We are still at work on the canola, but there is light at the end of the long, dark, tunnel! Last night my father-in-law figured he only had 4-5 hours left today and then we'd be done. Having one combine instead of two, has really made for a long, drawn out harvest for the canola.
I've been busy with our two kids. This morning it was booster shots for our daughter and when I got home with her, I had to run to our son's school and help serve their monthly hot lunch. If anyone told me a year ago when I quit my career that I would be busier now than when I was working, I would of told them they were full of it! There are some days I don't leave the yard, and it's still a challenge to get supper on the table. I don't know how I did it when I worked! To all you working parents out there, that still find time to volunteer and take your kids to activities, my hat is off to you!
Yesterday I put my husband in charge of photos, so here is some pictures from yesterday, from the farmers' perspective, enjoy!
