Peaches & Cherry pie!

We processed 2 boxes of Faye Alberta peaches.  

He peeled every single peach! Such a great help!!!
Peaches in syrup, peach jam and peach syrup.
We had a small batch of tart cherries left, so Andrew made a pie…I think you inspired him Chuck!

August

Happy August!

A picture while I was washing dishes. Andrew & Gabe hauling hay out of the marsh. Two computer geeks, may be overqualified hay haulers, but so happy they are helping get the hay out of an area prone to flooding if we get rain.
This little sweetheart sat up all by herself today!
Enjoying a good book.
It’s really neat seeing their confidence in each other grow.
He was telling me that a baby chick was trying to be a parrot, so I asked him to show me what he meant and here right after he walked in to the chicken coop a chick hopped on to his arm. Maybe we should name this chick, Parrot.😁
Enjoying a ride on Buster.
Happy Trails to You🎶
Little Bluestems & some of their biggest fans at the Line Camp.

God’s Abundance!

This time of year it is so neat to see the work and effort show forth in the garden.  God’s fruitful abundance is amazing and tasty too!

We picked our first picking of green beans from the garden today. I used them and a couple of onions for supper. Yum! Late last October, I swung by our neighbor’s house and she gave me two gallons of green beans that were freshly picked. She said jade green beans are the best she’s ever grown. We grew some this year. They are very tasty!
We wrapped up our NDSU class. The two oldest boys really enjoyed it.
Discovering acids and bases with pH strips.
Pony riding lesson.

Rodeo Prep

Now that baseball is over, Simon is doing some preparations for the rodeo that takes place right before school begins.
Taking time to smell the flowers. A sensible young man!
Pumpkins, Gourds, Zucchini are starting to flower.

All Hands on Deck!

Busy as bees this week!

Grandpa and Lucas hauled 147 bales. Lucas has been very helpful hauling bales and mowing the yard. He will be missed!
Barley got cut.
Some sweet corn is tassling and there are some very small cobs .
Baling the ditch.
Picking cherries at the neighbors.

Sunday Funday

Finding red strawberries.
Playing rockets!
Catch!
Taming Twinkle.
That smile on that little girl about sums up our weekend!
If any of you are driving by Lake Tschida swing by The Line Camp & enjoy some ice cream. Some of the Saturdays this summer they are going to also have the Hearty Heifer food truck there for yummy tacos and The Little Bluestems play. Perfect late summer evening fun for a family!
Good music, good fun!
