Harvest time

  Hello Everyone!!
  Its harvest time here on the farm again!  Jaylon has been busy, working from sun up until after dark driving grain buggy, semi, or baling the corn fodder.

                         This is the new 2014 John Deere tractor that they got

                 Me and Kyle got to ride with Jaylon while he was driving the new tractor yesterday :)

                                                     Kyle was happy to see his daddy :)

                                                Jaylon has also been baling the corn fodder

           Jaylon's little chevy truck has got a lot of power haha, It had to pull the bean head for the combine

                                                           

        The beans that Jaylon harvested the other week were piled into this shed until they're ready to bag them

                         Jaylon climbed up on top of one of the grain bins and got some cool pictures!

Little Kyle is growing up so fast, already almost 5 months old!!

 Beautiful AZ sunset :)

Combining Pinto Beans

 Hello Everyone!!

 We grow white corn on all the fields on the farm except for two fields that we grow pinto beans in.  Its nice because I can have as many 50 pd bags of pinto beans as I want :) It takes a longggg time to go through one bag though haha.
 The Pinto beans are ready to be harvested, so today Jaylon got to combine the first field of beans.  Me and Kyle decided to go ride with him for awhile.  Kyle loved riding in the combine :)

Its all glass behind the seats in the combine so you can see the pinto beans filling up in the combine.

sorry about the reflection, but you can see that its getting packed full of beans

:)

Unloading the beans into the semi

A Scenic Drive

Hello Everyone!!

    I have about an hour drive to town for grocerys and shopping.  Its a long drive but the road is so scenic it helps the time to go by fast.  On my way home from town the other day I took a few pictures of the beautiful scenery along the road....

       The one road goes through range land so sometimes there is cows meandering down the side of the road.  You have to stop and honk your horn and wait for them to cross, sometimes it takes awhile haha

                         
                                                       Drove past the High Lonesome ranch

                                                                      And the Flying K Ranch

Driving down into our valley....Pictures just can't capture how pretty it is...

  ---------------------------------

Before we left on vacation Jaylon and his brothers Justin and Joshua went trail riding on their dirt bikes up in the Mountians

                       

                                              Jaylon got some beautiful pictures of the mountians

 ---------------------------------------------

Thank the Lord we've gotten alot of rain this moonson season. The dirt roads turn into rivers when it pours the rain because the grounds so dry the water just runs along the top

             
                   We got three inches of rain the other day from a hurricane that came from the coast of Mexico.  Jaylon took these pictures of the "used to be dry creek bed" over on the main farm after the hurricane went through

         -----------------------------------------------

Little Kyle is growing up so fast!!  He's going to be 4 monthes old in a week!  He's rolling over all the time, jabbering, smiling, playing with his toys, and Jaylon got him to laugh for the first time the other day :) He also has starting eating mashed banana, and he loves it haha

             

                      (sorry if a few of these pictures are kinda blurry, they were taken with my phone)

Playing with his toys

                      A few sundays ago we went out to eat after church with some friends and Kyle got to hang out with another baby :)
