My weekend......

Wow-- here it is Sunday night again, and looking back at my blog......I can't believe I've blogged as much as I have so far! I really thought I'd only blog a time or two a week, but I really get some therapy about getting my feelings out on here! But can someone tell me where the weekend went!? I had many many plans on doing things around my house and in my yard and not ONE SINGLE THING got accomplished! I attempted to start laundry yesterday, still haven't finished it as I'm writing this! I went to Wal-Mart yesterday afternoon....and all my bags of stuff are still sitting on the kitchen table! That is SO NOT LIKE ME! My mother-in-law is rubbing off on me in more ways than one, good and bad! We did however get to spend some time this weekend together just being a family, out in the field, just loving life. Jaylee is absolutely in love with those combines and trucks! She had all 3 of those boys (Jeremy/Jerry/Jordan) wrapped around her finger.....all weekend long! I got so tickled this afternoon when Unky Munky stopped to pick her up to ride, and Pa got his combine and was in the lead. After a few rounds, Unky Munky got his combine closer to Pa's and the dust started blowing into Unky Munky's combine. He proceeded then to get on the radio and tell Pa that his baby girl wasn't enjoying the dust blowing in her way of seeing and she was trying to blow his dust away! So instead of just laughing, speeding up, or just ignoring it..... Pa proceeds to STOP and let them go AROUND him so she wouldn't be upset! Jeremy and I sat there in the pickup laughing and I looked at him and said.....You have got to be kidding me! Anyways, I cooked for the boys all 3 evenings, and loved every minute of it! It really hit me that I wasn't going to be doing this all summer. Even though I've only been on harvest for 4 summers.....it's amazing how it just gets into your blood! I love the preparation and delivering meals to the guys. Not only because I love to cook, but there's something about a bunch of hungry boys, standing around, devouring the meal, good or bad, because they flat out are tired, worn out and will eat anything! I have also found that these types of boys are the most appreciative eaters. I even enjoying turning my supper table into a tailgate! It's still as close-knit and family oriented as sitting down around a table! Overall.....it was another great weekend.....and I am looking forward to this 4 day work week and an extra long weekend!
