It's been a long few weeks




So we have literally spent the last few weeks working at the farm. I have have split and canned 60 quarts of green beans (yeah done for the year now), shelled and put up about 10 quarts of peas, shelled and put up 6 quarts of october beans, canned our cucumbers to make pickles and I am exhausted. 'Tis harvest season though I guess. I can't complain too much because by the time the season is over we'll be set for the year on vegetables. It's a lot of work, but so worth it to have fresh home grown veggies all year long. Plus it makes making side items for dinner a cinch. The baby has been kicking up a storm, very strong little boy we have coming. Sam ans Jake have been doing well. We've gone to several baseball games which they love. They are also taking swim classes. Sam is awesome. he can already swim with a flotation device and even swim under water for a short distance. Jake is doing great too. He was not a lover of swim classes from the beginning though. He refuses to close his mouth no matter what we try so he is not a fan of going under water. He has however improved in his swimming ability and kicks and digs like a champ now. He also enjoys the classes now which is awesome. Well, that's about it. Gotta go pack for our beach trip. Leaving on Saturday and can't wait.
