Finally found the time (here at work) to put this post together. I’m over my head in work this week…can’t seem to find the time for anything remotely personal. I’m up late every night doing something – working-out at eleven pm has got to stop. I’ve come in to work late everyday this week – over slept or something along those lines. I need to get to bed before one and when I actually lay down, stop checking facebook, instagram etc. just go to sleep.
Tuesday night I was invited over to see the eleventh child of some Amish friends of mine. It was born just the morning before. So adorable! I’m not a baby person and most of them aren’t cute just after birth and I won’t lie about them being cute either. But this little girlie was something else.
Isaac and I picked corn. Lots. Lots. Lots. and lots of it! Last night. I love doing anything with this incredible guy. Then we marched through weeds over our head to fill two bags with elder berries, for our sweet mom. Should have seen her face when she looked in the bags=) Made walking through all those tall weeds worth it.
So here’s this weeks photos are a day late…but there ARE here none the less=)
Enjoy!

I miss this place so much! sometime it hurts…I miss every little thing about it. I even miss the scalding attic in the summer. And I wouldn’t complain if I could JUST go down to the cellar, one last time.

Great pictures Olivia!! That bike show looks scary!! I like the ~outdoors~ picture the best! they are so pretty! That was a great picture! Aww... that is kind of sad seeing that picture of your old house! I miss the place too and I did not live there! LOL! It was always such great time to go to your house and visit with you:) <3 I miss it! And I know how you feel! We just left our childhood home... It is still so unreal! I miss the other place a lot!! :(
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace. I know right! it's hard to leave a place you love. I'm happy that we could share that place with so many others=)
DeleteI am happy you shared it with many others;) <3
DeleteWow you sound busy! That is so awesome that you have a aerial view of your old place. I have a few memories there myself. That hill is where Faith lost her teeth. So I guess I like that pic, but photography wise my favorite is probably, Outdoors, or Paper. Those cookies look so good! I hope you have an awesome less busy week! ~Hannah
ReplyDeleteThe three oldest kids gave that picture to the rest of the family for Christmas this past year. As you can imagine there were alot of tears... Yeah THAT hill...=) The cookies were good...lol
DeleteLoved the bike show picture.
ReplyDeleteAwesome right! lol those guys were crazy!
DeleteJust back from visiting family. The farm I grew up on has been bulldozed over and they are building a VA hospital there, so no going back.
ReplyDeleteawe I'm so sorry to hear that
Delete...isn't it a bit weird how we as ppl can somehow get so attached to a place that we called home?....
Loved the BMX guys pic... :) Fun times!
