Finally all together!




Well, it finally happened. We had all nine of us together at once. Stephen was home for a week, some of that time in Gravelbourg and some in Saskatoon. He got connected with a little combine dust to remember his prairie roots and a little of the hustle and bustle of being around two babies to remind him of fun his family can be :-) He brought his climbing gear with him so most of the family went with him to a wall climbing facility, his Dad included! That was fun to watch, but I didn't try. Well, someone needed to hold Linaya and Josiah!! (Pick me!)


Harvest is over except for cleanup on weedy patches and sloughs. We are tired and ready to be finished and rest up. It all went well with no really no holdups this year for weather or repairs. We have had some work done on our house that started July 1st and has dragged out with a few delays. I'm also ready to have that finished and to get things finally cleaned up.


Fall is definitely here. I have started checking the thermometer to see if it is freezing or has frozen. I don't have a huge garden, but there are still things like squash and tomatoes that should be rescued. The leaves are starting to turn colors which is beautiful and sad at the same time.
