A day on the farm

A few weeks ago we went to Marty's farm.  He was combining soy beans and let us ride with him.  The kids also climbed up and checked out his truck. 

Marty, his son, Devon and Marty's brother, Buford farm 3200 acres.

McKenzie riding with Marty in the combine.  McKenzie got out and admitted that she talked Marty's ear off.  When I asked her what all they talked about she said, "lots of things".

Carter found the air horn in the semi.

After making a few trips up and down the field, Marty would pull up next to the semi and unload the beans so they could take them to the elevator. 

I loved hanging out with the boys (Carter and Henry) and getting to talk to Devon, Dad and Shelly while waiting for our turn to ride.

Shelly and Henry taking a turn.  Shelly got in and told Marty to tell her everything he knew about farming.  Ha.  I know Marty was as entertained by our company as we were with the experience.

That night there was a beautiful sunset. 

Marty is very much an international man.  He says, "If it ain't red, leave it in the shed". Ha!
