It was a great day for Beet Harvest today, there was no school so Abbie got to go "help". First, as she does every morning, yes EVERY morning, she packed her Daddy's lunch. I do not take good enought care of him, ask her. Then she proceeded to pack a goodie bag for everyone else helping in harvest too. She went and rode in the truck with Grandpa Duane for a while, all the while he was quizzing her on activities that the farmers were doing in the field, what kind of equipment and such. According to her she did fairly well. Then she rode in the tractor with her Dad for a while. She says she is riding with Jeff tomorrow, he is one of her favorite people. We are so lucky to be able to do harvest with some of our favorite people. It is not every kid in the world who can walk into a field in their back yard and see both of their grandpa's. My kids and Ron and I are so lucky to have all of our family so close. I enjoy seeing them. As you can see by the pictures Abbie does too. The picture of Abbie with her Grandpa and her Dad sure does make me realize how much they all look alike. It was a wonderful day! We went around and gathered beets in our mule and took them to the beet digger for her dad that was fun!! Yet another reason I am so glad to be able to be home!
