Sometimes the sweetest memories show up when you least expect them! 🎃❤️
This picture from 2009 at Assiter Punkin Ranch in Floydada, Texas, popped up in my Facebook memories today, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect! They were just being interviewed on RFD-TV, and when I looked down at my phone, there was this special memory from all those years ago.
At the time, Ward and I were both attending college in Lubbock, and we were blessed to live close enough to make memories like these.
Looking back, it reminds me just how much agriculture has shaped our lives and how thankful I am for the people, friendships, and experiences it has brought along the way.
Farm life has always been so much more than just farming to us. It’s about faith, family, hard work, traditions, and the lessons learned along the way. It’s about appreciating where our food comes from, understanding the value of a hard day’s work, and never taking for granted the blessings God has given us.
One of our greatest joys is being able to share this way of life with others, especially the next generation. ❤️ We love having opportunities to teach young people about agriculture, help them experience farm life firsthand, and hopefully plant a little seed of love and appreciation for an industry that means so much to our family.
Pictures like this remind me that the memories we make and the lessons we pass down can have an impact long after the moment has passed.
We are so blessed to be part of agriculture, but even more blessed to have the opportunity to share it, teach it, and help keep the love of farm life alive for generations to come. 🌾🚜❤️
