Tomorrow is show day for the boys at the N.C. State Fair! The pigs have been weighed and washed and are now settled in for the night. Mom is on nurse duty, giving Papa treatments, so won't be able to come to the show. That means Dad is on both trailer backing duty and all other parental duties. Me, I'm enjoying seeing friends, taking pictures of Dad taking pictures, and wrangling pigs. Wish the boys luck as they show Ace and Rojo. Say a prayer for Momma. She hasn't missed a State Fair show in a decade and a half, and leaving her in the driveway wasn't anyone's idea of fun. #ncstatefair #nothingcouldbefiner #showpigs #pigshow #stockshow #stockshowkids

To those who don't get a day off... To the ones who work in acres not hours... To those that, without them, we'd be hungry, naked, and sober... To those who know the meaning of loss more keenly than others... To those who know the joys of growth and birth... To those who make up the 2%... To the farmers... Happy National Farmer's Day! Thank you for all you do. 🐷🐮🐥🐑🐐🌱🌾🍎🚜 Over the years, I have had the privilege to visit many a farm and capture those farmers with photos and words. At every single farm, I saw dedication and pure passion for what they do. To the farmers and folks who are involved in agriculture who have welcomed me onto their farm--thank you. Thank you for trusting me with your stories. I am forever grateful that I was able to grow up on a farm myself. Although, smaller in size, a farm is still a farm. So, here's to a day of celebrating farmers, farm families, and the farm life. #nationalfarmersday #farmer #livestock #agriculture #farm #farmher

G was today’s year old when he realized he had bottom lashes. This morning he made this realization and wanted to know if I had them too. Why, yes, I do. I’ve applied mascara to them for years. I have the silliest of gooses for a husband and I love him dearly for it ❤️

It’s National Apple Month and with the cooler weather, I’m trying to incorporate apples in all my dishes. Tonight is turkey, Brie and apple paninis. This weekend we are making apple stuffed pork and apple dessert! Did you know there are 7,500 apple producers in the US who grow more than 200 varieties of apples? Instead of wine tasting, maybe we should have apple tastings. I definitely haven’t tried even a portion of the available varieties. #apples #nationalapplemonth #apple #applepicking #anappleaday #usapple #agriculture #food
