Transforming the New Barn into a Horse and Cow Paradise

🐴We have purchased 2 acres of land behind the new barn for keeping horses and cows. We plan to create pasture areas, tree-covered areas, and a possible play area for the kids.

🌳We will be planting Fat Albert blue spruce trees in containers on either side of the barn doors. These trees require little water and will provide a beautiful contrast against the red barn siding.

🏀We have installed basketball nets on the basketball court, which doubles as a tennis court. We are considering adding a playset and a play Central area in the future.

🚜We are using a tractor to bring containers and pallets to the new land. The containers will be used to transport Fat Albert blue spruce trees, while the pallets will be added to our existing pallet pile.

🧹We cleaned out the stalls in the barn, removing debris, old boards, and bags. We also raked the area around the barn, making it clean and inviting.
