Our Next Adventure

We have butchered our own chickens and grown our own produce - but tonight we harvested our first game from the farm! Well, Jason and my dad did.  They decided that it would be a perfect night to test out the farm land.  I guess they were right. They got a goose after being out their for only a few minutes.

We have been watching flocks of geese land in the field next door for just over a week now.  A little back story might be nice - We leased out some the land to another farmer b/c we were not capable of doing anything with it just yet and he planted corn.  It was cut a week and a half ago. Since it has been cut we have gotten to watch five deer play, one fat skunk, someones black cat and LOTS of geese.



Tomorrow I get to figure out how to cook a goose!

Our girls found the goose very interesting. Lu-Lu was fasinated with the web feet.  She did say that she was not going to eat it, because she did not eat geeses. I remember her saying something along those same lines when we butchered chickens.
