Beautiful October Weekend!!

Yeager Farm's fall scarecrow!! He welcomes you from the driveway-while he moons you!!

The fish we caught Saturday-minus the 2 Jeff cleaned before he realized we hadn't taken any pictures yet!

It has just been the MOST beautiful weekend!! We went to the beach on Friday evening and spent the evening around a fire with Anne and Duane. Saturday morning was quite cool-but we went fishing anyway. Jeff caught a nice speckled trout-the one I caught was only 13 1/2 inches-so back in he went. Later in the afternoon, we went down to the end of our road and Jeff caught a nice red and then we started catching bull croakers-I have never seen croakers this big!! They were SO much fun to catch! We came on back home this morning-got home about 10:00am.

When we got home, Jeff went to work on the scarecrow. After that was finished, he decided to mow a little, then royally broke the brush hog. Someone had put a chain on it and it slipped into a hole on the deck and twisted the yoke until the u-joint broke. Don't know what that's gonna cost us!

I'm making a pot of homemade chili for supper-no Wolf brand here(Jeff can't stand the stuff!) We might even start a fire in the heater for the first time tonight! We are so glad that the cool temps are finally here!!

Tractor!!!

Jeff & Jordan spreading the last of the dirt at the beach on Saturday afternoon.

All 5 of the grandkids-they aren't proud of the new toy-are they? Mady is the only one who hasn't "driven" it yet. We have come up with a WHOLE list of chores for the new tractor to do-boy is it gonna be busy for awhile!

Well-we finally bit the bullet and bought a new tractor! We got a Montana with a front-end loader and a brush hog. We took it down to the beach on Saturday afternoon and got the last pile of dirt spread and the grass planted. It's looking better down there. We had to come back home early- Jeff's mom had a slight heart attack and was in the hospital. Thank God-she's OK!!! She has to follow up with her Doc this week.

The garden is looking better. We have a few tomatoes blooming and the cukes and squash are really growing! Jeff's nephew, Jason, brought us 11 baby chicks Saturday morning. His wife, Leigh Ann is a teacher and the class had hatched them out as a class project and I got to keep the babies! Hopefully the coons won't be able to get these! I've put them in a different cage this time!! Have a great week!
