Summer is here is full swing! For us that means work, work and more work. Farmers make most of their money in the summer. There is little time for vacations but there is time for a few fun things here and there.

I’ve decided the only actual scheduled posts for this month will be the homeschool curriculum ones. I also have the 1920s apron tutorial ready to go! Any other posts that pop up will be surprises – to both you and me. ☺

Hershey is in the process of being potty-trained. She is one of two kids who have been very stubborn about the whole thing. Finally, this past week she has improved dramatically and actually prefers to wear her underwear rather than a diaper. You would think I would have it down by now.

I also taught Hershey how to blow dandelions. She is hilarious to watch because she crawls on all fours up to the dandelion growling the whole way {like a lion} then pounces on it, picks it, and blows her little lungs out. 

We did our annual cleaning of the garage. It didn’t take near as long as I thought it would {which was why I was putting it off for so long}. It’s nice to know we haven’t accumulated as much junk as I thought we had. In fact most of the stuff was just things that hadn’t been put back in their proper spots.

Have you tried fried pickles? Bon Bon watched a show on the cooking channel and decided to try some. YUM!! I love dill pickles the best but Mr. Ferrero Rocher prefers the bread ‘n’ butter ones.
