Between "work", new babies, work around here in the farm,there has been no time to blog!
This week I turned 48. Although we do not really celebrate birthdays, it does still mark another year older!
Scott and I had planned to go out of town, to see our youngest son and his wife, (we wanted to anyway) but I have been busy helping to cover for another midwife, so those plans were canceled.
Then we thought maybe we would get the older three grand children for the weekend, and take them to the drive in, but that too had to change when I got busy this week with births!
So we plan to get the grand children another weekend!
We thought we would still try to go out for the evening...since we have not went out other than going out to dinner...and I have been wanting to go to the drive in for over a year.
It is just something fun to do that we use to do all the time!
It worked to go this weekend, which happened to also be my birthday day...I did not think about that until two days before! I actually forgot it was my birthday this weekend.
Friday evening there was a storm that went thru...a really bad one. So no trip to the drive in...since we would not be able to even see the show! Instead we went Saturday evening.
The show began about 10:00 pm, and ended about 1:30 am. We saw Marmaduke, and the A team. It was like a blast from the past (that is a movie too!) seeing everyone sitting out in lawn chairs, or on top of their autos, children playing catch with a beach ball, and people just visiting! Such a simple time it was years ago...when going to the drive in was a normal thing to do on the weekend...
We had a wonderful rest on Sabbath-but had a funeral in the morning, headed out to attend that and we went to the wrong place. By the time we figured that out, and if we would have kept going -we would have ended up being late-over a half an hour so we did not go. Frustrating to make such a stupid mistake. (so sorry Pat)
A week ago, we worked in the garden...here are some photos of my garden... above is some of the onions, cilantro (in bloom) broccoli, celery and pepper plant in the lower right corner...
Here is the lettuce...
One of the pepper plants, (we have about 20-25 of them planted) see the small pepper started on the upper part of the plant...
One of the rosemary plants, and to the lower right of the photo is one of the stevia plants...you can see the chives in the back ground...
ok, need to get some things done then stop for the evening...keeping busy today too!
Greeted a wonderful little Amish baby girl this morning,the families first girl-they have a boy now that is a year old, so he is now a big brother.
I planted some stevia this year. What do you do with yours?
