The HARSH realities of farm life in Portugal

- Sometimes life on a farm in Portugal brings us closer to the harsh realities of Mother Nature, and this week is one of those weeks when homesteading just feels a little bit hard. We welcomed our first clutch of chicks, but sadly it wasn't all good news, and there was a fair amount of heartache involved.
Here’s the link to the courgette bread recipe I used anoregoncottag...

hello beautiful people...I do not see the courgette bread recipe, which I would like to make too. If you please wright it on or give us the link. Thank you. PS. You could try to put the swab and fix it on the chicken leg, like we all do with injured bird.
Grated courgette freezes well which can be added to many dishes.
I wonder what Joao is studying at University. Whatever his plans for the future, he is already a kind, patient, knowledgeable, well rounded individual.
It’s impressive that you’re able to put out TWO half hour videos a week! Thank you. 😊
Thanks Alan, we are trying our best to put out great quality videos for you so we are so happy to hear that you are enjoying them! 🐣❤️
Vloggers have to be consistant if relying on you tube income from the vlogs... technically this is their job which involves recording daily activities to share with the viewing public. 😊
Go to an animal doctor!!!
@@tootsieb11 exactly. It’s their schedule that blows me away. ✌️
Love It!
Sorry for the loss of the little chick, I just love Crusoe getting you a box for him or her. Just got to love the boys helping with the baking ❤
Thanks Faith 🐥💔😢
😢 hugs sad to l9sse any animal
@@faithvansanden82 the boys are just adorable working with dad or mom macking memories that will last a life time!🐝
Sawyer has come on leaps and bounds! He’s so like his brother was at that age ❤️
❤️❤️
Looking at over 40 years of having hens, and raising chicks, we learned that:
* Bantam hens make better Mums (so we’d put the eggs from the other hens under them when they got broody)
* separating Mama hen and the chicks from the rest of the coop worked a lot better (the babies didn’t get harassed as much. When they were a few weeks old we’d let them out to scratch free range with the others)
*the breed “Sussex” hens were clumsy as Mums, and would often squash/stand on their babies as they hatched and during first week or so, leaving us with less babies.
Fabulous tips, Love It!
Had a lot of hens too. And there are good moms and there are bad moms. Like with humans. And yes one breed is better than the other. But don't touch the little o es when they are just hatched and put them separately... always did that. And here when it was still a bit chill they got themselves in one part of the box a heat lamp. (Bx is 2 by 2 meter. And I totally agreed that you can put eggs from one hen under a other hen... 😂. They aren't even co fused...
Thanks so much for sharing what you have learned Sheree 🐣❤️
You two are so sweet!! As I've said before, the world is a better place with you ALL in it.
Thank you so so much friend! ❤️🙏🏼
So pleased you acknowledged the connection between these sentient beings and food. Most people like to ignore the pain their food goes through before it gets to the plate.
That’s nature. It’s good for the boys to experience the happy and sad. Love watching your videos!
You are right Betsy, it is good for the boys to see the ups and downs of farm life. Thanks so much for watching 🐥💔😢
Sawyer is really starting to get involved, speaking better, and wants to do everything his brother does. Precious
He is really getting more involved now and we love to see it too Rick ❤️❤️
My son ( about 11 at the time)lovingly nursed his clucky hen and her eggs. On the exciting day he arrived in the house with 5 fluffy chicks, our Labrador slurped them from his hand and swallowed them whole. There were very many tears that day and brutal lessons learned. Farming can be harsh but the rewards are momentous too!
Oh no Nicola! That is terrible, we are so sorry to hear that. It is a very hard lesson 🐥💔😢
The poor boy. Seeing the slurpy ~Scene 😳oh my ,,
@@nicolarourke7981 omg your son must have been completely shocked very sad! Dogs can't control the instinct to eat!🐝
...how lucky Crusoe and Sawyer having such a hardworking,,loving,, optimistic parents..Tara and John..hats off to both of you #TheAmazingNewbys
We have a small whatsapp group where I post videos once a month about our farm adventures. How you manage filming, parenting, farming, renovating and remaining sane is beyond me! You are just amazing. As homesteaders we are always battling something, usually weather, animals and maintenance are the main culprits. The boys are growing up with the best parents and so much love in the way you teach them. Keep shining ❤
Thanks so much for your support and compliment Heidi 🐣❤️
Tara & John, you are both so industrious…no wonder you have so many unfinished projects. Of course, that also comes naturally with farming. You are to be commended for all you do accomplish!
