Visitors from Washington

Well, its been long enough since I updated this that I forgot my username and password. It was a great summer on the farm. We are up to 27 calves (heifers and bulls) and needless to say this provides plenty to do in our "free time". Our latest batch of chickens has just started to lay and we are enjoying about a dozen eggs per day and anticipating that number to go up to 2 dozen. Time to start advertising and selling around the school again.

Biggest news around here has been the recent visit of our friends the Brewers and the Felmley's from Bellingham, WA. The two families went in together to buy a 1973 Winnebego Brave for the road trip. After buying it, they tuned it up, modified it slightly to fit their needs, and successfully drove it across the country and back! The 4500-mile trip was made with 7 children, all 4 or under. The time was such a joy, and a great chance to remember how the Lord blesses us in our marriages, our frienships and with our children! See the video below for some of the action!
