Those who are following the blog will see that I am way behind on posting. I usually do the blog in the morning as the evening internet is very slow. The last couple weeks we have had guests at the farm and I am the breakfast cook. Theses guests were such incredible hard workers that we were hard at it all day every day . The work that they got done, and the hearts and lives that they were able to touch is more then I could ever begin to share or explain in one blog post.
Today I will post a bunch of pictures and over the next week or so I will go into more detail of some of the highlights .
