Life at the Farm House...IS ON

Ok so I know I changed up the format a little with the last few posts but oh my goodness I am so excited I gotta just post a project!  15 months we’ve lived here— 15 months!!!!  And out the front door this: So gross and Why???????????? Well really the why is somebody (I don’t know who or why they were considered a reliable source but they need their fanny kicked whoever it was) told him he wouldn’t be able to get siding like that. But really it was like $3.99 a sheet at Menards  So the great news is this look is gone!!! I’m so happy I could do a cartwheel.  Oh wait, did I mention at the onset that this project isn’t  done. (I know-shocker. Hello, this is us, we  live here, not done is kindof our thing. We’ll call it an Ison special😉) AND  I hope I’m not jinxing it getting finished by posting about it 🤞 Anyway Probably about $40 (not exactly sure) and an hour and a half or so... Such an easy fix!! Yes that’s a blasted goat-don’t ask🙄-they are on loan...

We were at the annual Ison family fun week camping first of August then school started so obviously farmhouse projects slowed way down but I had a few pics I thought were worth sharing. We bought an old brush hog...actually did the tractor ever make this blog??? BEST purchase we made-its the only way we survived the winter. Isaac would hook the box blade on and back down the drive way to clear the snow. It had to happen SEVERAL times this last winter. YIKES. At any rate the pic I had (in the August pile) is with our buddy Sam. We love the Moody's! But Tanner is his dad's tractor man around here!  The brush hog guy was also selling this little wagon. Sold. Its the lawn mower wagon now. The lawn mower was part of the tractor purchase.  And...really August's project was tearing down the North Main house. WHAT. A. NIGHTMARE! I'm so glad that's over. Perspective right? Just keeping me appreciating the farm house!  But while we had Bishop's dump truck...
