July 2017

Sorry this one came out so late! I had this all ready to go a lot earlier, but the time got away from me to actually publish it! You understand. :)



 Katherine thoroughly enjoying herself at the Cook's 4th of July party. 
 Anna holding Ambrose for the last time, as the Iskers moved away a few days later.
Beautiful way to celebrate this country's freedom!
 Cow day at Chick-fil-A meant everyone wanted to dress up! Izzy was the most eager to get into it!
 Let's go get a free meal!
 This was our first time to participate in cow appreciation day. It was fun! 
We all look like dairy cows!
 Our neighbor let us come and berry pick at his place. She's a very efficient berry picker! ;) 
 3 gallons of blackberries!
Meanwhile, others got bored....
 Summer and little girls are a good mix.
 I love him!


He's such a drool bug!
Yeah, we get along great!
Did I ever tell you that chickens are Anna's favorite animal?
 I think she likes farming!
Yep, my point proven!
 We finally got some rain! Yay!
It is beautiful indeed!
Between Anna's photography skills and Katherine's poses, we end up with a lot of good pictures of Kit-Kat! She loves her veggies!
This guy loves car rides!
Maybe one day he will love ball games at Coors Field!
 For whatever reason, our trees think it's fall already. Now it looks like fall at our place!
Katherine and Dawson dream of racing all around the farm. Fun times for them at the Fords!
 We ended up having a last minute monthly get together at our house.  After this photo was taken, the Niednagels showed up and it was a full house!
 Anna just adores Isaiah, and Isaiah welcomes the attention! 
All the kids in the backyard having lunch.
With how hot it was all month, we were so happy to get some cloud cover! Adding cows into the picture just makes it look better!
Isaiah met the cat for the first time. And it still looks like it's fall!


He's getting so big!

That's all folks!

Tune in next time to hear all about our adventure in Colorado!

Now that Isabelle has been 12 for a month now, I finally got around to getting her pictures done! This post will be short and sweet and a big long one will be coming soon (hopefully)!

August In A Nutshell

Hello folks!  We hope you all had a great August!  This month Mom, Dad, and Isaiah drove to CO to drop Peyton and Norah off, so they could visit with our Grandmas for two weeks. They were supposed to go to Germany and Austria with Grandma Mary in June, but, due to covid19, they weren’t able to go.  But they still needed some Grandma time! We also butchered around 300 chickens this month. We’ve never butchered that many at the same time before, so we broke them up into two different butcher days. (Since we had to cut up 200 of them).  And took steers to the butcher!!!  August was also ‘drought  month’ for MO. The fields turned crispy brown,  which hasn’t been helpful for our grazing cattle.   Thankfully, we’ve gotten some good rains right at the end of the month,  and things have once again greened up! Priscilla (my cow) FINALLY had her calf!! We’ve been waiting so long for her to arrive! (YES!!! She had a heifer!!!!!!) So, the process of milking has finally begun! And we’re already get

April

 Welcome Back!! Hope you all had a great April! For us, it was quite crazy! But I guess we should be used to that by now. Overview of April: Springfield Symphony with my cello teacher, her husband, and a few other friends, a Bakers creek Festival, hiking at Ha-Ha Tonka with some of the Ford's, Easter, and a Family Conference in Big Sandy, Texas with the Ford family! Springfield Symphony in Downtown Springfield! Such a beautiful building!! The Symphony!  We also had the pleasure of getting to watch one of the world's best cellists, Bryan Cheng! When you randomly discover that the blue lights in your room make yellow highlighters glow! .....and your siblings ask you to write all over them, and not only do you listen to them but you also think it's a great idea🙈 It's a yellow nose and arms for the win!! Somebody's got a bun in the oven! ;) It's Anna in the background for me! 😂 Got a chance to get some quality time in with this beautiful girl! I love our walks and
