a routine day?

Clothes on the line was always a special and daily event with my family and continues to be.  It is especially delightful to have those little clothes to put on there with the big farm clothes.  The kids came out with me today, and I remembered how nice the clothes basket is for the babies and how cute are the results!  Gus declined climbing in too, and played on his bike with the dog jogging along. 
Lilly is sunbathing too.

Little girls in yellow dresses need to be sitting in the midst of dandylions!  Thankfully she couldn't pick them very easily and grandma was able to keep them out of her mouth.  But there was no getting her attention away from those bright yellow flowers to look up at the camera.  This is still pretty special though...

A picture of sunshine!!!

Gus has a handfull of dandylions to put in his wagon. 


Grandma cut off his jeans to make him shorts... hope it's OK mom?!?
Picking every last one...
A dandylion just adds something to this precious pose by the grain bins.

Gus was busy picking up some screws around the bin for grandpa.  Cute but we were spoiled with the best a few days ago...

Little girlie giggled as she dug her toes into Lilly the dog's soft coat... Lilly liked it a lot too! 

Gus resting in the shade with a handful of screws.  He thought they were pretty wonderful!

Then I noticed that Gus had put some of the feed that Grandpa feeds the cows in his little wagon!  He tried to feed it to Lilly, but then we went to look for some cows to feed.

We ended up in the pasture - the grass is really growing fast!

Little girlie looking at the cows up in the sky!  It is a really steep hill down to the creek at the bottom of the pasture.  It got to be a bit too much so we turned around.  Sometimes this old grandma just feels her age and realizes she isn't as young as she used to be.

Gus waiting for grandma to help..."Let's go back Gus, OK?" 

Little sweet Birdy thinks that her toes are pretty special tasting.  It is time to go and visit with my husband farmer, who is in due to the rain.  Jesus, keep all safe - most especially the farmers.  Jesus, we trust in YOU.  Bless-bless, Barb/grandma

The crucifix that Nancy and Gus made me for Mother's day with the new leaves!
