Our new house


As they say in Zaboomafoo, "We are going on an a big adventure and we don't know what's in store!" We are going to buy this farmhouse and a chunk of the farm. It is out in the middle of nowhere, but only 5 minutes from my work. We decided that we might want to try the farm life after we spent all of our Saturdays at Prophetstown state park, a living history farm north of Lafayette. So we are going to try it out for ourselves. The girls have been making a list of animals to get:

cat, to catch the mice, rats, moles, etc.

dog, to chase the cat, etc,

horse - actually may be a possibility, the Nefs, from church, have 11 horses and need somewhere to board a few,

chickens, of course,

goats, we are not so sure,

giraffes, elephants, hippos, all possible zoo animals.

Any suggestions? Posted by Picasa
