To market to market.......


After a rough week- Bella had a seizure, then was sick for two days, Katie was sick, and Daddy was feeling ill for a day- we actually had our second market! YEA!
This is the checkout area- we have honey, raw avave, some Young Living products and in the fridge we have fresh ground flour and fresh eggs...






This are the overage tables- when we get orders for say 20 avacadoes and they come in cases of 60...we have 40 avacadoes in "overage"- we have been eating alot of avacadoes lately!
Underneath the tables is everyones "pulled" order. We pull all the placed orders so all our customers have to do is come in and pick up their box.







Bella finds the work exhausting. I think that daddy would crawl in too if he could fit......

















Some of our wonderful produce.....
I have never seen such beautiful green bananas.... I dont know why, but this market the bananas were neon green- this bunch was the yellowest (is that a word??) bunch we got!

Baby chicks



We got some baby chicks awhile back...
Boy they are little here! I had not realized how much they have grown already! We got 8 of them. A kindergarten teacher had a hatching lesson at school and thought she had someone to take them. At the last minute the lady backed out and the teacher was desperate to find them a good home- so here they are! We a re hoping that we dont have 8 roosters.....






This one wanted to be included so badly- I couldnt just leave her out!

Cards haircut...


Daddy was going to take a "little" off the top......



















He took ALOT off the top!

Childhood days....

Watching the kids playing the last couple of days has made me discover how thankful I am that I stay at home with them and see all their milestones. I love them learning God's word right at our breakfast table everymorning. Bella even has her own little Bible she likes to look at while we read. Card ask now everytime we sit to eat if we are going to read the Bible. I love watching them learn new things and how their face lights up when they "get it". Card has been asking for days now "why did God make ____" today it was apples, flowers, and spiders. He loves to sit and do "school" with Katie and I and is so proud to tell his daddy "Mommy and Katie and Card-Card did school today!". Speaking of daddy, we are missing him dearly today (he is at a Christian retreat until Sunday night). Bella and Card were so excited to see daddy when we got home- they thought surely he was here by now. Janis (a friend from church) was over last night until midnight and she can attest to the fact that all Bella did was ask where daddy was. She kept insisting that he was outside- I guess that is because he goes out every night to put away the ducks. It was so sweet. I am missing my dear husband also.....I am praying for him and his spirtual walk though as he goes through this. Well- I believe I have gone on enough
for the day. God Bless!



Card and Katie play house often on the front porch. They have pots and pans, etc.. and they sweep ALOT! Here Card is waking up to go to "school" or "work" - depending on if he is the child or daddy that day.....











Katie doing housework in the porch house....















This is another day -today actually- Bella is playing on the trampoline. Notice her hair- we laugh so hard at her running around with her hair sticking up. Katie is actually under the trampoline talking to her right now....









Katie loves to be the mommy and wear Bella in the Ergo- of course it takes me a few minutes to adjust it the next time I need to wear it....
