It's been awhile since I last posted.....a long while. You see, summer for us
is not the laid back, lemonade sipping, sitting on the porch time it is
for some. Summer on the farm is up at 5:30 a.m., pipe moving, thistle
digging, sweating, fence moving, cow milking long days. My job is to support all of
the work going on and those doing it. So, my blogging had to go on hiatus until some of
the summer work had ceased. Now with the kids in school and all of
us on some sort of schedule, I can get back to blogging. I thought I
would just share some photos of the highlights of our summer.

Summer is definitely one of our busiest times, but it's the time we learn to work together to accomplish big things. It's the time we make memories together. It's when we see the best and the worst of each other and learn to appreciate our differences. It's long. It's hot. But, I also wouldn't trade it for anything......well, except for a beautiful fall!
I liked this Kayla -- thanks for sharing. After hearing about Marci's experiences during fair time (every year), I mostly just think you farmers' wives are tough chicks.
