Last weekend I was able to head out to my parents farm to help my mom dig up potatoes. After a morning of digging the plan was then to drive on the combine. God, however had different plans for us.
I did get to help with potatoes. And well, lets just say mom's garden produces!!! Potatoes everywhere. The one mom is holding in the picture is an example of how big some of them were. We also found some shaped like a teddy bear and a duck. It was a great morning working with mom. We dug one plant and it filled half a 5 gallon pail. Every three plants we had a full pail and where hauling them down to the cold room.
That afternoon I planned on sitting on the combine with mom while we worked on canola. However, after a quick lunch and a even quicker nap the rain started to come down. Instead, mom and dad got a little bit more of some much needed rest. We ended up then going up north to put some cows in that had gotten out. And then from there we ended up heading to town to have supper. Then mom and dad came to my house and helped me with a bit of a 'to do list'.
Thanks you mom and dad for a great Saturday! I treasure you guys!!!
