Well...I guess I'm blogging!

Well, I don't know too much about computers or blogging. But I do know that I LOVE to read the blogs of others. So, I thought, why not give it a shot myself?? I'm calling this blog "TaterHill Happenings". As most of you know, our "farm name" is TaterHill Kennel and Hobby Farm. We came up with that name since we live at the base of TaterHill Mountain in South Carolina.

So....TaterHill Happenings.....I figure this name will cover a large umbrella of what I may blog about. OF COURSE, many blogs will pertain to the animals we have here. While others may pertain to Bobby and I's personal life. OH and of course.....Baby Connor....who should be making his way into the world around April 28th!!

I know that most of the blogs that I read pertain to a certain topic each day. I'm not sure that will be my aim. I am more interested in "keeping in touch" with family that is not near.

So let's begin.................Some of you may know while others may not...I am now a full time stay at home housewife. I stopped teaching at the children's home a few months ago. Mainly because I was too stressed with trying to fulfill those duties, keep up with my house, serve my husband as I should, and keep the TaterHill business going. Often, my mom asks "What do you do all day?" since I'm not "working". Well, let me say I stay very very busy. Here is the run down of the animals we have now:
12 English Springer Spaniels (that doesn't include the 13 puppies we have right now)(Cheyenne, Greta, Jack, Buddy, Nikki, Gabby, Jeannie, Montana, Rissa, Mollie, Calla, and Freddie)
1 Beagle (Tater)
1 Cocker Spaniel (Jesse)
1 Shih Tzu (Maddie Doodles!!!)
1 Great Pyrenees (Biggun)
9 Pygmy Goats (Mirage, Connie, Rose, Zoe, Breeze, Solomon, David, and 2 unnamed....these 2 leave this weekend for their new homes)
2 Hampshire Sheep (Never really decided on names for them)
1 Pot Bellied Pig (Sophia)
7 Mini Lop Rabbits (Chester, Pixie, Trigger, Simone, Samson, Ginger, and Olivia)
7 Lionhead Rabbits (Dreamy, Lucky, Half Pint, Dot, Peaches, Chin Man, and Mocha Joe)
2 Netherland Dwarfs (Bobby never named them)
2 Georgia Cottontails (Used to train beagles...never named)
1 Cat (Penelope).....For those of you who knew of our cat, Elvis, he unfortunately was hit by a car a couple of weeks ago.
LOTS of free range chickens.

So as you can see.....I have plenty to keep me busy! I absolutely love being home during the day! Who would have thought that I would enjoy being a housewife?? ha ha
