First, the hens enjoying some fresh clover (they think it's crack):
The vineyard, all cleaned up:
Part of the back yard after a tree trim and a fresh mow:
The new dog run, what a treat! The dirt patch is where the old run used to stop, there were plants and rocks there that I moved to the side:
The new deck, with view on some of the freshly-cleared paddocks:
Vegas enjoying a puppy kiss, mmmm mmm!
Yey the big guy is down, let me at him!
Daddy loves his little boy:
In a few months this scene will be quite different, size-wise! LOL
The beginnings of a great friendship... Maika is slooowly warming up to her little bro!
Yep, a working breed starts very young... Dante LOVES "helping" me clear the gardens!
Dakotah showing off his grasshopper skills - amazing to see after such a big knee surgery a year ago, eh? We call him the bionic dog, ha ha!
Happy family in the green... You couldn't pay us to ever live in the freaking city again!
Dante a few days shy of 10 weeks old, weighing approx. 23 lbs. He's small but he's heavy!
How could you not love this happy mug?
Hope you enjoyed the pics as much as I enjoyed taking them and sharing them with you - I'll post more later this month as the renos come along!Today Vegas is working in the city so I'm helping the contractor set up the new paddock perimeters, the horse shelter should be up this week so finally that French twat can stop harassing me about stuff. All that for a measly $100 a month - she's got issues, I tell you.
Don't. Disrespect. The. Doll.
Happy Hump Day, everyone!

I can't get over those hens. They're beautiful and unusual. Everything is so beautiful! The deck looks amazing, you did such a good job.
That picture of Dante running with the stick is so cute, I can't even believe it.
Good shots! Thank you for sharing.
The pictures are FABULOUS. And Dants is just so darn cute - running w/the stick . . . *melts*

Happy Wednesday.
So the vineyard's ready, eh? How soon can I start ordering wine from you guys?
Katie, I'm glad you like it! We're pretty proud of how things are coming along and I'm enamoured with those hens, they've got great personalities too :)
Kathryn, yeah he's cute and makes the funniest faces! Lots of yard work still to do but the worst is done, thank goodness. Now we enjoy :)
Frank, we're not getting any grapes this year as the vines are still too young... but next year should be good. I'll keep you posted!
Um ok I've already picked out my spot on the deck where we are going to sip lemonade and chat and catch up, ok?
I'm officially jealous.

Daring, yes the big doggies love it but I think they're bored... no more millions of city smells to occupy their little brains, LOL! Ah well. They'll have to get used to it :)
