Knolltop Farm Wife

Good morning from a soggy Knolltop! It's been raining off and on since last night. Okay, here's an update on the family who I asked you to pray for. Jessica Wier and Jackie Wier were in a car accident in Idaho. Jessica was killed while Jackie was treated and release from the hospital. Please continue to pray for this family. Also, I could use some prayer too. My mom and I are headed for Harrisburg, PA tomorrow for three days for the All-American Dairy show to cover it for Dairy Agenda Today. So, yes, that's how I can go, certainly wouldn't be going if I were footing the bill! So please pray for my family here while I'm gone. I know they can handle things without me, but I don't want any major things going wrong while I'm gone. Then as soon as I come home we will be doing last minute preps for the fair. Oh, I am so not ready for the fair! Now it's time to bed the barn and get the cows back in. Later!

For those of you who are inclined to, I ask that you stand in the gap for a local family who have experienced tragedy. I just heard on the radio that, Jessica Wier, a 19 year old local gal was killed in an auto accident while out west. The family lives on a farm in the southern part of the county. She was apparently riding in a vechicle with some others, including her twin sister, who is in intensive care in a hospital out west. Please pray for her parents, they homeschooled these twin girls and they are one of the nicest families I know. I'm sure the family would appreciate your prayers at such a difficult time. Thank you!

It is another wonderful day here on the Knolltop . It's sunny but cool, I wore a turtleneck to the barn this morning and didn't get any too warm! There are so many things to do and now I"m feeling the fair crunch. I was good until I began thinking about the projects that still aren't done. I really wanted to get them done before now, but I'm not that organized yet. I heard on Randy Carlson talk about doing one thing each day that is intentional. And if you continue to do that one thing soon it will be a habit and then you do another thing that's intentional. Pretty soon you're living an intentional life and that's the goal. So my intentional thing is to do things NOW, not later. I'm trying, but obviously it didn't work with the 4-H projects. Last night Luke's football team beat Pittsford , 40-22 or something like that. It was a great game....for us. Luke had two touchdowns, two interceptions and ran for a 2 point conversion. He had...

More of the Rummage Sale! Stuff, stuff and more stuff. The men's section. And here is the women's section.

It was a beautiful day for a rummage sale and that's where I went yesterday! Held on the campus of Hillsdale College, beside the football stadium, people flocked to the sale. Earlybirds got their goods and were leaving as I was coming. I arrived at about 9:15 or so....this guy was on his way out already! This is the entrance, young and old alike love the rummage sale. And this was just the beginning

It's a beautiful morning here on the Knolltop. A cool 55 degrees while milking this morning and cause for a sweatshirt the whole time. Yesterday was a big day for me, my first time on jury duty. Since I just got done writing about it on Dairy Agenda Today , I won't put it here, you can go there and read it. Honestly, I'm in a hurry(what's new?) because the Hillsdale College Rummage Sale is today and I've got 19 minutes to get cleaned up and get there if I want to be there when the doors open! I'm taking my camera...ohhhhh this is going to be so fun!

Good Monday Morning from a beautiful sunny Knolltop! We are having great weather and I love it! I'm late for the barn, I should be in there bedding the cows, Bobby is on his second trip for feed and I should be half way done with my job now. OH my how does time get away from me!!!!! Gotta go!
