Summer's in full swing on The Never Done Farm! Photo heavy

 This picture was taken in mid July, of course everything is much taller and producing well.

 Mike's shop is coming along, slow but sure and some of our pretty flowers at the end of our driveway.
 Better picture of the shop, we have the two walk through doors and rest of the windows and hope to have it all closed in before winter.
 Front of house, to the left of this picture is Mike's shop. If you click the photo you can see the chicken tractor in the sideyard that houses a chciken hen and her two turkey poults, that's right the turkey hens laid eggs but refused to set so a broody hen sat on 4 eggs and three hatch, only two lived!
 More of the garden and our new raised bed system, which we love!
 more garden stuff
 Cortney bought a pool and the grandkids and her were the first to enjoy it. It took two days to fill and then get chemicals all in balance. Sure will be nice this week we're supossed to be into the high 90'sF and 100F all week!
 Grandson, enjoying the pool, even if it was still a bit chilly*wink*
 Granddaughter is also a littel fish, like big brother, although she was in and out because she was cold.
My little helper, making Cortney's B-day Cake first part of July.

So much happening, working to get garden stuff canned and preserved, keeping the garden watered is a full time job, plus getting firewood ready for winter and general chores. We're milking two goats and making cheese three times a week now, plus yogurt, and icecream! :o) Hope your summer is as full and exciting as ours and that you feel blessed everyday! We miss being on here more but life changes and we feel our family is where we need to be right now. So please check back from time to time and we'll keep up with you as much as we can too *wink*

Oh ...you have been busy bees!
That's what it takes to get things done though :)

It will be nice to have the shop, and nice to have to pool to cool off in.

Enjoy your evening.

Smiles :)

I love the garden! And the shop is looking great. Mike must be so excited. Your little helper is adorable and how beautiful your farm is.

So neat to see families still working together to make beautiful memories and take care of each other.

Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you. :)

Oh, how I love your flowers (my favs are the sunflowers and coneflowers.

What a lovely home! I dream of having my own greenhouse one day. Actually read an article in a special edition of Mother earth news on mini greenshouses... One of these days!

Blessings, Mel
