Farming



Parker spent the day yesterday with Grandma & Grandpa Ablott on the farm. He loves working in the shop with Grandpa, watering flowers, swimming when it is hot and sitting in the hot tub when it is not, riding on the Honda, checking the pivots, and playing with daddy's old farm toys. Yesterday the weather wasn't as nice, so Parker had to work in the office with Grandpa instead of the shop. He quickly learned how to use the adding machine and went through an entire roll of paper....

They brought him home and we all went to pick up the last load of pipe. Parker was thrilled to finally get some real "work" done because as he will tell you... "I am a farmer and I get sweaty." He also got to pee outside, which is something he thoroughly enjoys.



We checked on the pumpkins that Grandpa (& mostly Parker) have been growing in the field. He can't wait to bring the BIIIIIIIG pumpkin home and carve it.



It has been such a blessing for Parker to grow up close to all of his grandparents. He loves them all so much! (and so do we :)!)
