In which we visit the Farm Show

-
We arrived around 12:30.

The crew except for me, who was taking the picture:)

Observing the goat competition. Those handlers had a lot of patience with their goats. I wish our dog would obey as well as the goats!

Corncob darts. . .

Checkout all those smiley veggies!






"This cow gives water!!!!!" Suddenly we must have an inspection crew to see if he is correct.

By 2:30, every thought it was time to tryout the fine food the Farm Show offers.

The bins of corn provided quite a bit of entertainment

Several people thought it was great to be able to have front row seating while the carriages went around.

We arrived home about 8:30 with a vanload of sleepy folks. Several people, as my grandma said, "You smell like a cow!"

Well hello and welcome back to my little space of the internet! The short hiatus dragged out much longer than I anticipated:) Anyway..... Martina (who probably checks my blog for updates the most) says I should hop back on here and stay for awhile. So, I'm here. I don't know how long or consistantly I will visit, but. . . . She also said I should blog about our wedding. I like that idea:) *** Friday afternoon we set up the reception, held at Maranatha. We had lots of help from our families and it went quickly and efficently.  Janette did a really good job on my flowers! Time for rehersal! Early the next morning, Austin came to pick me up from my parents house for the last time before we were married. We had our first look in the back yard of my parents AirBnB.

In between the many calls at work today, I thought of my blog. I used to spew my opinions freely and frequently, but life got busy and I kinda forgot about this little platform. No big opinions or profound thoughts today - just an update on life through some photos. Strawberry season occupied nearly all my mental capacity for the month of June. We were blessed with a good year, but boy oh boy am I glad that strawberry season is not any longer than it is. Treated our strawberry pickers to ice cream one day.   Martina helped me keep the shortcakes stocked - they definitely were a hit!! Ended June with summer Bible School. Our theme was aviation Planting strawberries for next year - we had some wonderful helpers and it went very well!! Low country boil with the Allgyers Several evenings spent with my family on the river A bridal shower Elissa's goat had a cute little kid Austin's sister Kayla got married and we were honored to be part of the bridal party A very fun day at Knoebels...