Thanks Janice! You are so kind to say these lovely things about us 🐣❤️
So sweet seeing you feed the chicks. It's sad to see them unwell and in danger of surviving.❤
@@janiceh.taylor-ng1yb I agree what they've accomplished in three yrs with two little boys is admirable! They live up to the slogan be brave think big and if course explore!🐔🐥🐤🐤
You are all amazing. Your boys are so fortunate to have such patient loving parents.
Does a person have to be a patreon to get the recipe for that zucchini bread?
For next time, I suggest separating the mom and the chicks from the rest of the flock for a few days and the moving them in. I also think you should consider building a bigger chicken coop. This will be better for them and for you guys too when cleaning. Love and be safe!😘🌻ve
Thanks for the suggestion Monique 🐣❤️
Hello Newbys Crusoe is definitely a chip off of the old block, he can turn his hand to anything like his father.
Loved the chicks.
🐣❤️
Its always hard work in the beginning and meanwhile things are constructing. But its going to be less building and more farming when the new house is complete. Its so cool to se the boys interacting in projects. You are the best ❤️
Baby chicks have to be kept very warm until they have their feathers. I used to put a hot water bottle in the box until we bought a small heating pad. I also used mason jars wrapped in fabric after filling them with warm water. Splint the bad leg with small straight rods and keep it there until you are positive it is completely healed. Buy baby chicks feed. Put both water and food in small shallow dishes ( I used jar lids). There is LOADS of online information about raising chickens. My favourite is a lady from New Zealand
Thanks Roger 🐣❤️
Hi. Our border collie adored the chooks, herded them, sat guarding them. Very protective mumma! Obi's protective instincts on show. I have seen lots of seagulls living happily with 1 leg and dogs with 3 legs and no loss of agility.
So sweet to see you feed the little chick and so sad that they're in danger for their possibility of surviving.
Lovely to watch Crusoe and Sawyer play together. They get on very well. Lovely family❤❤❤
Thanks Luisa 🐣❤️
The bread and muffins looked delicious. Poor little chick 😢 He's not suffering anymore. You can freeze zucchini in individual packages and it is ready to go for the next baking adventure. Chocolate zucchini cake is delicious.
It was lovely when the chicken and the duck used to follow a significantly smaller Caruso around ,,memories ☺️🙏
Those are great memories Jannis ❤️❤️
You did your absolute best by the chick, which is all you can ever do. It's amazing what you manage to get done, especially when involving the boys in everything as well.
You're both absolute inspirations
Thanks Lyndsey 🐣❤️
Tara you are so patient with the boys while baking.. its wonderful to see.
❤️❤️
Family time is more important than progress on projects - you never get back the time once it has passed.
Savory courgette sounds delightful.
The best thing I learnt from breeding birds in New Zealand (there were lots of chicks pushed out of the nest) was to feed them hard boiled egg yolk crushed up. Hope this is helpful. It was for us. Good luck.
🐣❤️
You handled the zucchini chaos really well. The boys were so enthusiastic. They will love these memories.
So sorry for the little chick. Your boys are so smart, trying to help the little chick, so cute. A tip it my work or not not sure . I remember my mom used to separate the mother chicken and chicks away from the flock until they were older because of the pecking order, and predators. This might help for the future. Good luck. It is difficult losing your animals.
Thanks so much friend 🐥💔😢
I love to spiralize my zuchinni and use them insread of pasta for sphaghetti. Also, Italians's way of controlling the amount of zuchinni is to pick the zuchinni flowers, stuff them, dip and bread them and deep fry them...delicious. Pinterest has several recipes.
Sorry...also slice them thinly and use them instead of lasagna noodles to make lasagna. Sprinkle lightly with salt though and let them sit for maybe 30 minutes, press them in between hand towels or paper towels to remove the excess moisture that they put off so they won't add excessive liquid to your dish.
Ah yum. Thanks Lynda! ❤️🙏🏼
Grate episod.
Idea for courgets
Raw courgette salad is amazing. You peel them with a peeler until you reach the seeds. Dress it with vinaigrette, then crumble some feta on top, add salt and pepper, and crush some roasted walnuts. It's my favorite summer salad.
