Mom's Birthday

Monday was Mom's birthday!!! We celebrated Sunday, since Dad would be home and then on Monday we all went to a planting festival in Mansfield put on by Baker Creek Seed Co. We had never been before and it happened to be on Mom's birthday this year!!! It was pretty cool. It ended up being 80 degrees, making a great day for that! One of the really nice things about it was that we live really close to it! When you live out in the country, most of the time you find yourself driving about an hour to go anywhere! Yes, Anna and I took a lot of pictures while we were there.



With how big our garden is this year, I'm going to need this,  for this summer!

This old fashioned house and car were pretty cool!

The garden they had there was HUGE!



These are the people we processed for all summer last year. They were vendors there this year too!

Here is an overall view from the parking lot of what it looked like!

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 milk...
