I can't believe it's been almost three weeks since I have posted. I'm not sure where the time has gone, but it has just been a rough summer. I haven't felt like myself. I haven't felt motivated and the things that I usually love seem overwhelming lately. Even though I'm doing fine, somewhere in the back of my head, I can't get over the fact that I have lost two very special people this summer. It's almost like things just aren't the same anymore. I know I still have so many things to be grateful for, and I am indeed blessed beyond measure, but some days are really hard. I'm struggling with being able to do things the way I want to do them (which means I struggle with my perfectionism). I hope that as time passes, I can get back into the rhythm of life. Getting back to blogging (even though I really don't feel like it) will probably be helpful for me, so I'm going to attempt to catch up on all the events that I've neglected :) I wanted to thank all of you who took the time to send me a message or comment and let me know you were thinking of me...I can't tell you how much that means. Also, I wanted to tell you that I have been ridiculously behind on answering emails, and I know that so many of you have sent me questions, and I haven't been able to respond. I want you to know this since about mid July, I have been behind on answering emails. At this point, I feel so overwhelmed that I can't fathom going back through them all and trying to answer. I'm simply going to start fresh from today, and keep up on them. If you have an question that I haven't answered, please email me again :)
Grain Harvest. We're finally done with our annual grain harvest. I didn't get a chance to take as many photos as I usually do, but here are a few from our harvest this year...
