Corn....Beans....Carpet

It has been a long time since I had time to sit and write anything on here...We have been so busy this fall, it has been crazy.

Big Sis is now done with cheerleading and has a couple of week break before she starts Dance Line, so she is enjoying not having any practice for a few days..

Big Bro is getting all geared up to take his friend to the homecoming dance this weekend and we got all his dress clothes lined up.

Little Bro is growing like a weed...Hard to belive in less than a month he will already be 3 years old...It is amazing how much happens to those kids in 3 years! We have all the supplies for his Bob the Builder party, including plastic hard hats for the littles to wear. Need to just get those invitations sent out and we should be good!

Harvest is going well. We are done with wheat, edible beans, soybeans, and have started on the corn. Traditionally the sunflowers are done before the corn is ready, but not this year, we have had such a nice end of September and beginning of October so it hasn't had a good freeze to shock the sunflowers into drying down. We also got our grain dryer installed and we are putting it to use drying down the corn.

House projects are on the agenda for the last month or so. New carpet is being installed in our living room next thursday and so we are painting the living room and dining room this weekend. I am excited, we have lived here for 8 years and have never done anything with the living room so it is time. Plus we got a bigger TV and a smaller entertainment stand, so now there is more room in our living room, which helps.

I am looking forward to the few months, lots of big things on the Horizon including having my massive family over for Thanksgiving. A trip to the Twin Cities to do some Christmas Shopping. Another trip to the Twin Cities in December to see the Vikings Play. And last but definately not least the hubby and I are going away on a 4 day cruse in January. I am very excited I have never been on a cruise before...It should be fun.
