Dearly Missed

I had the opportunity to get to know Matt's Grandpa Jim the last 4 years. He was always so excited to see us and on a Sunday afternoon I heard stories of the past and watched him laugh. These memories will always stay close to my heart.

Jim - We will miss you dearly.

Babysitting & Baby Showers

This past weekend was busy. On Saturday morning I was one of four that put on a baby shower for Laura Berning, one of my close friends. Even with the wind, we were all happy with how it all came together.  

Not only did I help put on a shower but I was also asked to babysit Gunner, a chocolate lab. At first he was a bit excited and I wasn't quite sure how we were going to control him. After a run and playing with Shooter he calmed down pretty fast. We enjoyed watching him and I'm sure Shooter enjoyed the company. Maybe we'll get to watch him again some day.

Planting

 

Corn planting is in full swing. The last couple of weeks have been early mornings and late nights for Matt. This year I experienced first hand how long it takes to plant a test plot. Thanks to Matt's parents, we had plenty of hands to help. We planted most of our acreage to corn and will plant a little bit of milo. Now all we need is a good rain to get this crop year started off on the right foot.
