Just call me Eve

It's another beautiful morning here on the Knolltop and promises to be a great day!

The boys split their double header last night with Waldron. They did well, both of them hit well and Luke had two throw outs.

Yesterday we got another batch of prom pictures, but I won't put them up, they are basically the same as the last two days posts. What I can't figure out is this: The envelope came in the mail, it was red and you could feel it had pictures in it. I picked it out of the mail and said, "Oh! More pictures!" I handed it to Bobby and he promptly opened it and then looked at who it was addressed to. It was not addressed to us! But to JW. Bobby froze in his tracks feeling extremely guilty he immediately put them back in the envelope and put them in a safe place for JW. Of course, we didn't feel guilty enough not to look at them first, but no one else knows that!

Bobby assured me he would explain it to JW and that JW wouldn't get mad at him, knowing full well, if it had been me to open the mail, I would be in big trouble! And sure enough, Bobby explained the mistake to JW and it was all good. Until he found out I was the one to hand the mail to Bobby to open...all of a sudden it was all my fault! I have a new nick name...Eve.

WHATEVER!

Again, I ask you....I went through 45 hours of labor for this?????

After all the talk about the shoes...I wanted pictures of the shoes to see what we all thought of them. I guess we will just have to wait that one out!! :)

The shoes are kind of ugly...not worthy of any pictures...plus they are under the mountain of dirty laundry in my laundry room....!
Welcome to my world. Planting is proceeding but slow. Mom is at Borgess. Dad is stressing me out. Kids are pushing through with schooling, only 3 more weeks YEAH! Think we need a coffee moment!

Big bucks spent at Butlerview Sale

Good morning from the Knolltop . It's balmy here! When we went across the road at 4:30 this morning it was 45 out and the temp is climbing...yes it smells and feels like spring and I love it....but I know it won't last. Because no one else on the web has decided to report on it, I will give a tidbit of the Butlerview Parade of Perfection Sale that happened last weekend in Elkhorn Wisconsin. The sale averaged $19,845 on 124 lots and the sale gross was....are you ready.....sit down for this one.....$2,460,800.00! Amazing isn't it? There were buyers from 23 states and Canada and the high seller was Lot 8 at $190,000 purchased by Triple Crown Genetics, Kingsmill Farm & Gene Iager . The next highest consignment was Lot 1 at $155,000 purchased by David Ludwig of Illinois and the third highest was Lot 46 at $96,000 and Mike Garrow & Gerald Todd went home with that bargain. Apparently it was a high intensity sale with well over 800 people in attendance. I just w...
JW is at it again with marketing goodies for his Senior Trip. And this is what he left on my stove after his entrepreneurial chocolate fest! Monday he bought the molds and chocolate and made some samples to take to school. Tuesday he took his pretty packages of goodies and handed them out, took the orders and sold $96 worth of chocolates! With the pretty boxes and bags his Nana sent up from Georgia, he melted his chocolate, put them in molds, stuck them in the freezer, tapped them out of the molds and put them in some fancy boxes and bags. This morning he took a laundry basket full of bags and boxes to deliver at school. I'm amazed at how a little packaging can take ordinary chocolate...and I mean ORDINARY...we're not talking Dove or Cadbury ....ORDINARY chocolate and make it into something people will buy. Just amazing!

Table Linens

Good Morning from a cool and kind of cloudy Knolltop! Wasn't that elf thing funny? I had a friend from PA send that to me and I laughed for at least 10 minutes. Then when I collected myself, I made one with my kids and me. You can only have five elves, so I didn't stick Bobby in...I should have! What a hoot! When the kids got home they watched it and we all laughed together! Then while we were milking we were trying to do the dance moves...of course we weren't nearly as good in our barn clothes as we are in our elf outfits! I said I would share a little more of thanksgiving, so I will now. Today's topic is simple. Linen. More specifically, linen tableclothes. My mom and I love linens and she has a boatload of old linens her mom gave to her. She loves to starch and iron them and hang them up to admire. I have to admit, there is nothing better than a freshly starched tablecloth. Then it was time to set the table for Thanksgiving we practially had a tablecloth unveiling. S...
