Farm Living

June 30, 2008
Austin had a BIG time with Granddaddy on the farm!
The boys were thrilled to ride a little piece in Granddaddy's big 2-ton truck.
Granddaddy showed the boys the farming equipment. They got to climb up on the huge John Deere tractor,
ride on Granddaddy's "new" bulldozer (this really thrilled Austin- he is at the age where he is SO excited everytime he sees a bulldozer or other construction vehicle.),

ride the tractor lawn mower (funny as it seems, I think this was one of the biggest thrills for Austin & Luke. They got to steer it around Great Grandmother's yard),
climb & play in the back of the pickup truck,
ride in the huge combine,
and help Granddaddy feed the cows!
Farm chores were never so fun!!!
