Day 131: Potatoes Anyone???

Once again I apologize for the lack of blog posts.  My life is anything but boring which means sometimes a lack of getting things posted on here.  I do have some photos ready for a few days so you are in luck now!!

Last weekend I was able to head out to my parents farm to help my mom dig up potatoes.  After a morning of digging the plan was then to drive on the combine.  God, however had different plans for us.

I did get to help with potatoes.  And well, lets just say mom's garden produces!!!  Potatoes everywhere.  The one mom is holding in the picture is an example of how big some of them were.  We also found some shaped like a teddy bear and a duck.  It was a great morning working with mom.  We dug one plant and it filled half a 5 gallon pail.  Every three plants we had a full pail and where hauling them down to the cold room.

That afternoon I planned on sitting on the combine with mom while we worked on canola.  However, after a quick lunch and a even quicker nap the rain started to come down.  Instead, mom and dad got a little bit more of some much needed rest.  We ended up then going up north to put some cows in that had gotten out.  And then from there we ended up heading to town to have supper.  Then mom and dad came to my house and helped me with a bit of a 'to do list'.

Thanks you mom and dad for a great Saturday!  I treasure you guys!!!

Day 129: Here's 24 Roses!

There is nothing better then having flowers given you by someone you love.  I know most of you are thinking right now..."oh, that man of Tasha's, he is just spoiling her."  Well, these roses didn't come from him.  These came from her wonderful parents.  My mom swung by my work and dropped this off.  It was a pleasant surprise just to see mom let alone the beautiful flowers.

However, when I did send my man a pictures of the flowers he did mention that my parents have now one upped him.  A little healthy competition that may benefit me.

Thanks mom and dad.  I really don't think it should have been me getting the flowers.  I think it should have been me buying them for you.  For being the great parents you are to us.  For always walking beside us and for loving us through everything.  Love you guys!!!

Day 128: Thank Goodness for my Mom!!!

One more camping story...

So my parents were nice enough to allow me to use their 5th wheel.  However, it did come with a few ummm...issues.

Saturday morning I was warm so I opened the vent on top by my bed.  Then the wind started.  And well the vent came off the rollie thing.  Well, I thought that maybe I could take the screws out of the vent and fix it.  That didn't work.

Thank goodness for my amazing mom.  She crawled up there like a trouper.  She fixed it and even gave me a wave.  Needless to say, we found out how dusty it is up there when she got down.
