Future Farmers

Harvest time....This is my favorite time of year. The weather is cooling, trees are turning, fields are ready for harvest, tractors are out, animals are running everywhere....so much fun! Since harvest season started a few weeks ago tractors, combines, wagons, and semi's are everywhere and my kids LOVE IT! They love scouring the fields for any kind of (farm) equipment. We knew papaw Doug was going to be in the combine tonight so he asked us to come over and ride. The kids (and by kids I am including Josh) were so excited, they could hardly wait. Seriously, I think they were more excited than Christmas morning, it was very cute. We pulled up and they just starred at the tractor and combine. I think it was hard for them to understand they are really this big. The combine has a jump seat (basically a passenger seat) and Josh was able to ride with the older two. The ride had a little fun for everyone...the kids saw two baby deer and Josh was very much intrigued with the on board computer:-) Needless to say they would be back out riding now if I didn't have to drag them home for showers before church tomorrow. Thanks papaw Doug, we will be back to ride some more!



They could not wait to climb up.

Look how big that tire is
