I'm sorry we have been neglecting the blog for far too long. Summer has been so busy on the homestead. Daniel has been really busy working on the drying rack orders. Lots of projects and work going on. Here are some pics of what's up on the old homestead.

I love picking flowers fresh out the garden. They make me happy!

Oh, the joy of flowers.

Fresh taters out of the garden.

Talking about the garden, I have to tell you the squash are making it! Even though we had such cool weather.

The potato patch.

We have been picking bowls full of wonderful green beans!

My son built me a new raised bed for my fall garden.

I love it. He even pegged it together with left over dowels.

The boys have been up to all sorts of projects. This chicken tractor is all his own design. Daddy didn't even help. Proud boy.

Washer Women

This is our little girls own Peddler. They love to plunge clothes and hang them on their own rack.

Children are so creative!
