Oh, the cuteness!

We're busy getting ready for fall at our house, even though it doesn't look like it when you drive in our yard.  Ha.  Matt's to-do list is a mile long. I try to help a little, but there are things that I can't help with, so much of it is left for him alone.  We finished hauling hay on Saturday, so that was a great thing to check off.  We still have to finish siding the house and put on soffit and faschia.  Well, I guess Matt does. That's one thing I'm no good at helping with.  He's way up on the roof doing things.  There's also manure to haul, fences to fix up in the yard, cows to haul home, and the list goes on and on.  Good thing he's got Clancy and Cliff at home to help during the day. They make all things run smoother.

I'm excited for things to get finished up so we can clean the front yard up.

My kids have been exceptionally cute and fun lately (not to brag or anything)...

Here are a few cute pictures from the past weeks:

These 2 with their goggles; Actually, this was from earlier in the summer, but it's worth showing now because it's awesome.

Clancy and Cliff spent the day with Auntie Nikki last week when I was subbing. Clancy's great help in the kitchen, as you can see.

Making pizza at Auntie's exhausted him. :)

We celebrated Clancy's 1st and his cousin Haaken's 2nd Birthdays, as well as Haaken's brother Swede's baptism a few weeks ago.  Clancy liked making ice cream for his party. 

We made:

vanilla

mint chocolate chip

strawberry

coffee

They were all amazing. I love homemade ice cream.  Clancy loves homemade ice cream, and he's adorable.

I'm sad that I don't have any new pictures of Clarence to show you.  I'll get some from my camera soon. He's had amazing luck with his garden this year, so I'll put his pumpkins on to show everyone. 

Here's one of his pumpkins, which was sold to my cousin Barb and is now living in Iowa.  He told her he'd sell it to her ONLY if she'd send him all the seeds when she was done with it.  

He has big plans for a huge pumpkin patch in the horse pen next year.  I can't wait to see what it turns out like (it'll be weeded, watered, and perfect).

Until next time, have a great day, Babay!
