Sweet Pea Festival Success

This summer brought another exciting moment to celebrate! Joyce and I teamed up to enter Bozeman’s Sweet Pea Festival Poster Contest—and we won first place! Taking a break from the garlic fields to attend the festival, we had the honor of signing posters and sharing our joy with the community. It was a vibrant celebration of creativity, family, and the beauty of Montana summers.

Rowan and Seneca

Rowan and Seneca, two peas in a pod, are the epitome of childhood wonder and industriousness. At just five years young, these identical twins are already seasoned helpers, lending a hand in the garlic fields with a vigor that belies their age. After a day of hard work, they are rewarded with a well-deserved ice cream treat, their tiny hands sticky and faces streaked with dirt. At day's end, as they soak away the grime in the bath, the once clear water transforms into a muddy, golden hue, a testament to their playful adventures. To witness such pure joy and innocence is a gift, and I am filled with an immense sense of pride for these two remarkable boys.
