Harvest is here!

We all really enjoyed farming with daddy this year! Or at least pretending to farm :)
They started in the field on September 30, 2011 and had gorgeous weather the entire time! Some days it was a little windy but the temps were between 70-80 degrees the entire time!
They pulled out of their last field on Monday, October 10, 2011. 11 days and they had all their crop out, wagons, tractor and combine washed and everything put back away!
Daddy took Ashtyn on Sunday and let her ride in the tractor for just about 5 hours! She also got to go with him to the elevator and help haul loads and unhook the wagon (thats her favorite). She even took a nap on the way to town daddy said!
Brayden also got some alone time with daddy, he rode for just about 3 hours on Tuesday! WOAH! Mommy got a lot of cleaning and organizing done at home!
The kids even got to ride with Grandpa for a little bit in the combine a couple times!
And Matt took Peyton for his first tractor ride, we got to ride with while they were un-loading on the go :)
If we weren't riding in the tractor mommy brought everyone out on the 4-wheeler a few times to watch the excitment. 
ANd of course... mommy didn't forget the camera!
