Fall Baking 🍂

September 26, 2019 / / 1 Comment

We decided that after we were done with preschool and morning chores, baking cookies would be a great way to warm up the house!  A window was left open…One, who shall remain nameless, likes to not turn on the heat until October (I, however, turn on the heat when it is 65 degrees.)

He’s going to take in some football cookies for his class, teachers and bus driver.
Dad’s favorite butterscotch cookies.

Andrew’s cantaloupe

I’m always amazed that this kind of fruit can grow in North Dakota! 

He brought in 3 from the Garden tonight and there’s a bunch more out there … and he got three last week.
A dear friend had given me some flowers earlier this summer, they had reached the end of their time since they are summer flowers so I used the same pot and some of the soil and transplanted a bunch of my Marigolds into it to add some Autumn color to the yard.

The older I get the more I appreciate Fall.  Two days in a row of beautiful weather!

The boys helped gather gourds.
Sitting on the big pumpkin.
Riding bike down the big hill.
Grandpa set up a low beam that will be raised slowly as Ambrose’s confidence swells.
The practice beam helped his confidence!

Cattle Drive

We had our longest cattle drive today.  We had amazing help, there were some tough spots with other herds and crossing the highway but with the great workers, all ended well!  Thank you St. Isidore!  

Getting ready to start.
The first 2 mile stretch.
Rounding the 2nd to last curve.
The cattle are in one of their Fall pastures. This is the “feeding crew.” I had 7 helpers to help prepare the lunch.
Coming to eat.
Always a successful feeling to have a happy trail drive!

Afternoon Apple Picking

September 20, 2019 / / 0 Comments

With rain in the forecast for the next two days we went to pick apples after school today so we can process them on the rainy days.

Ignatius, Ambrose, & I planted tulips and daffodils earlier this morning, hope they come up next spring! This is a picture of them being measured out before they were planted.

Eggplants & Tomatoes

Time to sauce tomatoes!  If anyone needs eggplant, please stop by!

The DRE (director of religious education) asked Fr. Zwack to do a practice Mass for the students…basically he walked the students through the Mass and explained everything from the priest vestments to the prayers he says, very informational! I hope the students learned a lot.

Opposite of Drought

September 12, 2019 / / 1 Comment

I am not a professional meteorologist, but I’m pretty sure we are not experiencing drought.

A soggy day.
I figured a lit candle would shed a little light on this gray day.
Chili with tomatoes and peppers from the garden… The rain does provide me ample time to make suppers.
Cornbread!
Special K bars for dessert.
