One of the main reasons we had to cut our trip to New York short, was because of the harvest, which we are so grateful for.
Thank you, Lord, for your many blessings.
Bountiful Harvest = Lots of Work
Work.....
and Sweat, and sweat, and sweat. Yep, you guessed it, HOT!
Another bucket full and 5000 to go, whew. (Anybody have a drink they wanta donate?)

Momma cleaning out the yellows.
Truck is full and time to deliver.
but it's sure not as cozy as doing it the old fashioned way,
with good conversation to go along with it.

Okay, I'm tired of waiting for lunch. 
Our first pickins of okra in this garden.
We sure look forward to the storms.

Beautiful harvest! God has blessed. That is horrible about the fingernail :( Whose was it? It makes me cringe just thinking about it.
God bless!

What a fantistic crop! The comment "bountiful harvest = hard work" is so true. I think the planting and tending is sometimes easier than the harvesting and preserving! But, it looks like y'all had lots of helping hands (some with missing fingernails) to get the job done!
Very impressive!
Love,
Katie
PEAS!!! And I thought we had beans.:) Today is so swelteringly humid and sticky... were you praying for ours?? :) Hope Christi's fingers heals.:( Ouch! Still miss ya'll.
