Harvest 2014

We started the harvest year with the purchase of a dump trailer. This little trailer made our lives so much easier getting crops out of the field. Below are some pictures of our harvest.

I came to pick up Todd from cleaning the combine. He had a lot of help from our pack mule friends.

Carving Pumpkins

We had a great time carving pumpkins with our nephews and Tara this year. This was Levi 's first year to carve a pumpkin. He was not impressed at first, but later dug into the fun. We collected all the seeds and roasted them. They were delicious!

        Our pumpkins only lasted 4 days in the hot sun, so these happy campers enjoyed them!
