Ummm... Strawberries


This big boy was very delicious.
I love strawberries. I love Oregon strawberries.
I love warm, from the sun, Oregon strawberries.
My tummy is full of strawberries.

My days of unemployment are coming to an end. Our produce market will be opening up in the next ten days and I will be crazy busy for the next two months. A good crazy busy.

Here are a few of the Farmers Wife Quilt Along blocks I have made. I have completed over 50 blocks... but I still have many more to piece. This will be one of my summer projects. I find humor in a farmer wife piecing a Farmers Wife Quilt. And with regards to the book... I don't know that I would encourage my daughters to marry a farmer. I would, however, encourage them to marry someone with which  they share a sense of humor  and someone who loves their job. VERY IMPORTANT! My Mr. Farmer loves his job! I have never heard him say that he did not want to go to work. I am glad he likes his job, and basically our life style.

It has been a while...

Things that have happened since I last blogged:
  • My favorite dog, Cole, passed away


  • The youngest Farmers daughter graduated from collage

 
  • Completed a few quilts 
  • Started a few quilts
  • Attended our first University of Montana football game
  • Vacationed on the Oregon coast, during that dry and sunny week in December
  • Skied in Montana

  • Road trip through California, Arizona and Nevada... chasing the sun
  • Ate too many pieces of pie that the oldest Farmers daughter bakes  


But now it is mid- May and it is time for me to go back to work on the farm.
