Sadness

I’m a little sad now that harvest is all over! :( I rode my bike for a while down the country roads this afternoon and there were still a lot of combines out in the wheat fields…and I passed quite a few trucks hauling to the elevator. It kinda made me sad. Guess I can just look forward to next year!

This morning, I did laundry (which Serena usually does but she was still in Colorado…so I figured I should be a helpful sister and do it for her!) She returned home about 3:30 this afternoon and seemed to have a really good time with her friend. They both LOVE to sew…so having a good time for them is going to a fabric store. I also cleaned the house this morning and part of the afternoon. I spent some time just chatting with my sisters this afternoon too about camp, dad’s upcoming birthday, work, Krissa’s new job at Southern Progress Corporation in AL, and a few other things. This evening, we took my Grandma out to eat and spent some time over at her house. Krissa will be leaving on Wednesday already…so this was kinda a last farewell.

I suppose I should quite blogging, turn off my country music, put my computer to sleep, and GO TO BED…since I must work tomorrow and Sunday and Monday. Goodnight!

Reaping what is sown

Dad was able to go ahead and cut wheat on Tuesday, despite the shower Monday night. And after cutting all day Wednesday, he finished that evening. And he only had one minor breakdown Tuesday evening but got it fixed pretty quickly. YAY! I had a lot of fun driving but perhaps not quite as much fun as Krissa and I had last year. ;) The wheat actually did a little better than Dad thought it would so I’m grateful to the Lord for the that. Here’s a few random photos from the field… =D

“Load up Lady” (she knows what that means and comes running!)

I think I’ll just take a nap…

On second thought…maybe I should watch where we’re going

Let’s go!

This is FUN!

Really…I am watching where I’m going!
