Super Busy Saturday!


My alarm clock (Mark) wakes me at 5:30. I hit snooze ("wake me when coffee is ready"),this buys me half an hour. We enjoy our coffee on the porch, do morning chores, and by 8:oo am we are stacking 400 bales of hay that we made & unloaded Friday. We get home & run K2 to work & then make a trip to the dump. Mark leaves to go rake &  round bale. I do some dishes, hang out my laundry, and help K3 get ready for her Quenneville camping trip. Next, I run back to Brandon to pick K2 up from work. When I get back I have to water all the animals. Mark comes home & we have a late lunch. He wants me to drive the tractor & baler home from his parents house. Usually, I drive the Grandpa tractor, but today I was promoted!  First I have to help him jump start the Grandpa tractor . 
This is the Grandpa Tractor!


Then, down the road I went with the Case IH!


 Next, I follow him around the field with the truck & dump trailer while he loads the round bales. I truck them home. Now, it is evening & the K's are off to the rodeo. Mark & I move the ewe lambs & check everyone for worms. All the adult ewes needed worming, none of the  ewe lambs, and only half of the ram lambs. Not great, but not terrible either. We do chores & clean the barn. PHEW! Now it's 9:00, and finally everything is done. This means tomorrow we can spend the day on Lake George with my family & drop K3 off.

Sunday we leave @ 8:00 & enjoyed a perfect day @ the lake. I even took a nap in K3's tent!

Still looking for followers! Come on, help me out and spread the word - get a chance to win some yummy VT Maple Syrup!
