Barn Ready!

The barn is finally ready. I will post pics soon with before and after shots. Nothing is ever as easy as you think. We are ready for goats now with the sliding door all fixed and the pens closed in. I will be using large plastic dog crates for the kids to snuggle into in case we get a cold snap and have a heat lamp - that I don't (hopefully) think I will need to use if the weather gets really bad. I've used the crates to keep newborns warm in negative 12 degree weather and it works wonders. It allows the kids to harden off by playing out in the cold barn when they feel like it but still have a warm spot for a nap. They catch on to seeking warmth in the crate instinctively.
