Let's Get Started!

Our first ever blog post! Yay! The property has been bought, the house is in the process of being fixed, and we are slowly developing a routine. Red Hollow Farm is well under way! There is still a lot of work to be done, but the foundation has been laid to start our new life. Starting the new year by moving into our new house makes 2015 all the more welcome. We've been moving furniture, unpacking boxes, and buying A LOT of paint samples. Our rather large family room has become the main headquarters for anything we do (the cozy fire place makes it even better). This week we have received eight chickens! They have provided us with six eggs already! We decided not to get a rooster (they're so obnoxious!) so we will probably get a farm dog to protect the chickens. We also ordered bees that are due to arrive the beginning of March. Just to provide you with an idea of what the property looks like, here are some pictures! 

 
 This is right behind the house. It's a little area with a pool that's been filled in. We have our chicken coop in there as well as that little shed you can see. 
 
 This is our side yard. We have a eight plum trees on that side of the house. 
This is back behind the "pool" area. It leads back behind the property. 
This is further back into the property. It is part of a fork in the path that comes back together shortly. 
This is the other part of the fork in the road. There is a whole other shed back there that you can see in the picture, with a little covered space on the other side. 
 We also have this little creek running along our property! I see muddy kids playing in this during the summers. 
 
 These are two GIANT chestnut trees in the front of the house.  

 
 And finally we have the front of the house. Thank you so much to all the people who have helped us move into our new home. Can't wait to see what the Lord has for us next week! 

                    Love,
                         The Deans

Sweet things! These baby bunnies are the cutest. We still have three that are surviving. We lost yet another litter but this time the mother...
