Savannah's big Catfish


Yesterday was a big day for us even for a Sunday. Beside church, small group, a birthday slip and a slide party, Savannah and a friend of hers managed to land the biggest fish ever caught in our pond! It was a huge catfish and they had to fight hard and as a team to get him in. Savannah hooked him but quickly saw that a net would be needed to get him in so she sent her friend to get the net. And they persevered and got it in and soon it will be dinner. There are several things I need to get on this blog but none as exciting as this big giant. Great job girls!

Welcome!

Welcome to our family blog. We have a small (55 acres) farm and are attempting to raise beef cattle, some hay, laying hens, honey bees, a dog and a small garden. We also have a small pond that has fish in it but they pretty much raise themselves.The Twenty-eight eleven is the name of our farm. It comes from Deutronomy 28:11 which reads: "The LORD will make you abound in prosperity, in the offspring of your body and in the offspring of your beast and in the produce of your ground in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you." We count on God's blessings for our life as we know it so we thought it appropriate to go ahead and give Him all the glory for anything good that we produce, be it crops, cows, or children. This blog will be a fun project for us to document what is going on at our farm and hopefully share some natural ways of farming along the way (as we learn too).
