Kimball bought his first tractor. I told him he's a real farmer now ;)
He told me he's not a farmer, he only owns 1 small field...
We went for a ride and it's probably our last.
A family of 5 doesn't fit in the cab very well.
On a side note, Mantas told us she wants to be called "Sami" now.
That sounds like a whole different person...
It's old, but I think it's pretty good looking.
I told Dieter to smile. This is what I got...
One night we went to a camp ground with Kimball's family.
The kids loved it! Anything outdoors is a big hit.
Nellie is telling me she wants to swing.
Have you tried swinging lately?
My child bearing hips are much to wide for a swing!
Nellie and I went back and forth for a minute and that was enough for me.
Kimball was better to swing until he got dizzy. We must be getting old :)
I made Samantha and Nellie peasant dresses. This was the best picture I could get.
Dieter insisted on being in the picture with his sword.
Samantha thought she was pretty big climbing the net at a park.
Dieter was "Star of the Day" at church. He was so excited! He received it for being reverent.
Sometimes I wonder how he behaves at church.
One day we learned he was yelling, "Bombs-Away" right before he jumped off his chair.
And Dieter is pretty shy...
Kimball and I couldn't help but giggle at that story...
Kimball has killed our meat chickens.
They are now tucked away in our freezer.
Dieter likes to wear his shirt on backwards. Silly boy!
Sorry for the blood but it's part of raising our own meat.
It seems these days I can't get myself to bed before midnight. Goodness Gracious!
My children have already been sleeping 5 hours before I climb into bed.
Morning comes quickly...I'm saying this because I need to get to bed :)
Oh, I can relate to so much of this post! We will be taking care of our chickens very soon. The dresses look great, by the way!
