Lots of hard work!

It seems like there is a crunch going on right now. I have a list a mile long of odd and ends that need to be done around the house and so little time before the school year begins. Greg is working hard at scraping the house, this is our main focus right now and I know I have said this before but it is seriously tedious work scraping all the old paint off! Greg is so very particular about his work(as always)which is time consuming but in the end the results I know will be Great!

Yesterday Beth, Jim and Jeremiah went and picked up 6 contractor trash bags full of sweet corn for us to husk, un-silk, cut, and freeze. It is hard work but every Sunday we enjoy fresh sweet corn at Mama and Papas house for dinner.

Mama is multi-tasking here with Emrie Ann. Looks a little dangerous!

The kids didn't mind all the work, it is lots of fun to be out in the yard and play all evening long.

Jeremiah and Emrie Ann spent lots of time playing in the water splashing and spraying each other. Henry spent lots of time on mommys hip and even took a little snooze in his stroller while the corn work went on!

Praise God for our able bodies to do all of these jobs!
