Bucking Bronco

So I feel like a broken record when it comes to our crazy dogs but I believe this video will shed some light on life with "the boys!" Welcome to my world...

Our Farm


Picking blueberries, our faves!



The scenery is just so beautiful with farms and even wineries all around the area.


One of the very best things about living right where we live is our close proximity to DC on the one hand (thriving interesting city full of action etc) and a beautiful rural area on the other. 45 minutes one direction and you hit our nation's capital, 45 minutes in the opposite direction and you hit farm land. Yes, I know I go on and on about this but I just think it is perfect! We joined a CSA farm this year called Great Country Farms (they are already wait listed for next season so if you are interested check it out ASAP!) and it has been one of the best things we have ever invested in. Tons of great produce, both fruits and vegetables, and a farm to call our own! We go out every weekend to pick up our share, see the farm animals, and pick whatever is available (blueberries, blackberries, peaches, edemame, potatoes, etc). Jameson adores it and definitely prefers the food we get there, especially if he aided in the gathering of it. Here are some pictures we have taken this year~now go out and support your local farmers!!



They have tons of slides and things to
jump on/play with etc all over the farm.



Jameson would eat the blackberries as fast as he could pick them, even the ones that were still red, and he'd say "ummmm" after every bite no matter how tart!
