farm in july ~

inside the barn, outside the barn, on small equipment and large equipment.  by the cornfields, in the cornfields, driving dad's car on back field rows or riding behind him on the scooter.  time at the farm means time with dad -- and adventures that are always fun.

spending time on the mississippi river, feeling the water, skipping rocks, watching the ducks and eagles -- also a great way to spend time with dad.

Farm Fun -- that's how we do it!!

speedy and rosie ~

we love these two so much -- best little hamsters ever.
super special and smart too.


this breed, the tiny robo dwarf, don't usually like to be held and cuddled.
but zoe and ella have worked hard to train these little buggers and help
them understand it feels GOOD to be held by the girls who love you!!

Sweet Speedy Grace and Sweet Rosie Lynn, we love you two so so SO much!!!!  Thank you for giving us so many reasons to smile :)
