corn.

Last week, Corey and Lawson went back to the farm to help pick corn. 
It was a cloudy, rainy evening...



It rained on them off and on...

But they did get to see this... 


I wasn't sure what Lawson was doing in this picture... what he was holding... 

It almost looks like a big knife... but surely not... 

Um... yeah. That's a really big knife. That my 5 year old is holding. 

That my 5 year old is swinging around wildly. And apparently having a lot of fun doing it. 

Probably a good thing mommy wasn't along on this trip... it might not have been near as much fun.  :) 

Corey got it all washed, cut off the cob and put in the freezer. Perfect for summer suppers!

Silly Daddy- these moments aren't supposed to be caught on camera for Mom to see!

Just looking at the title of this post made me think of three things.
1. I'm glad Amy didn't have a picture of the kind of diaper we saw last week.
2. Eating corn on the cob is really hard for Gracie right now (front tooth missing)
3. Now I'm hungry for corn on the cob- I hope it's still at a cheap summer price!

A big old corn knife. I used to ride on the back of my Dad's motorcycle out into the field with him all the while sitting on the corn knife to keep it on the motorcycle so he would have it to use in the field. Of course no helmet either....hmmmmmmmmmmm, not sure I would let me kids do the same. :) All your farm pictures make me a little homesick.
