Day at the Farm

Oh the adventures we find ourselves on! On Tuesday we went up to Waterloo, IA to visit our favorite Uncle Josh (Kayden's Godfather) at his family's farm. Josh is back helping out for a couple of weeks so we thought that we would crash the party and go up and distract him from his work for a while. We had a blast and I say WE because we thought the kids would have fun but I think that Chris and I had just as much fun as they did! We learned all about growing soy beans and corn and got to check out the HUGE equipment that they use on the farm. We visited the cows which Josh's Uncle Ben was so gracious as to call in for us. It was awesome, he just started calling, "Hey Cows," and wouldn't you know it, those cows came in to visit! And you know what? Cows are loud!! I don't think I have ever been that close to a cow and that bull was a little scary. Carver climbed up in the soy bean bin with Uncle Josh and got to play in the soy beans. We even put him to work bailing hay. Oh, and Chris's favorite part, we got to ride Josh's dad's 4 wheeler around which was sooo much fun! Chris is convinced he should have one now. I can just see him riding his 4 wheeler up and down the block along side the kids in their power wheels jeep. By the time we headed out of town the kids were stinky and tuckered out, just the way they should be after a day on the farm. Wednesday morning Carver's first words out of his mouth were, "Let's go back to the farm today!" Thanks for an awesome day at the farm Uncle Josh!!
