Help in the Freezer

We can always use help:) Lovett helped me pack a few orders on Monday this week. Neither of us were prepared for the cold in our summer clothes. We keep a few spare layers in the barn for this occasion.

"It is warm enough Papa..." she told me.


Then she and my wonderful and helpful cousin Beatty taped up the boxes we needed for the orders.
