What an amazing weekend we have had!

I will say, the weather had A LOT to do with that!

Spring is finally here! It has been in the upper 70’s all weekend – amazing!

My photographer has a job now, so you can imagine I am filling in for her in many areas of our life here at home! Taking photos is one of them….and I am forgetting to do it!

This weekend I made sure I took some photos – I took 109! Whoops! I had a lot to choose from!

I did not start taking photos first thing Saturday morning though. Saturday was a farm work day!

The guys were in the shop early and most of the morning getting things up and running! I was on kitchen duty!

Then in the late morning they headed outside to work on the land.

Lane wanted to fly his kite! It was a great day for kite flying. The littles joined him! And then Blake joined them to help them out!

While I was there snapping those photos, I turned and took a photo of the south side of our old rambling farm house. So much I never want to forget! Can you picture how far it is from the kitchen to the master bedroom – one end to the other?!?

The kids have been outside all weekend long! Playing hard!

We ate lots of good summer like food! The guys grilled burgers for us.

Our favorite three people spent the afternoon with us after church today! My heart is SO full! It was SO fun!!! Good food, great fellowship, beautiful weather, and we went for a walk after lunch!

There are buds on our trees! Did I say spring is really here!?!

The south side of the farm is my favorite spot. Such beautiful views! And a swing to swing on!

We checked out the herb beds and found lots of things growing already!

Hello chives – you will not last long!

Hello parsley – you will not last long either!

Tate came up to me with a piece of sage and said, “Mom, Mom!! Smell this!! It smells like our sausage!” Smart boy, there is sage in our breakfast sausage!

I took this photo next – Lane’s kite from yesterday is stuck up in a tree. Bummer!

We could not drag ourselves inside! But soon it was time to say good night to our favorite people!

We came inside the house and Addie Mae said, “Can we just have three Sundays every week?” Great idea, Addie Mae! I agree!!!

Our weekend is over. I am hanging on SUPER DUPER tight right now to every last second the Lord sees fit to give us on our farm. The memories from our time here the last seven years are tucked so deep in my heart that it feels like my heart will burst. We have been SO blessed!!!

Hope you all had a great weekend too!!
