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!

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! ...

Izzy's 12 Year Old Pictures

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)!

JULY

Hello everyone!!  Hope you all had a great July!! :) Ours included a 4th of July celebration, a brand new litter of 10 pigs, stocking up on hay for the winter months, a gun safety course we three older ones went through, a chicken butchering day, topped off with Ava Park fun with friends, a trip to Silver Dollar City, and creek fun!  Shall we begin? Our enthusiastic grill major for the 4th of July. I’m not sure about her, but the food was a 5+ rating! Can’t get more patriotic than this picture *wink* Whenever friends stop by for a visit and bring a cake,  there will be no complaints here!….Until everyone gets a sugar high. In honor of the 4th, I’ll share one of my favorite quotes: “Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom. Thank them both today.” Ended the night with a bang, like (I’m assuming) everyone else did! And the very next day,… 10 of ‘em born on the 5th....
