Fall soccer is underway for us - what were we thinking letting the girls play soccer in the FALL??? We will soon be in the field so it will make for some busy weeks for a while!! They really enjoy it though and had been asking to play in the fall for quite some time which makes it easier to allow them when it's something that they WANT to do. We're off to a good start though, 2 wins and 1 loss. Dance has also begun but doesn't take as much time committment now that it's in Emmetsburg - no more driving to Spencer...although I really do miss my Walmart hour!!!


It would only figure that once we want to get harvest started, we would FINALLY get some rain!! I haven't mowed in almost 2 weeks because our grass was almost dead - but boy has it begun to green up since yesterday!! I'm gearing up for my first harvest in the tractor - I'm a little nervous since I'll be driving the grain cart and catching "on the go", so hopefully Chad and Nick are patient with me!! I'm looking forward to it though and glad I can help out.


We have a small sandbox under our slide but Kale got a digger for his birthday and we've been TRYING to find time to get a bigger sandbox built so he can play with his digger before snow starts flying, but time just isn't cooperating with us!!! As you can see by the picture below - he desperately needs one!!! Enjoy this rain!!!
