We Built and They Came





Landon helps Keshawn drill some drain holes.

Building the feeder




The feeder almost finished, but working

The second shed for the Alpacas



 Our wonderful friends brought three of our four Alpacas to us, since we do not have a stock trailer yet.  I was so excited!!!!


 My curious Shetland sheep, Amber, greets Natashia, the Alpaca.


 From left to right, Natashia, Allison, and Zeva.  They all have such wonderful fiber!!!


The ram joined us this last weekend, and we can mostly rest until the weather gets warmer now.  Steve and I are so enjoying our little ranch and praying for the LORD’s blessings on it and our new business.

The Little Ranch That Could



My dad said that 5 acres isn’t really big enough to be a “ranch” by Texas standards.  
I had to laugh, because it’s true by anyone’s standards  But our little “Mustard Seed” ranch is dreaming to one day be bigger.  
I am really enjoying my sheep, Amber and Opal.  I can’t wait to finally spin their first fleeces.
We are adding 3 Alpacas in the next few weeks.  That should be fun.
And lately, we have been praying about adding meat sheep as a family side business.  
So, though our ranch is little, it is sure trying to grow bigger.  I like to think of it as our “little ranch that could”.
