Today when Papa got home we were out in the yard planting a few plants. Kylie quickly got Papa to check out something in the trees. He put her in one of them, she quickly told him to get her down...she was scared. Then she said...I not no squirrel, I not want to get shot. We have been killing a few squirrels, they are eating the house! It was so funny. Then he tried to coax her into climbing this tree with him....oh what Papa's will do for those grands!

More Rain...I need sunshine!

A week of paper work...it never ends...you just start over! My brain is toast! No smart comments!

Jill

While at the barm today, Kylie started calling me, Jill. It caught me buy surprise. We all got a good laugh out of it..she really drew it out...hey Jiiill!

TO MUCH RAIN.......NOT GOOD FOR PRODUCE!!! YIKES!

Today Kylie & I went to the barn, ate lunch with Papa. I vacuumed his man cave & cleaned out his frige...I need to do mine!!! He is so funny, he likes everything in its place...tools, desk....frig....see where I am going! I almost hate to move anything! But, I did it anyway....he was steady checking out where I was putting things. I tried to remember where everything went & put it back!!! That is a task for me! Ha! He was glad I did it, but it was just at a busy time for him...farm full of employees. I told him to be glad that I was in the mood to clean....to bad the mood doesn't come more often!!! He was very thankful after it was finished, he tried to get me to pick up this big ole rug slam full of dirt & beat it clean. I told him that was not going to happen!!! That looked like a man job!

Girls Just Wanna have Fun

Kylie has been singing her version of this song, as she helped unload the silverware from the dishwasher!

Thanks Martha for the picture...Christina with her Mom who is one of the best Mom's in the world!

What two old men say about the farm!

In years past we have had a couple of older friends help us on the farm. Mr. Jack & Mr. Walter. They were great workers, but they can also tell many tales about this farm. Mr. Walter says...it's not a job, it's an adventure. Mr. Jack says...once you enter those pearly gates you just don't know whats gonna happen, or what time your gonna go home! Mr Walter was here today & witnessed the snake adventures! These two have also watched many young employees come & go. It dose not take but a few hours to let you know if they will make it! They have watched our children grow up on this farm....neither of the girls like to pack produce!!! I can relate, but they should be glad we had quite growing tobacco!!! That will really kick your bottom! Just a few memories!

Poor Birdies

Well as you know I have been watching these red bellied woodpeckers for a while. Today, a snake crawled up their tree & invaded their home....I hate snakes! The Mexicans were throwing rocks & sticks, they had also noticed these birds. Winston heard the commotion...Cole got the gun & took care of the snake, which prob took care of the baby birds! There was another nest under the shed, and would you believe, another oak snake was on the rafters just leaving their home.....that is why parents should not leave their kids at home alone, just let them starve, I guess! But when they are teenagers you just might want to leave them at home alone...Ha! Just kidding, but some days....I might have thought about it! Love you kids!