Day to day life, with two little ones, on its own takes up a lot of the day, but throw in animals, farming, construction and all the “stuff” that comes with that and I have no idea how you guys do it! It’s a lot and the two of you are just human, so don’t beat yourselves up over what is half finished, but think of how much you’ve managed to get started! You guys are amazing actually!!!
👏🏻😁👍🏻🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing your lives with us each week. So sorry that losing the chick was so traumatizing. Prayers for your whole family 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sweet zucchini loaf is delicious and moist 😋
It freezes well too!
Thanks so much
This is a beautiful episode. I love hearing and seeing John show us how he builds. I love hearing and seeing your children feel excited. I love the experience of survival and loss.
Thanks for the video Tara the boys are growing up so fast love watching everyone busy baking better luck next time with the chick's 😊😊😊😊
I always liked batter dipped and fried zucchini and eggplant.
I absolutely LOVE watching your video blogs. Its like watching a twice weekly soap. Every Wednesday and Sunday I sit with my dinner and catch up with what you have been up to. I really wish I had someone that I could do that with.
Your cooking part reminded me of the hilarious Instagram reels of cooking with Bruce the Cow 🤣 ❤ 👋 🇦🇺
Thank you thank you Tara ...it was a lovely video .I Always look forward to your video's and you never disappoint .
Had some real bad news my daughter in law has terminal cancer dear lord pray for her ..
She's on chemo and I also had a let's just say a bad diagnosis. So your videos are keeping me sane ha lol. God bless you both working do hard
We are so sorry to hear that Angelina. We are sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️❤️
So sorry about the little chick! I would have tried to save it too, but sometimes mother nature knows best. Your farm is looking so beautiful! I hope you give yourselves time to just relax and enjoy it!
🐣❤️
Thank you for sharing real life on a farm! It’s always nice to observe your achievements but I find it super useful to also show people how much effort you put into the farm every day and how hard you actually work to make it all happen 💪🏼 Wish only the best to your family 🐣💚
The bread looks so yummy! Such patience you have. The boys had a blast!
Well little family if that doesn't show the realities of farm life I don't know what will!! What an amazing life you have, trauma, love, mess attempting to build and look after the family and food and just everything, I've always said, you never know what the day will bring and you are true examples of just that, keep on keeping on and flourishing, cheers!!!🥰😘😥💕👍👍🙏🐕🐔🐓🐣🐤🧄🧀🥒🥚
Love your dog. That breed has a job that they take very seriously. Looks like your chickens are his job. Good luck!
Your hen is a great mother. And I’ve had many a wounded chick, and I’ve tried all sorts remedies, to include matchsticks and blue painters tape. Only worked once! And I’ve had to put them to sleep. I cried each time. I would suggest when she has another batch, you segregate mother and chicks in a dog crate or closed area of the chicken run. They need a week or so to get strong and mom needs to keep them safe. Life on the farm is a teaching and learning experience! You Newbys are doing great!❤
Scoop out the center and make a cheese. egg and bread crumb stuffing. Put in back in the 'boat' and bake them.
That was so heart warming seeing your boys cooking with you Tara. I remember those days with my two and now my granddaughters and grandson....takes more time, more mess, but oh my worth every minute. So sorry about the wee chick, you both sure tried hard to nurture it.
All decisions are hard, showing love to any animals is such a wonderful experience. Thanks for sharing the hard bits and also for being vulnerable and loving all things, including yourselves.
You are so welcome Jacqui, thanks for all the support 🐣❤️
I already feel like you are family, and just like we call our families, I watch the videos to know your whereabouts. I know it's funny but I can't help it. You easily hide all your daily life struggles inside your wide smile faces just to give us only good feelings. Such lovely folks you are. Many hugs and well wishes for you guys. ❤🎉😊
Thanks for all the hugs friend ❤️❤️
❤ The reality of living on a farm will always take you through the cycle of life. It is sad that some animals do not survive? But there is real joy to be found in the new births every year and watching the babies grow. You're both so patient with your boys and the issues as they arise. That strength of character will always serve you well when living on a farm. You should be so very proud of all that you have accomplished to date. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Canada, JoJo
Thanks friend. That is the reality of life and definitely a hard lesson to learn 🐣❤️
Finally get to watch your video. That John is something else. My daddy would say,”That man is a gripper.” Meaning hard worker. I love how un’s insert little snippets of the boys just being little boys. They’ll always remember what a great childhood they’ve had when they’re older. And you Mama, are above and beyond a gripper. Super Mama, and I love it. Much love from Appalachia Kentucky, USA.
