It's Harvest Time!! It is time to pick our vegetables, an exciting & very busy time for the farm! Some of the pict are the day before they began picking & then some of the actual first day of Harvest! God has surely blessed us! I am blessed by having a husband that is a hard worker! He loves to farm & loves providing for his family! He has a heart that is very giving & I am so blessed to share in his life! Thank you Winston for all of your hard work & love for your family! We do not know what the future holds for farming with all of the labor problems & laws, but we will enjoy it while it is here! Be sure and pray for the farmers in America...I really do not want to be eating food from other countries. They can spray anything on their crops without much regulations....and then we import it...go figure!! Our gov't is just grand!!!

It will be Ky. & myself until late tonight, Casey has a class. It has been another beautiful day. Windy & cooler. I decided to wash Ky. pallet and bun bun this morn. Well, it was fine until she saw her bun bun through the window in the washer. She pointed & said, bun bun! I got it out for her of course!!!That is a down fall of having this type of washer!!!Ha!I did wait until it was clean!

It is Monday, everyone is tired from the weekend, even Ky. She is extremely ill. She is cutting a mouth full of teeth and has every right to be ill! But it is not fun! She slept for a total of 30 min. today. New appliances will be delivered today. It is after 4, they just called & are running late. Cayla, Ky. & myself took a blanket outside and laid around to enjoy the nice windy afternoon. Ky laid back & checked out the leaves and sky, then up & running again. App. delivered, now we need detergent with HE on it! Morven...does not have it....go to Q-town... Rite Aid nor Harvey's has it... Back to house. At 8:30 Cayla and I went to Walmart & got the detergent!!!Now we can wash!

09/15 & 16/2007

I worked on (finishing up) painting the laundry room. Another coat of paint on walls, everything is all over the place!! I also did a faux finish on the floor. Went to church, next time Kylie will move up to the next class....it is time...she barely fits in the seats in the tables! They move up at 18 months. After church, went to Lowes..got sealer, rugs & window treatment! Put sealer on floor!

Cole's Wild Pig's.....pig 9/2007

I just have to blog this while I have it on my mind! Emmett, my father-in-law, has quite a few wild hogs on his farm. A friend of his comes & sets traps to catch them, they fatten & slaughter them! Well, Cole decides he needs some pork in his freezer. Now, he goes over & gets 2 wild pigs. (Where do you think he is going to keep them??? )He puts them in his dog kennels in the back of his truck to bring them OVER HERE!!! Well, he lets down the tailgate, gets 1 out, turns around to put it in the pen. Well duh.....the other one squeezes through the bars of the kennel & high tails it through the yard & into the woods!!Hee Haw!! So now he has 1 pig!!! Now you know we grow produce on plastic & any animal with hooves can poke holes in it & eat the veggie's!!! His Dad was not to happy bout this as u can imagine!!! I finally saw this pig yesterday...(10/01) & I can tell ya this, gonna take a whole lot a food to fatten that po thing up!!! I believe it would be just as cheap to go to Sam's or Publix & buy some pork!!!!

Kylie slept late again! Eat breakfast! Pa Pa came in & got spaghetti to take & eat at the barn, Kylie wanted to eat again!!!

I changed Kylie's diaper today, in a few minutes she came to my desk & was standing by my chair when I hear the sound of something landing on my mat under my chair. I looked down & there was a puddle. "I said what in the world"? Pulled up her shirt & she had taken her diaper off!!! Clean up on aisle 1!!! She did not want to put it back on, so I put training pants on her....clean up on all aisles!!!! We did get a diaper back on!

Ky did take about an hour nap!

Pa Pa came by & helped me put her play house on the screen porch, (out of her bedroom)! Then we played in it for a time, she even had me in it!!!

You also had ice cream today! Then a storm blew up so we came inside!

(Yesterday we had a storm & it laid all of our cubanelle peppers on the ground!!!Not a pretty sight, they will string them to stakes and stand them back up!! this is not the first time this happened, handling it better this time!!! )

While it was raining we laid on the couch & watched a movie. Then I hear this noise, you know, like when someone is snoring. Ky. is laid back pretending to snore!!! I asked her if that is how I sound!!! She just laughed!

After the storm we took Sydney out, played on the porch & had our Bible time. You will make the motions to: Roll the Gospel, & today we also sang This Little Christian Light of Mine....you really got in to the, no, I'm gonna let it shine part!!!

Picked up some limbs, your Mom is home, now you have her in the play house!!!

You are such a blessing and you are so pleasant!

You speak to everyone, greet them with a smile and blow them a kiss!!!

We had a storm come through our farm today and our produce took quite a beating. It actually laid our pepper plants on the ground. The squash fared better since it is a tougher plant. They will go over them, stand them back up and restring them to the stakes! We had this happen about 9 years ago.

Today we went to your 18 months check up! (I had to wake you up today to get you ready!) On the way to the office, I looked back & you had your sunglasses on top of your head, just like we wear ours when they are not on our eyes! Then you adjusted them around a little. I caught a couple of shots of this. You had a good check-up, changing you to 2% milk. You are 32 in tall, 29 lbs.You also got 2 shots. We went to Walmart and bought some milk. Now we will take Sidney to see her Dr. & get her shots. On the way you want to hold her....see pictures!! We take her in and get her check-up. You did not want them to take her from me. After her visit she chased you around & around the table, you got so tickled!!! They also had a big fish aquarium that you enjoyed!!! Later this afternoon after Ca Ca arrived home we took your sidewalk chalk, went on the front porch & drew. I think Aunt Ca Ca enjoyed it as much as you! Later we rode with Pa Pa in the Hawg, and then you swam in your little pool until your Mom came home from work. She feed you & rocked you. You went to sleep early because you did not take a nap today!

Today we just had a typical day. We went to the bank, post office & the Dollar General. We bought you some sidewalk chalk. We played outside & when your Mom came home she played with you!
