Farmer's Work

So much work has been going on around the homestead that our heads are spinning and extremely tired by the end of the day.  Sadie is finishing up her first year of kindergarten and we have been busy with class trips, graduation ceremonies and just getting things finished up for her.

Fresh spinach and radishes - YUM!

The potatoes are doing great this year. 

 Of course with potatoes come potatoe bugs. 

These are the potatoe bug eggs. They are underneath the leaves.

The only way to kill them is too crush them and smear them flat.  I get really excited killing these because it means less potatoe bugs in the long run.

My flower beds are all starting to bloom.

Summer is officially here.

My peonies are starting to bloom too.

While momma is out in the garden Seth is in

 doing the dishes! haha, I wish!

The haying has got underway.  We have 4 fields

done with 5 more too go.

Here are the cattle coming into the barnyard. 

 I'll have some more photos of the cattle in another post.

It does seem that everything has to get done once the summer is upon us doesn't it?
