Hoofprints in the Virginia Pasture

This is the pasture in front of our colonial style Virginia home. It was about
3 acres and even with 3 and 4 horses grazing all day, still had to be mowed with a riding mower.
In summer, yellow flowers vied for dominance.






If you look closely, you will see Heidi the cat...
I think it only really snowed once during our 3 years, but there was enough to go skiing in the back 300! It was SO beautiful. Jessica and I found a bush with prickly balls completely covered with hoar frost and kept them in the freezer for months just to periodically pull out and feel wonderment again.

Krista, even tho she did not especially like the cold, never let it prevent her from getting in her Billy time. She is wearing her Daddy's (ie:Bill's) old down jacket, 
probably the warmest thing we owned.
