Gardening and Picking Strawberries

This week has been wonderful! Brian has the week off since he was in Africa for the past 10 days. We have pretty much just been enjoying farm life:) Today we started working on our first garden! its been something brian has been so excited about doing....me on the other hand..i see it as alot of work! but slowly im getting more and more excited about it! So brody of course was right in the middle of everything "helping". THere is hardly ever time brian is on the tractor that brody isnt sitting on his lap. i think that kid would ride on the tractor all day if we let him!



We also went and picked strawberries today! We picked...Brody ate! He thought he was in heaven i think! There was no stopping him! i would have to hold onto his hands to keep him from picking them and putting them straight in his mouth! i tried pick them and then let him put them in the bucket...but the strawberries always ended up in his mouth! he was a Red Mess by the end of it:) He had So much fun thought! he calls all fruit "popples"..i have no clue why (thats how he started saying pineapple and now thats what all fruit is) anyways....all he said the whole time we were there is "Popples! MMmmm! " "Popples! Mmmmm! he even sat on one and i took a cute picture of his cute little rear end with strawberry smushed all over it:)
