These pictures I am about to show feature our little farmchick and our little farmers in several different fields!
This is a picture of one of our fields of FLAX. Flax is my favorite crop because I just think that it is sooooooo beautiful. When you see a large field of flax at a distance it looks like a big blue lake!! The blue flowers are just so pretty!
Now this picture is of a CANOLA field. Aren't the yellow flowers so bright and cheerful?!!
This picture is one of our WHEAT fields. It is still green so it is not ready for harvesting. It will turn to a pretty amber color when it is ready to combine. (like amber waves of grain in America the Beautiful)
Oh and this is a picture of what kids do when their Mom is trying to snap a good picture!
Thanks for letting me take you for a stroll down our country roads....I hope you enjoyed it! I didn't get a picture of any our barley fields yet and when our sunflowers are blooming I will be sure to snap a shot! They are also very pretty and happy looking!!
Stop back soon for another yummy recipe! Oh and please do leave me a comment and let me know you stopped by--- I love making new friends!

I'm like you, I love that sea of blue. Flax certainly makes driving to work a bit more colorful. And I love the pictures with the canola. What a great idea you had to do these shots. They'd make great pictures for Christmas Cards.
ReplyDeleteLoved your pictures - even being a farmgirl myself, I had never seen a field of flax or canola - so thanks for sharing! Beautiful - and yes the children are too! Cathy

I absolutely LOVED the pictures! I also love the explanation of each one! The kids are adorable as well!
ReplyDeleteWe used to raise flax when I was a kid and remember how beautiful it was, thanks for taking me down memory lane! Nobody raises flax around here anymore. I had never seen canola either and very few people raise barley here either.
ReplyDeleteLoved your pictures, your farmland is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNow that was cool! I loved seeing the fields - I would not have know what they were so thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe fields are just beautiful up there! It reminds me of Nebraska. There's no place like home, that's for sure. :) Thank you for you sweet comments on my blog. They definitely helped cheering me up!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the award. I'm very proud and I'm going to add you to the others that awarded me also. Your blog is fantastic. This has been such a neat way to meet people and see what their lives are like.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by my blog! I love to have people 'over' for a visit! Keep coming back and I promise to do the same!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm also a country gal and we do not have flax here, so to see your wonderful fields is a real treat. Thanks for visiting me and I'm sure glad you did. I have enjoyed looking through your blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for announcing my giveaway on your blog! I just put your name in my basket 3 times! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI'm also listing you on my fav blogs...I want to visit more often...that way I'll remember!
Thanks so much! Oh, and I wrote down your taco casserole recipe...that's my kind of dish! Thanks for sharing it!
Have a wonderful week!

The crops are so beautiful. We are so lucky! Vivian is my swap partner in August!
ReplyDeleteOops forgot to tell you...I had never seen a flax or canola field either! I learned something today...thanks for that! We have beans, wheat, cotton, rice and sometimes corn planted in the fields around here. We have rice behind our house in the field right now....just lovely for mosquitoes! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the photos of your kids in the fields too!

Hello, I just found you on my friend Heidi "The Milk Mans Wife"
ReplyDeleteI am glad you explained what you are growing! I live in Arizona, Alfalfa and cotton, corn... that is what I am familar with!! Your pictures are beautiful, I will be checking back here!!
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I loved your pictures. Especially the canola--I had no idea that is what it looked like. I grew up on a ranch, and we grew alfalfa and grain. Lots of work--we also had 700 head of cattled--even more work, but I loved it. Hope you have a great day. Julie
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures!!!!