It’s a hard reality on any animal or four legged love in our lives. To me it never ever gets easier. The loaf and muffins looked delightful. Take care.
I am so sorry about the little chick that passed away. We've been through that a few times here as well. I have a very hard time giving myself permission to take life, even when it seems to be the most humane decision. Breaks my heart. You guys did all you could to give it a chance. ❤ So sweet seeing Crusoe and Sawyer helping to bake the zucchini bread and cupcakes. Thank you for sharing with us again this week. 😊
🐥💔😢
I had pet baby ducklings growing up in Australia, and when I return from school one afternoon the big goanna had got in to they cage. one of the ducklings lost a ankle and foot, and was in a terrible state when I got to them they was a lot of blood....but being a sad 12, I managed to nursed it back to good help next to my bed for a few weeks hand feeding it. It eventually learnt to walk and keep up with my other two surviving ducklings......they would follow me in a line behind me all around the farm and I loved taking them swimming, they eventually made friends at the river and where released back in to nature when adults......it is a beautiful special happy memory helping and seeing the little duck survive and do well on her own in the end back in nature
Hi Tara, my daughter puts her courgettes in her dehydrater, then blends them to make flour, which is great in scones, muffins, breads etc. you can also dry it out in the oven on a slow temperature.
You're doing well John! Sometimes life just gets in the way and side tracks you. At least you remember to go back to the job you left!
Chickens can be down right nasty to each other. Tara, next time you're in town, or from Amazon, buy a box of small eye droppers. Then you'll have something to feed chicks with. Just a suggestion.
Tara, check TH-cam for a recipe for zucchini bread. Zucchini sweet muffins are tasty. The boys will love it. Zucchini pancakes are lovely with garlic aoli too. I process the zucchini and throw it in tomato sauce with onion, garlic, and mushrooms and pour it over pasta.
Sad video, I was hoping the little thing would make it. No wonder you have so many projects on the go, it's a big place and what with looking after the boys and normal every day stuff, you're building and renovating, gardening etc etc..... It's incredible what you're achieving!!!
So were we Sarah! Thanks for being here 🐥💔😢
Keep baby chicks separate until they get older, then can be put together after a month or two.
Thanks for the advice Howard 🐣❤️
With the Squash( croget) , grate them and freeze. You can use it for stew, bread, quiche , and as filler in casserole . Make ribbons, of the large ones to make lasagna noodles. If you have a dehydrator , dehydrate, and put in the food processor, to make flour!
I too have a courgette glut at my UK allotment. So your bread recipe is well-timed.
🌺 You two and your lovely family are incredible! I don’t know how you do it all and keep smiling, it’s a big well done from me 🌺
As the saying goes: survival of the fittest, especially in the animal kingdom. You all did your best.
Delightful footage of group baking😂
Happy Week further Newbys❤
Thanks Karima, not a nice thing to have to go through but it is part of farm life 🐣❤️
Another brilliant episode. Thank you so much for showing the highs and lows of farm life. I was enjoying all the action of building and raising chickens and picking vegetables and cooking but at the same time was really noticing how beautiful the surroundings are; the flowers and shrubs and trees. Everything looks so luscious. Thank you.
Thanks for being here Sally 🐣❤️
never enough time to do it all, keep going we love your videos
Oh Tara, the bread looks delicious. Did you say you would post the link for it? Sorry about that poor baby chick. I'm glad he is not suffering anymore. Have a good week. 😊😊
Hi friend. Yes the link to the bread is in the description of the video ❤️❤️
My granny always took the chicks away and put them in the kitchen in the warmth so they were safe. When they were more grown they went back with the chickens. ❤️
I remember we had a cow that got paralyzed after giving birth. My dad had her in a lean to & hoped she would get up but she didn’t. He had to get a neighbor to put her out of her misery because he couldn’t do it. Dad wanted to be a vet but couldn’t pass chemistry so maybe that was a blessing in disguise. He would do lots of other vetting things with our animals but some things were too hard for him to do. Farm life can definitely be hard sometimes 😢
Ah sorry to hear that friend but it is a harsh reality of farm life! ❤️❤️
@@TheNewbys that was many years ago …
The extension is looking great.
