All In a Day's Work


Wednesday arrived. Kat, Andy and Christopher started working on the yard. They took turns with the rider, the push mower and the weedeater.

Kathleen was the last one to get a turn on the rider and she had the pedal to the metal and was really knocking the weeds and grass down!! Christopher and I were trying to get the weedeater going and we looked up and saw Kathleen at the far end of the 10 acre stretch. There she was, the queen of karaoke, belting out songs as she flew around the field!!

Andy has determined that the green stuff coming up is the oats the neighbor had put in earlier this spring. There had been one or two mighty strong east winds come through, so it is pretty likely! We have no idea where all our grass seed went. The normally prevailing west winds probably took it and added to his pasture grass! So...we got each other's crops!

Late this afternoon Kathleen sent Chris and I to get a load of dirt. There was a dark cloud on the horizon, but it look like it was a ways off. We were still in town filling out her list, a little more than an hour later, and a fast moving storm blew through. As we started on the road home the rain hit. Finally we arrived home with our truck filled with MUD!

Obviously, the time for working outside is over. Kat and family went to town to get Chris a pair of shoes and to get some apples. We are going to bake an apple pie tonight!! Life is good. God is good!
