Pictures say so much more....

Our new Drift wood..... It took two tow trucks and a bob cat to recover it from the river bank, only to discover it was even heavier then we though as our tractor can't move it to were we planned to put it. We planned to cut the long piece in two, but i am hoping our neighbour will move the other piece for us.
Getting ready to make magic.....
Moving half of it to the back yard.....
The start of our new fire pit seating...
Sabina has a new bike......
Junes bike is all put together and ready, but she is still having a little trouble getting the hang of it.
Autumn also got a new bike for her 13th birthday, but everyone ate it on her.....
June turned 7....
We had a great easter with our first outdoor easter egg hunt in years......

The G is back now, rebuilt and ready to prove itself......


We are ready to start seeding any day as it looks like the weather is warming up again this week. I am sure there are many things i am forgetting about but it's hard when you only post every two months.

Going to be an awesome week!!!!


Well after the rain on sunday, all we could do tonight was head out for a mountain bike ride. We took along one of autumns friends for her first try at riding trails. Was a beautiful night and enjoyed a relaxed ride enjoying the beauty of nature. We then did some pavement riding over to a playground near the beach, and then a ice cream stop on the way home.

Our field no longer has huge lakes on it anymore but is still very soggy, i am hoping another day of sunshine and wind tomorrow will allow me to be able to get and and weed some higher sections. And hopefully full tilt weeding by wednesday and thursday.

Since Canada day is thursday i am hoping to so on the river boat cruise in town and catch the fireworks that night. Hopefully with a smile on my face about how clean my field is. Fingers Crossed!!!!!!

Where does it all come from?????



Well we had two very productive days friday night we cleaned up one really weedy section of field, then saturday got half the white pumpkins cleaned up and a large chunk of another section done. Then we were chased in by the rain at super time, we ate and watched a massive downpour, i felt so good about everything we had worked up and loosen from the 3 weeks of wetness we have had here.

Woke up to the sun this morning, and figured by tonight i would be able to walk the field to see how everything was looking, only to see the darkest clouds come rolling over the house. And then mother nature show me once again who really is in charge!!!!!!


So now it's off to town for some groceries and a then cook a nice super and a relaxing movie with my family. Sounds good to me!!!!

Friday night time to Hoe it up!!!!




Could it be??????? THe rain has stopped?????? THe forecast was calling for another big downpour this weekend, but they have just changed it to a week of sun and nice temps. So with the row cultivator hooked up and hoes in hand it is time to get the field cleaned up.

THe pumpkins we have reseed on june 14th are poking though the ground beautifully and look great. and even though there is the odd ugly messy patch for it being over a month since we seeded it's looking pretty good. ( till i think about the white pumpkins patch, but that is another story)

Off to work
