Hope was in a lovey mood today. Here she is all puckered up to give Beau a kiss in the van. . . 

And this morning when I was in the kitchen making breakfast, these two came down the stairs holding hands and then snuggled in this chair till breakfast time! Too sweet!

OK, I really will quit with the sunset pictures, but here is todays. I told Rod I think I will make a calendar for myself with a picture for everyday! Gotta have some way of using these! :-)

And this would be my boyfriend. He doesn't make it into the blog very much and so I thought I'd include this pic I took of him on the way to a cattle sale. 

And this would be the sunset from today. (Had to complete the day ya know!)

This is Jason who we hired to help bale. That's him in his baler with his pickup to the left. I stopped shredding for a second to lean out the tractor door and take this picture. 

What a nice way to end a rather stressful day!

So, I looked out this morning and had to grab my camera! This first shot is as I was walking out. 

Then I zoomed in . . .

Check it out! Double sunrise!! :-)

These are some of the sunrise, sunset and sky pictures I've taken in the last 3 months. Rod says I'm addicted and perhaps I am. I love how they make me feel! I've always been fascinated by the clouds and so impressed with how God uses the sky as a canvas to create a different, incredible painting, every single day of our lives! No two skies are ever exactly the same!! How can we not be awed by that!?

This tree below is the landmark of where to turn to get to our house.

This military helicopter has been passing over our house for the last 3 days. It's a pretty massive piece of machinery - this is the kind that can carry tanks! The other thing I liked about this picture is the moon in the background. This was taken at about 11:00am.

This is the view out the back window of my tractor when I am shredding. The rows in the middle have been shredded and you can see the windrows on either side. The red at the bottom of the picture is my shredder. I can shred 8 rows at a time. 

I've posted pics of our baler before, but here is one just as Cody is letting a bale out.

And what post of mine would be complete without a sunrise or sunset pic? Here is the sun going down today.

Happy Friday to ya!

The girls and I spent 8 hours in the tractor, shredding today. To pass the time, we took pictures of ourselves. The first two are ones that Hoper took all by herself - can you tell? (The dark ones are because it is pitch black outside. Not necessarily in order - sorry!)

 Kaylee took this one of Hope:

Hoper took this one of Kaylee and I - close quarters, so not a lot of room to zoom out!

Here are two I took of the girls in the tractor after Daddy delivered lunch!

Aren't they cute tractor buddies?
