Hot water


Yes, we finally have hot water in our home.  Washing dishes is easier and a warm bath in
the tub is very nice.  We have been at our new property for 7 weeks.  The first 2 weeks we didn't have water, so bucket by bucket from the well down the slight hill...it all makes me appreciate everything!

The chicks are growing quickly.  They are about 2 months old now.  Below, you can see the main house which needs a lot of interior work.  We had a new roof put on!

The nuns at the skete nearby gave us swiss chard from their garden.  I chopped it up + sauteed it with butter and it was delicious!
These boots have been great since we had a lot of rain and now mud.
My mom is coming to visit again!

Children holding chickens -- the sight is so dear to me!

You all will love every little thing about your new homestead all the more, having waited for water, hot water, a roof, etc etc. You are stalwart!

What a huge blessing! I take our out-of-the-tap steaming water for granted so often.
