Fitting in family time

I am normally a homebody - I just like to be at home, cleaning, cooking, crafting, lounging. It is just who I am. Even though I definitely enjoy a night out every so often, I usually can only stand so much time away from my home. Jerrad really likes to be home too, just doesn't get to be there often due to traveling for work and the cattle we raise. Those cows keep him so busy when he is back from work on the weekends. Usually, my hubby is gone all day Friday and Saturday, and then Sundays after church he is most likely at the farm as well. He is the hardest working man I have ever met. I usually kiss him goodbye around 7:30 or 8 a.m. on Friday and Saturday and don't see him until at least 6 p.m., if I am lucky. 

Since our normal schedule doesn't include much family time, we have to fit it in as best we can. That means that this last Saturday, Little Man and I loaded up with him after chores to go over to a corn field and pull posts and roll up electric wire. Well, I actually drove the truck while Jerrad pulled posts and threw them in the back, and Parker just hung out in the back of the pickup - front of the pickup - my lap - anywhere he was occupied. 




We brought some snacks so that we wouldn't starve - we didn't get lunch until 4 pm, so we still starved HAHA.

Jerrad had to be cold out there even though he had many layers on. The wind was blowing and it was 30 degrees.
I enjoyed the warmth of the pickup!! :) 

Love from my family to yours, 
Dakota
