All wrapped up in a bow!

Truffles little caramel girl is looking for her FURever family.  She is ready for her new home now.
What if I get all dressed up in ribbons? 
All wrapped up in a bow! 
Do you think I look cute? 
You do?!!! 
Thank you! 
This chair seems awfully empty 
Do you think someone will come share it with me? 
I will give extra cuddles! 
I will even put a flower in my hair 
Maybe my new family will love all my puppy kisses 
Smooch! 
I am a good puppy...I come when I am called 
I like to play outside 
and I will never leave your side! 
Do you want to play with me? 
I am keeping an ear out for news of a furever family!

Garden Veggie Soup Day!

Today's garden harvest chore was Veggie Soup!  Mr. Yesteryear Acres loves garden fresh vegetable soup so our older daughter worked on making a giant stockpot full of his favorite soup.
First up - slow roast beef and onions 
Then prepare all the veggies for the soup 
Can't forget lots of zucchini! 
Then it is time to add everything to the beef 
Last addition - fresh crushed tomatoes 
A few hours later...Garden Veggie Soup!
16 Quarts ready for the freezer
We will have garden deliciousness all winter long!

A little bit of shedding...A Lot of Love

We have a little caramel girl available from Truffles Double Doodle litter and she is ready for her new home this weekend. Ms. Peacock Collar girl has a shorter "Wash and Go" type coat so her family decided to pass on bringing her home and decided to wait for a Scout Goldendoodle puppy instead. Ms. Peacock girl will eventually have a shaggy coat and she may have some shedding as an adult.
Ms. Peacock is getting really good at potty training 
and always goes outside when we take her out 
She comes when she is called  
But most of all...... 
She loves cuddling 
and taking naps in our arms 
and is just the best snuggle buddy! 
She is looking for her FURever family and can go home this Saturday.
