Summer's End

Our summer ended with a BANG! (Spoiler alert: our data entry person--this mom--couldn't figure out how to get pictures in the right order.)





School has started. That must mean summer's over. Here are a few updates and pictures of life here in Iowa.

The soybeans look amazing--chest-high on the girls, which is an incredible height, even by Midwest standards. Since money's in the pod (not the plant), size doesn't count. Our farmer drives from field to field pulling and counting both corn and soybeans.



August. When August came, there was no way to put off packing for college. Miss Grace had plenty of help.



Instead of adding to it, I stayed out of the way and and took pictures instead.

The gang's all here


By the middle of the month, we were on our way!

Almost.

We stopped in Wyoming for fun and games with Grandma and Grandpa--all of us!

Fishing with Grandpa
Climbing Heart Mountain
And ended with a BANG! Coming next, harvest....
