Peaches and Goats
On Monday we processed some peaches we brought back from Fredericksburg. This year we got some really good peaches. Last year when we went and visited the wildflower farm there we got some peaches that weren't as good but we still enjoyed them. Here are the peaches when we started:
Here they are all skinned and sliced up and ready to be canned:
We got 6 full pints to process in the water bath.
The children really liked the fresh peaches and are looking forward to eating the preserved peaches:
A special thanks to Tracy. She helped me get the peaches ready to can and while I was finishing the peaches she prepared the supper I had planned. After the sermon that evening I came back and canned the peaches.
We also got 2 new goats on Sunday.
The tan goat we got from Mr. Woods and the one in the background we got from the Siffords and it is the brother of the one the Antes got. No official names yet, we are still deciding.
Y'all please pray for Michael, Chris and Joseph to have a safe trip and that all goes well at the ranch while they are gone AND that we get some rain!
In Christ,
Danielle

YUM! Those peaches look great!
Peace, Kris
Praise the Lord for the rain you got. Hope there's more. Those peaches look very tasty.
Hi Danielle,
Well, here on the last day of June, sounds like the trip is going well for the guys, and now you've gotten alot of rain...praise God for His provision and answered prayers!
Pray all else is going well for you and the children.

P.S. Speaking of peaches (they look great!) some homemade peach ice cream sounds good about now! :-) we're finally getting some Texas type summer temps here in BC.
Danielle,
I just found your blog through Michael's, where I have been reading of late. How wonderful to read your everyday life! You are an inspiration as you experience new things while learning old skills.
This places you in the Titus 2 catagory, teaching the abiltiy to be keepers-at-home, I believe. If you would pass along some actual recipes and processes that teach others (like me) how to take the plunge into off-gird survival, it would be a generous blessing!
Your children are beautiful and your account of your every day life beautiful also. I will be returning for more as you post.
Peace to you,
Teresa (in KY)
