Wow summer has gone by fast

School starts in less than 2 weeks here. This summer has flown by fast. Between summer school, Steve's clinicals, ballgames, swimming lessons and canning we stayed busy. Good News- Steve is now employed with Tule Creek EMS. He will continue school and work and graduate next May. When school stats Brett will be in 1st grade and Will will start pre-k. For now I'll leave you with some of our sumer pics. Love to all

Whew

We have officially survived another Germanfest and Suds-n- sounds. We finally made it home around 3 am this morning. We were in charge of the concession stand at the ballpark so we had to clean up after it was over. Steve was on duty yesterday until 3 so it was a busy, busy day. I didn't even take the camera to germanfest yesterday but it was GREAT as usual.

Potatoes

I started on the potatoes yesterday and got 24 qts. done. Sadly, that barely made a dent in the potatoes I have. I went to Springlake to the potato shed and got 100 lbs of red potatoes. They are so easy to put up. Thanks Jeri Kate and Chloma for the how to do it.

Busy, busy , busy

Steve has had clinicals since the end of May and I taught summer school for 3 weeks so we have gotten nothing accomplished until now. We also threw in basketball camp, state shorthorn show and baseball. Brett won 1st in his class at the state shorthorn show so he was excited. So today we worked in the house and then the yard. We had some huge weeds and we pulled and pulled and pulled some more. The yard is starting to look really good so we will keep pulling those weeds. We got our first vegetables out of the garden today- 2 squash but it is a start. Tomorrow we start canning potatoes. I love canning so it will be more fun than a chore. Hope everyone is having a great summer and let us hear from you.

4th of July

We seem to always end up at Kay and Boyd's for the 4th and this year was no exception. Steve was on call all weekend so he had to be over there. We cooked burgers and enjoyed lots of fireworks with the cousins and Dylan. Guac and hot sauce on a burger is awesome, I will never eat another plain one again. Here are some pics from last night. Hope everyone had a safe and fun holiday.
