A Jam-Packed June

Hello all! We hope you had a wonderful June!
Another month has gone and another has sprung up out of nowhere. Where is this year going?
Let's reminisce back into the past, shall we...?


 The garden is coming along nicely this year!
Our watermelons in progress
Isaiah's morning bed hair and facial expressions are quite exotic...and adorable!
 ...he's also walking so well now! Why he's wearing a helmet is a mystery to us!
Cute little guy!
 Our monthly get-together with the Fords, Langs, and Niednagels!
 So much joy in one picture!
The moms fellowship
Another cute little guy!
Anna, always happy to be on child duty!
Dramatic water jump!
This one's gonna be GOOD!
Water Jump With Style!
Jump And Plug!
 Norah and Mom on Norah's weekend away.
Norah in her happy place!
 Pictures after church with sweet friends
Grace, Hosanna, Hannah, Ashley, Tessa, Joonie, Anna, Tristen, Tori, and Arwen,
and Izzy behind the camera!
It's 2:30 am! These kids are ready to process CHICKENS!!!
 Our assembly line of talented helpers
ALL 180 Chickens Butchered, Bagged, Weighed, Labeled, and into refrigeration by 9:30 am!
Nice work everyone! Thank you again, Kalea, Langs, and Mr. Gellman for all your help!
June chicken processing completed! This calls for a game of volleyball...
...and Roller skating the next day! 
 STOP! Say Cheese!
"Just don't fall, just don't fall, just don't fall"
First Time On Skates! Katherine loved it!
Out for brunch at Hemingway's for Father's day!
Front porch sittin' 
 Our church's summer ball! It was so fun!
Swing your partner
 Pretty gal pals
 The cutest couple of the night!
"I think we're getting the hang of this, guys!"
We said good-bye to Tim-T-bone. He was our first steer to take to the butcher. Yeah, it's kind of sad, but we're all very excited to try our own beef!
Beating the heat by sitting in the freezer! (Actually, she was cleaning it.)
Maddy had a birthday! It was so strange without her at home,
 but the staff at Lamplighter really made her birthday special!
Oh, and she actually enjoys playing volleyball now!
And that's a wrap! Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful July!

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! ...

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....
