two does that frequent the property, twitchy and peanut. Peanut likes to graze through the garden from time to time and just today I figured out why we hadn't seen much of twitchy in a while. Twitchy is a momma. I was watching some survailance video from our cameras and saw twitchy grazing through the front tree line and noticed something following her. Well at first I thought it was a smallish dog stalking her, the footage isn't that great, until she crossed our driveway and a few seconds later this cute little fawn jumps out of the tall grass plays in the driveway for a second or two and playfully runs off after twitchy. Sky and I decided that the new baby is to be called sprite since she seemed to be so playful.
