The Farm




Most of our free time in the summer is spent here....the Godfrey garden and farm. Growing up, my family always had a garden until the time my brother and I started playing sports and there just wasn't enough time to garden. But, there isn't anything quite like home grown vegetables. So, working in our garden brings back many of my cherished childhood memories. Plus, Jamie and I get to spend alot of time together working in it and it's so great to enjoy and share the fruits of our labor. This year, we are growing lots of different vegetables: green beans, peppers, cucumbers, squash, corn, tomatoes, onions, and the list goes on....We are even growing pumpkins, which was actually an accident, but they are doing great. We aren't sure what we are going to do with all the pumpkins just yet, but it's neat just the same.

I thought I'd also post a picture of the most recent calves. These two little guys were late comers. When the first one arrived, we named him pea-dab because he was so small. Then, a few days later, another arrived. Since we can hardley tell them apart, we named this one pea-dob. They are so cute...and it's adorable to watch them frolick around in the field.

The Godfrey farm is a beautiful place. I'm blessed to be able to enjoy it.
