This picture sums up my husband and his love for ATVs....its quite intense! 


Scott popping a wheelie!  Notice we are ALL wearing helmets-safety first!

I think Andy looks like a little kid in this picture the way he is smiling!


Watch out!

Getting mud whipped at me as I try to get a cool shot!

Dad's beans-they are up to the boys' chests-can you even see Greta??

Happy birthday little girl-you were a total suprise, and continue to amaze me with how smart you are.  I am so blessed to have a little sister.  I love you!

4-H & FFA Fair 2011

For fair this year-Andy baked and Apple Pie and it was considered for State Fair!  Jacob made cookies and got a blue ribbon.  They both took crops to the fair and Andy came out with the top overall crop win!

Greta took a bucket bottle calf that she named, Curly!  She did great handling him in the ring!

Andy and Jacob both took pigs and chickens to the fair.  The boys got several awards for Showmanship and overall Market bird with their chickens.  Andy placed first in one of his classes with one of his pigs.

Jacob made this dresser in woodworking class and took it as a project.  He gets to take it to the State Fair!  :) 
Their are more pictures that I will be adding in further posts-this is just getting started!!

Watch out world!

 My little sister is so cool...she can drive a tractor! :)  And she is really good at it too!  But that does mean she is growing up way to fast!
You know it's summertime when the rye is cut and being raked!


These are the flowers in my bug.  Everyone always asks about them, and I thought this post needed a little color...so here you go!

I have a front view of all the goes on at the high school parking lot right out my office window.  Today, since it is the seniors last full day, they were planning a prank.  Now, I am expecting something extravagant, such as toilet papering the underclassman's cars, having a skip day, or something else crazy.  Nope, this class planned on parking in the teacher parking lot.  Hahahaha!!  Well, their plan was spoiled for some reason...maybe they have something else up their sleeve since they are in school until tomorrow at 11:00am.  When I graduated from high school, we went a little more crazy with the prank.  I, of course, had NOTHING to do with the prank, but my brother Kevin, who also graduated with me, did.  He took a GOAT, unbeknownst to my mother, and let it loose in the SCHOOL!!  Hahahahahahaha!!!  It had a small accident (it pooped) in the Senior hallway of ALL places!!  Kevin, of course, had to do some explaining when he went to pick the goat up...they almost didn't let him walk acrosst the stage to get his diploma!! 

School pranks make me laugh... :)

It's baby season...baby animal season that is!

I went to my parent's farm last night because my little sister, Greta, has been telling me about all of the goats and bunnies that have been having babies!  I am one of those people who just swoons over baby animals...like seriously obsessed!  They had baby calves, goats, and bunnies!  Here's some photos of what we saw...
Now, isn't he just the cutest little guy!?

Greta and her goat!

This little baby was my favorite!!  So stinking CUTE!
Baby bunnies just in time for Easter!  If anyone needs one give my parents a call...they have an abundance of bunnies!

My brother, Andy's, precious pigs!
