Devin is busy crafting, but I hope she will make time to cut three of the boys' hair. Jeff is doing some of his home business work this morning and will be taking our new-to-us Yukon XL in for an oil and filter change after breakfast. The boys will help with some of the indoor chores and then move outside to clean up some leaves and trash and I hope Kaelan will be a willing sous chef with me in the kitchen. Many hands make light work....or at least make the work easier to manage!!
I think that's more than enough for today! What's on your to do list this Saturday after Thanksgiving?

Eating leftovers, laundry, recovering from a nasty cold, playing games with the kids and hopefully a nap while UT beats Kentucky.
Anita- I've been following your homesteading and am quite impressed! We live in the city and have dabbled here and there, mainly with gardening. My family has lots of land, but it's all 50 minutes + from town. My dad is semi-retired from practicing law and my folks have been saying for a couple of years now that they're going into the cattle business. My husband and I are excited to raise our own beef. We've also wondered how chickens would do out there. Do you have to collect eggs every single day? I wonder if we could build a shelter that would protect them from coyotes, wild pigs, etc? We do have donkeys and I've heard they can be protective? We have a lot to learn and don't want to live out there, so that makes it tough. What do you advise? Also, do you think wild pig would be ok to eat? I know lots of people do eat it, but I've heard it tastes "gamey". I'm afraid I'm not very brave.
Thanks,
Celee
