{Over the River and Through the Woods to Grandma's House We Go}

On Saturday, we went to visit my Dad's family. His mom....Grandma Milly and his brother Mark and his family. We had a lovely day and Jack was perfect. We had a great visit with Gran when we got there. She needed a few things done around the house, so my dad and I tried to tackle those...We got most of them done!

Then off to see Uncle Mark...He fell from his grain bin about a month ago and shattered his heel. So it has been very hard for him not to be able to help with the harvest. When we got there, we had managed to climb in the combine and was driving! It was great to see him and his family. We did get to witness a typical day on any farm when the grain wagon and the tractor got stuck in the field...Really wet! After some help from the nice long distant relatives (The Geisler Brothers) up the road they got the tractor moving again. Way to go Jacob!!!

We had a great visit with everyone. It was great to see Grandma and visit with her especially. Grand thanks for the delicious pie!!

{Prayers for David's Mom}

Please continue to keep David's mom in your thoughts and prayers. She is meeting with her surgeon tomorrow to determine whether or not to put her Port back in. I am sure they will. When I took her to Chemo last week, we found out that she will be continue with Chemo treatments every other week for the next 3 months and then they will do another scan. They are very concerned about the lymph nodes located under her chest plate. The have increased in size and can't be removed due to their location. Please continue to pray for Sue's miracle to happen....CANCER FREE

{Harvest Completed}

After a long and frustrating fall all of our corn and beans have been harvested! AMEN!! This was a very frustrating fall for many reasons....WEATHER, breakdowns, elevators closing early and a lot of other small things, but we managed to get through it all safe. David finished up the fall field work yesterday after a few very long days. Just in time for them to be putting down the fertilizer which was perfect. Leo still has some corn to harvest, but Dan was home this week and helped out....Which was really nice for David so that he could concentrate on his Edward Jones business and complete his field work. Thanks Dan! Hopefully, next year will be back to a more normal year!

P.S. Jack got to ride in the tractor with David and I...I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures...He really enjoyed it though.

{Jack & Grandpa Jim Sleeping}

Dad was babysitting Jack and they both fell asleep. Mom snapped the picture and they didn't even wake up. What a great photo!

{Halloween - Jack O Lantern}

Our little man was a JACK - O - Lantern! Cheesy yes I know. But, super cute nonetheless. We took Jack to Gridley in the morning to spend time with David's parents. Then came home and handed out candy to some one the kids in our neighborhood. Jack seemed to like seeing all of the other children. We then took Jack to my Nana & Papa's for a surprise visit. They really enjoyed seeing him. Then it was off the Grandma D's and Grandpa J's. Grandma D is getting around much better after her knee replacement...Only using a cane now. They really enjoyed getting to see Jack as well. All in all a good Halloween! It could have only been better, if they could have gotten in the field. Praying for no more rain!!!