Life does get in the way of smooth progress.
Kudos to having eaves! So necessary in a hot & sunny location!
In Australia (of all places!) most new houses are built without eaves! Which is crazy! (Just to save money).
Thanks friend!
YESSSS ITS THE NEWBYS. QUALITY WATCHING. Love what you do. Helen uk ❤
Awe little Sawyer is talking so much! Sorry to hear about the chick... sad.
The weak rarely survive in the animal kingdom, it seems, and we all learn through experience. Thank you for trying to give the chick a chance to live. Crusoe was so tender in his handling of the chick. Tara, I enjoyed the baking session with your lovely little "helpers" and the bread and muffins really did look good. John, you are always so busy, but I love your tender heart, especially when you took time out from an important project to try to feed and comfort a helpless chick. The two of you are wonderful role modles for your boys and those around you. Thank you both so much.🌹
It is definitely a hard lesson to learn but definitely one to learn from Elizabeth, thanks for being here friend 🐣❤️
Life on the farm is going as it should - brilliant!
Nice to see Obi having fun ❤
Hi, guys! Tara, we have made zucchini bread in my family for generations. You mentioned some savory variations, but I don't want you to forget the sweet ones! My sister likes to add cocoa powder to the batter for chocolate bread, and my kids love it with chocolate chips mixed in👍It's easy to be creative with it, with raisins and other fruits, and chopped nuts, too. So GOOD! And they usually freeze very well. Good job working with two toddlers and getting something edible out of it! So fun to watch them; loved baking with my littles, and now my grandkids! Love to all ❤❤🍞🐣🏡
Ohh sweet variations are definitely something I should look into! Thanks for the suggestions Louise ❤️❤️
Courgette bread is really good! You can even slice it up and freeze it for later. My daughter has made it lots of times (with Courgette and walnuts).
I also read that you can turn it into flour and use it for baking (it was used a lot in the UK during WWII).
🌼☀️🌸Hi Newby Family! Feeling for all of you with the baby chick but you have one sweet one that your boys can see how to raise! All good and important experiences! And so many yummy courgette recipes out there - have you tried making chocolate muffins with them? Thank you for sharing yours!! Wishing you a productive rest of the week:)
Hang in there! We all have times when we ask, “why me?” All part of life and learning.
Oh my heart for your little baby chick🥲you did everything you could do in this situation. Poor thing is at peace with no more suffering. Great job guys😘
🐥💔😢
That was so sweet watching you with the boys❤ enjoy
Enjoyed catching up with you today, love how you involve the boys in all you do. They are learning so much about life on your beautiful fam💞 With the Courgettes I am wondering if you have tried zucchini / courgette spagetti using a spiralizer. - the boys would love it - we have a few recipes that we use that I could share with you if you would like♥
I have so much Respect and admiration for your family ❤❤❤❤
Monster zucchinis have not beaten you Tara! Congratulations! I would love to taste your cooking with huge blobs of butter on top! Yum! As for the chicken challenge you did famously as any inexperienced (in handling such unique circumstances) human chicken parents may have done. We found making the burial part into a neat little ceremony sometimes helps if the children feel it as much as you did.
I remember a special little pet dog passing away. Terrible grief in one child. So we made a special funeral procession and dug the hole and did the honours with tears. A jet plane flew overhead at the end as a special sign of respect. In spite of much finishing to be done, thats life, I loved your super chicken yard neatly fenced, healthy fat chickens, the veges growing so fast, and the beautiful garden swathes around the buildings.The boys are so delightful! Congratulations all the way! 💖
I love so much how your narration Tara, sounds so much like a diary of a brilliant author. Makes me think of " Call the Midwife". Thank you for your creative vlog. It sound professional, which you have become.
Sorry about your little chick experience. Heartbreaking. I do remember your first group of hens and how they followed you (Tara) everywhere. I could feel your pain in their loss. I'm glad you have your dog Obi. It's nice for the boys to have a forever pet to love. Hopefully that makes up for the sometimes loss that happens with the hens & chicks. If that makes sense.
