This past hot, Friday I went out and cut a path through the weeds in back of our barn with our scythe. Here are some before and after pictures.

Cute Ducklings

P192

We had 16 ducklings shipped to our house a while ago and I forgot to post their adorable picture. They are fun to take around to the pill bug stashes under logs and see them gobble them up. Can you say free food? =)

The Pioneers are on their way

P181

We woke up super early (4:45 a.m.) to catch the first of two buses. They were both excited and really fit the part. Aren't they picture perfect?

The Book Arrives

P165

The book The Dragon Lords has arrived sooner than expected. The author waited until I came home today to open the package! She was so excited. We took it to the YW dessert auction to raise money for girls camp.
Everyone was very interested in seeing it and holding it. It was definitely lots of fun. Lots of praise and oohs and aaahs. She had big smiles practically the whole time.
I worked with her on the cover and some editing. It is only a proof copy, however, it is so fun holding it. The cover was fun to figure out how much space we had for the spine and all. Well enough talk here is the picture.
