Harvest

Us girls have this time of year all figured out…

Harvest.

Total Bliss.

Truly 'the most wonderful time of the year'!

Harvest season is not a holiday for my family.

It is a way of life.

So grateful.

Nothing Runs Like A Deere!

Can't really argue with that now can you?!

Harvest is coming to a close and someone is just getting warmed up.

As I kid I spent endless hours in combines and tractors. Snacks, homework, conversation, around and around the field.  Wouldn't have it any other way.

Andrew seems to know more about rural life and farming mechanics than a lot of adults will know in a lifetime.  I'm really proud of that and he isn't quite 3.

Kiddos these days just seem to pick up everything so fast.  Ask this kid about the process of harvest, he'll tell you right down to the detail of flour making noodles and donuts.  He has been coached, but he knows.

It was mentioned that a mouse went into the canola swath today and maybe ended up in the combine.

Bean translation later ... "We chopped a chipmunk!"

Details! Details!

Cookie baking with Grama is becoming very routine around these parts.
Diggers and dump trucks add to the ambiance!


Happy Fall, happy harvest, blessings galore.

FALL is here.

 and where I am from it is indeed one of the prettiest seasons...


Grama has the most amazing garden and her pumpkin patch is stellar this year. (Grama, is that a cucumber in your pocket?)

This is John Deere country...

(there is a Wee Bean in that John Deere with his Papa!)

Back in September...

I've been meaning to post some photos from this year's harvest.
The weather was amazing.
The sunsets were out of this world.

 

The warmth and stillness was something I wish I could package up and feed to city folks!

Harvest.
For Terra Velde Farms.
My family.

Harvest.
A very significant time of year.
