Big Green Tractor

On the farm, tractors are a necessary part of life.  They allow us to efficiently complete tasks such as plowing the garden, planting seed for hay, mowing, raking, baling hay, and feeding hay out to the cows.  The tractors are also very useful at other times, like when you are cleaning up leftover construction waste that needs to be dumped in a far-away, eroding creek-bed. 

We start 'em young.

"Ok, Dad, just hand me the keys.  I got this."

5 of the 6 of us that rode through the pasture to dump the rock & gravel.....

notice the vacant "jump seat" next to Ezra, reserved for yours truly and the handsome little guy in green.

Haven't you heard the saying, "The family that farms together, stays together".....or something like that.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving Week!!  We are looking forward to a wonderful, large family get together, with many whom we haven't seen in over 4 years (that was two babies ago!).
