Buy Me Some Peanuts & Crackerjacks…

We attended the Peewee tournament in Glen Ullin yesterday.  I also added some photos of activities over the last week.

Blessed the cousins are playing on the same team!
Andrew shared this photo of Simon and his Godfather, Allen, shingling Skipper’s house.

Early morning ride to beat the heat.
Ambrosia and her heifer, Princess.
Seeing if he’s still taller than the tomatoes.
The peas are flowering.
Searching for red strawberries, barefoot.
We’ve had a lot of rain this last week… typically we’re in a drought and well in to haying… now I’m wondering when we’ll get a chance to start cutting. I thought this rainbow was pretty.

Not big on quantity but big on quality!

I think one of the favorite tasks of the boys is to go over to the garden and see if there’s any red strawberries. None of them have made it to the house.

It rained this afternoon so we made cookies.
It’s nice to have neighbors drop in and it seems to happen most often on rainy days in the summer.

Reclaiming the Garden

After a week or so of being neglected he spent the afternoon weeding and working on the garden.

Grandma Jen sent this picture to me after we worked our late calves on Friday.
Thanks Tracy, that ride on his pony meant a lot to him!

Happy 4th of July!

We were so lucky to be able to celebrate with the Jacobsons, Meyers, and Gietzen grandparents.

Happy birthday U.S.A.!
The porch is now completly screened!
Putting Andrew’s homemade screen door in place. Thanks for helping Allen!
Thanks for sharing your musical talent Little Blue Stems!

Hail

Our beautiful home had it’s first experience with hail.  At 6:20 am thunder, lightning, hail, a strong wind, and a torrential rain hit and it was really hard to hear the hail pound the siding and roof.  By 6:30ish it turned to a more gentle rain.  We’ll assess the damage once it’s done raining.  I guess that’s why we pay for insurance.  Update: 9:05 am…the house survived fine.  The hay looks tough but hopefully will stand back up.  

Corpus Christi

What a blessed day! One of my favorite Masses. Right up there with Easter & Christmas! The procession was lovely.

Walking to Mass.
My cousin & his fiance gathering the collection.
The procession!
The forever talented Christi!

My great aunt provided us with our first hostas, lily of the valley, and purple iris.
Mmmmmm, watermelon!
Sunday Siesta!
Hayrides given after the Corpus Christi Mass by Grandpa and Glen Clark. We led Simon’s pony during this hayride.
