Summer, haying, and swimming

I can't believe summer is already here! And now it's over 100 degrees outside.  Animals have been needing special attention with water and shade these last couple of days.  The grass isn't growing at all.  We need rain!  We have actually been watering the pasture Daniel's cows are in. 

A few weeks ago, we went haying in a friends pasture.  Then we realized we forgot water.  So the Tin Roof kept us going with vitamin water.  Or at least some of us.  

 Then we had to go deliver the hay which is much more fun, especially on the really steep hills. 

Swimming has been the highlight of the summer.  I don't know how many

 times we've gone.  And the summer has just begun!  School is out, and God is so good!!!

Too Cute

 

I quickly grabbed the camera after seeing this and took it through the glass door. 

Pictures!

Here is a picture of one of my favorite dresses that I made for one of my friends. It didn't turn out like it was supposed to, but I like it.

My dramatic sister! She's a great poser.
Okay, so the picture needs a little cropping. There is a seam in the waist, and it wasn't supposed to be there, but with the right kind of belt, it looks fine. I didn't use a pattern because I didn't have one, and I didn't feel like following one!

It's been muddy here at our farm. REALLY muddy. And it is still raining!

Can you tell it's been muddy? Some of that mess was when my brother helped a neighbor paint tar on walls. And yes, that is edited. I had fun with that!
