Thoughtfulness

Ellie is a very loving girl. She is always thinking of someone and wanting to do something nice for anyone. That is why I love it when she picks me flowers. She loves beautiful things, even things that aren't always beautiful she finds beauty in them. I have come in the house before to three cups full of dandelions that she picked for me. No joke there was at least 50...but I know she thought of me and wanted me to feel loved with every single one she picked. This was the last bouquet of flowers she picked me.

Tokyo's Steakhouse

We celebrated Bob's new found freedom with dinner at Tokyo's steakhouse. Here are a few random shots.
Kylie and her mini me...

All five Girls!

Lucy was much impressed!

Those eyes!

Jorja and Ellie both have the big eyes...so cute...nothing more needs to be said!

Bob's big day!

Well 8 years in the making and it is finally here. Bob was able to quit his job at Fastenal! He is now farming full time. Kazie got a little excited and on his last day of work she decided to throw an impromptu party at the farm. She bought a banner

Made cupcakes

Decorated with balloons

And invited as many of the Bob's Corn crew as could make it

Now is a time to focus on family and farm instead of Fastenal!

My rock collector

We went down to the field the other day to watch some work that was going on. We all loaded up on the "Yellow Machine" and the Rhino, there was quite a few of us. As all of us adults are looking at the work and chatting here is Abi the little rock collector gathering "special" rocks.

I am not sure if Tyler liked them in the Rhino but he is good enough to not say anything!

When the kids get the camera!

I just downloaded all of my photos from my camera. I have been neglectful of this blog lately. When I went to view the photos I found this one...

This Ellie with a picture she drew and words around it. Can you tell she is proud? I love these little surprises!
