Planting Potatoes

Wow! What a great weekend. The weather was perfect on Saturday; perfect for planting. Honey and Monts had plans to plant their potatoes this past weekend so they asked if the boys could come help. Well, sure they could. They had a great time and it was evident that Owen loved it just as much as Cole. I love the fact that the boys get to experience these type of days with grandparents. After they were done they came home for lunch, naps and of course, some planting at our house. It was killing Dax not to have something planted so he made us a couple of raised beds in the backyard for some small vegetables and herbs. We had a great time doing them as well and look forward to seeing them grow. They are positioned right outside our kitchen window so we can look at them daily while we are eating.Borrowing Brother's tractor.

These pictures crack me up. I love the one of Monts and Owen walking...When Will gets a little older, we will have to bring him in the summertime and Dax and the boys can introduce him properly to life in Troy by busting a watermelon in the middle of a field and eating it with their fingers, just like I was introduced :)
