Harvest Time is Here!

The days grow shorter. The air grows cooler. Something special is in the air! The farmers have begun to reaps what they have sown. It is time for hooded sweatshirts and warm jeans. The leaves of the trees begin to change. Something special is n the air! the night grows cooler. The daylight grows shorter. The children are yet again in school. Their laughter fills the air. The smells of Fall begin to fill the air: the smell of a fresh wood fire, fresh apple cider, fresh baked pies, and fresh baked bread. Harvest time is here. ~ An excerpt from Chad Koke's Harvest Time is Here poem!

The old Waynesville Elevator
 I can not believe that Harvest time is here. This is my favorite time of year. School is back in session, leaves are falling, cool air with windows open, and my favorite hoodies and football games. Chad is back into school and I can not believe that this time next year we should be off on our own. I am so excited for a new adventure. Chad is loving everything about this new semester. He takes 2 classes or 3 classes a day and they are stuff they love. Challenging, but he loves it! I have started back at the grain elevator, yes a true sign that Harvest is here. It has been crazy but I love it. So balancing there, the Y, school, housework, and spending time with Chad has been a challenge, but it is only for a season. I love being out at the Elevator it is like home. I grew up at a grain elevator when my mom worked at one when I was little. I remember being there everyday after school and weekends watching cartoons. I helped test,  sign my initials on tickets, and  most importantly press the horn. Now I work at a grain elevator with my mom and it brings back all types of memories.


Chad and I will hopefully be visiting the church he will hopefully being interning at. We will be scoping out the area etc... be praying that everything works out and the right doors will be open. 
We will fill you in on the details as they come in. Also we have our vacation booked. We could not take one this summer, so we are leaving during Christmas. We are so excited 6 days and we are staying at a fantastic place!!!
Well as this week is winding down we will relaxing. Chad and I both have to work over the weekend but we always keep Sunday's together. Until next week ................
