Harvest at the Vander Vorsts

This afternoon the combiners pulled in.

Daniel(9months) decided that he wanted to get in on it as well. He loves riding on the 4-wheeler and being with the "big" boys.

We trust everyone is having a good summer. We hope to get back to blogging soon.

Pictures of Spring at the Vander Vorsts

We have been enjoying the nice spring weather and the baby animals that come with it. It is fun to see the "first" signs of spring.

This week we had an unexpected baby show up. We all think she is pretty cute and are trying to come up with a name for her.


Daniel was in awe of the whatever his older siblings were doing.



We have 11 bottle calves (so far) and even Amos and Micah help to feed them. The hardest part about feeding the calves is keeping track of who is fed and who isn't. We seem to have gotten a system down now.

Joe inqubated 40 eggs and last week 34 of them hatched. It was very interesting watching them come out of their shells. Joe will be getting 25 more chicks next week.

Katrina is the primary caretaker of the kittens. She has each of them named and plays with them almost every day.
Amos and Micah really enoyed being able to get quite a few tractor rides when the men came to plant.

Daniel was having a Ruff Day. The outfit that he's wearing is size 6-12 months and he is only 2 1/2 months. He is a very chubby baby.

We got 8-10 inches of snow Saturday night.


WWe girls baking. We have been making cookies and selling them in town.

Dad and the boys eating breakfast at 5:30 a.m. before they left Monday morning. They went to Texas to look at vans.

Our view of the Wolf mountains.

We have been doing "fun stuff" while Dad and the boys are gone. Making cards, reading, playing games and spoiling Daniel.
