The Farmer's Market Begins!

Hello everybody!

Hope you enjoy some pictures of our farm, Sarah's birthday, and our very first farmer's market of the year!

 Strawberry picking in our field. Yummmm!

 The garden.

 Blackberry flower art.

 The chick check-up. We have moved the smaller chickens into the green house and hopefully will be adding rabbits as well.

 "What is THAT thing?!"  :)

 It's Sarah's birthday! And if you take the time to count aaaallllll those candles, it will be 21. :)

 She still has good lungs!

 The candle smoke was too much for Caleb. :)

 A mocha cheesecake!!!!!!! SOOOOOO good!

 A happy boy!

 How else to celebrate a birthday than to go target shooting?

 Everybody had a great time including the neighbor boy who came over as well.

 The range marshal for the day making sure the safety rules are applied to the max.

 The targets. The closer cans are for the beginners to shoot.

 Safety first! Make sure to wear safety glasses!

 Present time!

 Safety glasses for Sissy when she goes shooting! :)

 A Texas sheriff star from Josiah.

I found the "Sisters by Heart" figures from Willow Tree.

 Random art....you know....when you get bored and you don't know what to do and all you have is a camera in your hand.

~~~~~~~~~~

And now.....drum roll please.....

The farmer's market!!!! Yay! We did it! This is the Milford Hospital and everybody seems happy to see us there.

 A pause for a picture.

 The baked goods section. This is later on just before we closed and there were no more items to re-stock.

 The soap table. It smelled very good!

 Another view.

 Mixes, jams, and produce.

Mom had this really cute set-up for our tracter soap. :)

Thank you for looking!

A Berry Fun Time.

This week we went strawberry picking at a local farm. We have a strawberry patch of our own but it is not big enough for all the jam making we do. So off we went and had a great time of pickin' and playin'.

 The hard working helpers in the field.

 Micah was such a big help. He would get the biggest strawberries! :)

 One of the cutest strawberry pickers out there.

 He wanted show how much he picked (with some help). :)

 We are so happy to have Nana visiting us from New York! She is so much fun and is a strawberry picking veteran.

 "Almost full!"

 Sarah. Oh! Happy birthday, sis! That's right folks! She's the big 21.

 Finished! Alltogether, we picked 105 pounds of strawberries!

 Uh-oh! Somebody is snitching the strawberries!

 The group shot.

 Playing on the playground after picking.

 Ready....

 GO!

 Everybody tried out the monkey bars. :)

 Smile!

 Being goofy :)

 Sarah and Nana with some awesome cider doughnuts.

 Running on the tires and trying not to fall off.

 A pause for a picture.

 Micah and Mommy went to look at the goats.

 The babies were so cute!

 The big billy goat.

 Some guinea hens.

 On the way home, we saw all these police cars parked on the side of the road. There was a civilian pick-up truck parked there as well and a man was talking to an officer and pointing into the woods.

 They had brought in some police dogs as well.

 We made it home and started processing our harvest of strawberries.

 A lot was frozen and most was made into jam that we will be selling at our farmer's market which will be starting up next week.

Who knew art could look so tasty!

Have a great day everyone!
