God Protects and Halloween

God Protects

On Monday, I was helping do things in Grandpa's field.  It was an interesting.  I love it helping, being out in nature.  In the tractor I saw a deer, and a bunny rabbit. I was listening to music, seeing nature, and loving every minute of it....UNTIL.......I started noticing that I was missing some corn stalks when I was mowing. I just thought maybe I was too far over. Over more thought, I realized that the deck was too big to have missed that, so something must have broken.  I started calling Grandpa to see if he wanted me to go up to the house to get it fixed or if he wanted to come check it out. Of course, Grandpa was busy doing other things and was unable to hear his phone.  I started trying to look at it myself.  I started seeing smoke.  Leaving out many details, Grandma had to go get Grandpa, I called 911.  It took 20 minutes for the deputy to there, 25 minutes for Clay Township fire truck to get there (and there was only person, so they couldn't start right away). When  someone else got there, they could not figure out how to run the pump. It took like 40 minutes for Knoxville Rural to get there. Grandpa was in another tractor with a loader trying to smother/contain the fire. We also had a shovel to smother out the fire by the attached tractor in order to try to save the tractor.  The rotary mower has many damaged parts, but praise God nobody got hurt!  It was quite exciting!

Halloween

We had some friends over for the evening... 

When Noah was born, he was given this hat.  Noah enjoyed it.