So sorry to hear about your baby chick. We had a baby bunny a few weeks ago that couldn't walk and we tried to save it, but it passed away. We have a little spot in our ivy that we call the animal cemetery, where we put all the wild critters that don't make it, birds, mice, bunnies, so they can go back to Mother Earth. It's very hard when you want to help them, but sometimes it's out of our control. At least they get a lot of Love before crossing over. Looking forward to trying your zuchini bread recipe. Hugs to all!
🐥💔😢
Ever is looking so good. love the extension build, the bathroom looks great. you both have so many projects but manage to keep up with them.. thanks to good neighbors helping out too. ❤❤❤
Thanks Reina 🐣❤️
This thumbnail is a really cute pic of you two.
Hiya Newbys! Very sorry and sad you lost the little chicks😢😢😢. Ideas for courgettes, I made cheese, leek and courgette quiches, they do freeze. Also made frittatas with courgettes. Your baking looked yummy! Thankyou so much for sharing, sending lots of love xx❤️💙💙💙
You have such a beautiful and healthy life. It is such a joy to see you all thriving.
Sorry about the little chick 🐣 Many more to come. So wonderful to see how your little boys helping you in the kitchen 👍🙌👌👊
🐣❤️
The savory courgette muffin recipe sounds delicious! Please post it when you get a chance. Sending love and continued strength for all your endeavors.
Hi MarjiLynn. Here it is for you anoregoncottage.com/garlic-cheese-zucchini-bread-recipe/#recipe I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! ❤️🙏🏼😃
My son has a chicken called Matilda, named by my granddaughter! She had a broken leg, and she is now a happy chicken with a limb! I hope this little chick makes it! Much love from Michigan ❤
Ah Matilda, well done for helping her with her leg! 🐣❤️
I'm so sorry I should have watched until the end, but you and John tried your best
It is so sad about the little one! But as you sayed, that is life and the nature!
But for me , it was very comforting to see it relax a little bit in Johns hand and that is was able to eat a spoonfull!
It was cared for and loved by you all and sometimes, The best way is the last act of kindness!
Well done, Tara, John, Crusoe and Saywer!!!
Therefore I liked the end of todays video even more!
The kitchen chaos was so heart warming to me and I couldn´t help but giggle over your "loosing control", Tara, and Saywers little bitemarks!
Hi Tara, ❤ the update on the vegetables and the not ready watermelon ‘Sawyer’. The bread and cupcakes look delicious. Nature is cruel, but at least you have one fluffy healthy 🐥. John pace yourself please, we don’t want you having another injury. See you on Sunday. Have a good second half of the week. ❤
Thanks so much friend 🐣❤️
Tara, about your courgettes- I recently heard that you can grate them and thoroughly dry in a low oven. Then put them in a blender to turn into nutritious flour. Mix with half wheat or GF flour for baking. Love your channel!
😢 sorry for the wee chick.
Doing life, life happens.
Watching from Port ELIZABETH. South Africa. Blessings to all of you precious Newby's. 😊😊😊😊
Thank you Cathy 🐥💔😢
Sorry about the poor little chick, I would have been the same and tried to save it. Baking with the boys was funny and the bread looked really nice x
🐥💔😢
Both of you are so well planned..love theNewbys...always looking forward to watch every episode...
Your patience with the boys is amazing! Those muffins and bread sound yummy. I’ve never heard of savory zucchini bread. Our recipe is quite sweet and delicious.
Så tråkigt att kycklingen dog, men ni har iallafall en kvar. Mycket hårt arbete med huset men det blir så fint. Pojkarna är så gulliga , ni har så stort tålamod och låter dom vara med er så mycket.❤
two things to do if you have a dehydrator is to make courgette crisps or dried slices that can eventually go in soups etc, another thing to do is to freeze grated courgette to use for baking or cooking. I froze mine in small bags in the quantity needed for specific recipes, make sure to really squeeze the water out before using. feed some to the chickens and sell some at thr market if you can.
Farm life, it is a challenge at times and you learning so much. Always lovely to see the boys help out. I think it sets a good foundation. John the projects will always be there and giving yourself time to do something else is alright. 😊 thanks for the episode and have a lovely week! Back for more on Sunday! 😊
We are definitely learning a lot Dave! Part of the process for sure. Thanks for the support 🐣❤️
