A Spectacular September

Hello to all our friends. Well long story short, Maddy is unable to do a blog post so we (Anna and my sidekick Izzy) are taking it over for a little while. (We'll explain about Maddy later on..so keep reading!) 

What's a blog entry without an adorable baby?! 

   While unloading hay, Izzy found this little guy and got some cool pictures with him! 

While at Silver Dollar City waiting to see Lonestar in concert, Norah and I "brave the waves"! 

 My thrilled and excited concert buddy!
 Just can't contain the excitement here 
 Yep, it was a full house!
A night to remember! Great songs, fun band.

And two days later we had chicken processing...at 1:00 a.m.!

 In anticipation of the cold weather to come, we took an advantage of the warm weather and had a little camp out in the front yard.
 Close enough!
 Expectation vs. Reality 
 Hallelujah! We did it! 
We ended up sleeping in it four nights in a row! Due to rain coming, we sadly had to take it down.

 Caution. extreme cuteness ahead
 He got his first two teeth!
 CUTENESS!!!!
 Maddy did my birthday photos this year! 

Not sure why, but this is one of my favorites!

 Yummy birthday cake...full of corn syrup! Mom had a fit!
 So. Maddy was accepted for an internship with a publishing company in New York! She'll be gone for a month, possibly three. This is Izzy waving good bye as Dad and Maddy head to the airport. 
On their way to New York!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great October!

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos!  This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up  Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills  Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model!  Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite!  They make for good pets...when they're little anyway!  When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields...  ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough  Meet the new bull calf, Demitri!

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
