Rocktober 2017!
October is an awesome month. It has been through out my whole life. It's the month that my loving Grandmother Lillian Adkins Funk celebrates her birthday. Last week I was also privileged to celebrate my Grandpa Chris Olsen's b-day. In a couple of days it will be my new brother's Nick Salvesen's birthday and Today is my dad's birthday. I loved growing up on the Funk Farm and miss the long days of harvest! I
 miss sitting at the kitchen table with my mom helping her make the magnetic truck numbers. I loved watching the wheat fields change from a golden yellow to brown. I miss the grade school field trips of spud gleaning. I loved driving home from a football game or church function to a gorgeous sunset along the snake river. Being a farmers daughter, I've come to understand the value hard work. Yet, I miss those John Deere tractors and sitting next to my dad in the potato truck. I am so grateful for the farm that made me the country gal I am today and the loved ones who have shaped me into the best me I could ever be.
