July Fun


Papa had wheat to be harvested which meant a combine. We just had to go visit. Jeremy had to work extra overtime for boat races anyway, so we zipped up to the farm for a short visit. 

Elizabeth wanted her picture by the tall corn. 


She climbed the whole ladder like this. Interesting. 


Throwing rocks in the pond. 


Throwing rocks in the canal. 


Waiting for the combine. 


Standing next to the wheat. 


Watching the combine approach. 


Papa Norm is not a huge wheat farmer so he hires a neighbor to come combine. 


Climbing up!


Watching the wheat get gobbled up!




At one point, the driver took the combine off GPS so Nathan could manually combine this little row. With a 30 foot header, he was sure to get that little swath in!


Nathan turning the combine around. He had to really turn that steering wheel!


Watching all the wheat pour out!


They look so small!


Other fun included playing Care Bears with Gram


Watching Pippa get her teeth brushed didn't appear to be too interesting this time. 


Having Auntie Laura paint nails is always a hit!


Showing off her pretty nails. 


Papa Norm was busy cutting hay. Elizabeth wanted to help. 


There they go!



They came back! 


A little slip and sliding.
