Well, the day has come and gone. I now need some help taking all of the festiveness down. Sis Pam asked how many trees are in our home. Ranging from 1 foot to 7.5, there are 14 trees in the grove. Every room has at least one. It is very pretty but someone needs to take it all down. I guess that someone is me. Normally I get the after Christmas blues so bad. This year for some reason I did not. Perhaps it is that melancholy feeling that causes me to rise at 5 am to go stand in line at Wal-Mart to buy reduced merchandise. I go way overboard. It is more of an obsessive disorder I think. I was going to go out and be reasonable this year. I was going to spend a minimal amount because clearly I do no need anymore stuff. There was just a few item I wanted to add. Four hours and six stores later I had a car full. I just got so caught up. It is pathetic and I need help. It is so fun though. Truth be told I sneak back in every now and then to see if it is reduced even more. I am still over $100 under last year. So there has been improvement. There are some 30plus boxes of Christmas stuff in our attic, or will be when I finally get it back there. I see these litle Rubbermaid containers for storing ornaments and think how pathetic that is. There is no way I could get all ou ornaments in there. I may count how many ornaments there are this year. It is way out of control, but hey everyone has their thing. At least mine is not something illegal or harmful to me. My poor attic doesn't think so. I hear it groaning throught the year beneath the weight of the load. That could very well be the death of me, crushed beneath collapse, avalanche of Christmas trees, ornaments and various other items. I have ramble quite enough. God bless you all.

The Big Reveal
Here are a few pics of the outside of our house. It does not show everything. I love Christmas. I have been slow to post due to a small home improvement project. I suppose I should post some pics of that. There will be a band service at our house tonight. There was a ladies' night out last Friday. I had to get all of the construction finished before that and try to clean up the mess. All is well here in Arkansas. I will try to get some more pics up of the inside. I'll have to hurry, lest I be called a liar. The nerve!!!!! *rasberry* Hope you guys enjoy this post. More pics that words. God bless you all.

About Me
- Jason Mullins
- In 2003, my wife Tabithia and I left our city home and embarked on an unexpected journey. Both of us have fulltime jobs outside of the home. When the work day is over we return home and begin working again. We have around 100 animals here. Many of which are owner surrendered or rescued. This 4 +/- acres of land that we call Fair Haven Farms is a little piece of heaven. Not everything is always grand, but we endure the negative and celebrate the highlights of our furred and feathered friends. The farm is available for travel. We participate in many educational programs. FHF also opens the barn doors for birthday parties and other events. Feel free to visit our Fair Haven Farm facebook page. We hope to see you soon. Until then may every day be FARMTASTIC!
