Happy Birthday, Tommy

Today is my husband's birthday. We have spent many birthdays together during our 41+ years of marriage. He had a fun time spending the day in the hay field. I guess he planned it that way since he cut the hay so it would bale today. The weather certainly didn't cooperate, though. It was mostly overcast with the sun only making appearances every now and then. We got more done than I expected to. It even spit a little rain on us at times. That has been the case so many times this year in the hay fields. I square baled some and Tommy did the round baling. We didn't get through, so if it doesn't rain tonight or tomorrow, we will finish.


This is the tractor with the hay cutter. Our grandson, Joseph calls this "his tractor"

Happy Birthday to my husband and best friend!!!
