We Are Finally Ready!
We have had such a busy week!
We've mowed and trimmed, weeded and planted,
and cleaned out all the corners of the barns and sheds.
Everything is gleaming... even the outhouse!
Flowers fill every pot...
finishing touches...
so that everything looks perfect and welcoming.
Even the horses are shiny and bright...
with their manes and tails brushed,
and their bridal paths freshly clipped.
We are all in tip top shape for Saturday.
Saturday is our annual open farm day and we are expecting 125 guests.
We will have a cookout and old fashioned farm picnic.
It will be a day of fun, sunshine, good food, clean country air,
animal visits and hayrides.
I'll share lots of pictures on Monday.
Hope you have a great weekend, too!
