Helping prepare supper!

Helping shell peas to add to the lettuce & spinach from the garden.
Anytime I can supplement supper with something from the garden…it makes me happy, General Tso’s Chicken, rice and sauteed peas which were from the garden. Frozen strawberries in lemonade and shelled peas (which taste like candy)…and the kids like to eat them raw. Add a little spinach and lettuce and we’ll call it supper!

Grandpa got a new milk cow!  A Jersey!  I’m excited to see how the cream tastes!

She even came equipped with a bell!

Eggs

I dropped a dozen eggs off with a friend who has a five-year-old son. She said,  “Joshua was impressed with the different colors of the eggs 😁”.  As I was putting eggs away this morning, I paused and admired them too.

A variety of chickens, makes a variety of eggs.

Fruit

Shoutout for the Duppong farm located just north of us they have some pretty amazing fruit out there!  They have U-pick and they’re selling juneberries and cherries right now.

We had more rain last night about half an inch and so with all this rain we get time to pick berries and cherries! Haymarsh is sure lucky to have a lady like Renae around! I like to call her St. Renae.
Grandpa had a bull that went missing in action two days ago when we rounded up the other bulls. Don, our good ol’ neighbor called this morning and said the bull has been located. Don is such an old cowboy it made it easy to get the bull caught.
Letting the bull out.
The bull heading toward his summer job.
We thought we’d run some of those Georgia peaches over to Great Grandma Mary after we picked berries.
On our way home from Great Grandma Mary’s.
I sure appreciate all the hard work Andrew put in to designing and building our home.

Happy Heart ❤️

I love it when I look up and see my sons in our garden! I’m not sure why it makes me so happy, but it does.

Rain, again. Maybe Andrew and I need to research how to grow rice paddies.
Rainy day activity.
The rain cooled it down enough that we could have our first supper on the screened in porch!
Heavenly view! I like seeing those hills in the background.
