| The corn not only grew taller than me, it even produced edible ears!! |
 |
| Since this was our first successful corn harvest, everyone wanted to participate in the harvest. |
 |
| The shucking took much longer than the plucking...er, harvesting. |
 |
| Heather (& Mandie who was on her mandatory union break), washed the corn. |

| The Anaheim peppers did great this year~I can already taste the enchiladas. |
 |
| Grapes from my brother-in-law's vines~We picked 3 boxes that are currently being made into adult grape juice. |
And finally, a bittersweet good-bye. My son-in-law took a youth pastor position about 250 miles away. After having my precious daughter and her family with us for a year, 250 miles seems like another continent away.

It must be quite on the homestead without the family there. Hope he enjoys his new position :)
What a beautiful, busy, productive family! Blessings:)
I can sympathize with you about having the grands so far away. Three of ours are 275 miles and on the other side of Atlanta. There is never a good time except 2 AM to go through there. I hope your grandma heart can stand it!
I'm waiting for Christmas, too. Maybe being so busy, will make the time go faster!
You have been busy, busy!!
Congrats to your SIL on his new position! :)
