Saturday Morning Blues

Laura's friend spent the night last night.  Once they finished giggling at Mr. Bean, they tucked in around midnight, but had to get up and feed calves at 7:00 a.m.

While the girls went to do chores, I made pancakes with a double-yoked fresh egg (one of our chickens seems to do that regularly).

The girls took a long time, so I went to investigate.

"Look, Mom!  He's eating with the big boys, now!"

We have extra corn from one of the Big Guy's unfortunate spills. Rachael and the Big Guy filled buckets from the field last night.  Although the girls reimburse us for feed, anytime there's "wasted" corn in the field or on the road, it's free--all they have to do is retrieve it with a shovel and buckets.

Grace has been custom mowing yards this summer.  She was out until dark last night and didn't finish, so she's loaded and ready to go after running a 5k to benefit our local schools this morning.
