59th British National Ploughing Championships

On Saturday October 10th Brad and I went to the Ploughing (plowing) National Championships. I know some of you are thinking...what the??? But it was really fun and we got to see some neat stuff. We watched horses pull ploughs through the fields and we also saw them use old steam engines to plough. It was all very different but very neat to see and be a part of. While we were there we made a new friend who invited us to his farm for a visit. He is about 80 and has been farming for all his life. For those of you that know us don't worry we asked him about 100 questions so we know quite a bit about the history of farming with a steam engine. It began in about 1860 and continued through WWII. They use 2 steam engines with a pully system pulling a plough from one steam engine to another. The steam engines were just a demonstration, no judging. The horses on the other hand were pulling ploughs and were being judged. They were being judged on a lot of different things but the main ones being how straight the lines were and how well "turned" the soil was. The horses were so beautiful and it was incredible to watch. Don't worry we also had drinks and bought souvenirs. Brad got a fleece that has the "Society of Ploughmen" logo and then he had it embroidered with "GET PLOUGHED". The Brits did not get our humor but we thought it was funny. Cheers!

Christie's visit Sept 18 - Sept 23

Christie came to visit and we had an AWESOME time! It's always so nice to share our life here. We went into Cambridge on Saturday to see some sights, have a pint and eat some pub food. Saturday night we had a party so Christie could meet all of our friends and to celebrate Krisa's 28th Birthday. Sunday we took Christie to Ely to see where we used to live and to take Maloaee to the river to swim. It was a great time and we were sad to see her go!

Trip to Germany

Krisa went to Germany for work, Sure Start Training. It was outside of Frankfurt Germany in an industrial park. There was no sight seeing involved. The hotel room was very nice! Here are some pictures of the people she met, the room she stayed in and the food she ate, oh and a picture of what was across the street. Honestly that was all there was to take pictures of.
