Almost AUGUST!

We're just over three weeks from a new school year. Still a little time, but so much we want to do! Yesterday we did the annual corn process. Dad and Travis picked, we all shucked until we had a head start, and then we let the cutters start. Once we had some cut, Gariann went inside to do the cooking and cooling. We started around 7:30 and had picked, shucked, cut and cooked about 130 dozen ears. We don't have a final count on the number of bags in the freezer yet, but I'm guessing it will exceed 250 pints. We were a great team, and we'll all have corn to eat this winter even if we have nothing else!








































Zach finally agreed to get his hair cut! I think he's so much healthier looking and handsome with his buzz cut! Wyatt got his cut several weeks before Zach, and at first he thought he looked "like a dork". He didn't, of course! I think their buzz cuts are cute!
