Labor Day at the Farm...

Happy Labor Day and boy did we labor! LOL Kelsey had to decorate football players' houses today for the upcoming game, then had to work the second shift at the donut shop. The rest of us headed to the farm...Before I tell you about our day, let me tell you how much I loved turning onto our lane and seeing the darling couple from a few farms down roaming about on their four-wheeler. They are the loveliest people! Here was my first view approaching the farm today:

Sorry for the fuzzy pic, but it was taken with my cell phone while driving on the dirt road!

So, we arrive and get to work! Alex and I cut all the grass, which took about four hours, while Noel tended to the fields. He and I then checked on the status of the ornamental corn and look how wonderful it is...

Doesn't it look great? These will make awesome decorations for the upcoming season...

Then, I decided to take a break on a newly adopted glider/swing, given to us by another couple from a nearby farm. It is THE most comfortable thing in the world! I'was surrounded by doggies (two under the swing, one alongside) who also decided to take a break...



Then, harvest time...cucumbers, radishes, tomatoes, zucchini, watermelon and sweet corn. Dang, you should taste the sweet corn...it is soooo friggin good!

Anyway, hope everyone had a happy and healthy holiday and enjoyed it as much as we did!
