monday, july 5, 2010. we spent the day at grandma erm's house. denise came over and mentioned a farmer posted in the paper that he had free sweetcorn for the pickin'. so we packed up the boys and headed out with aunt denise. grandma stayed behind to make supper.
readin'.
the boys have to eat over the tile. levi's testing the limits.
eatin' peanut m&m's a g. g'ma erm's.
looking at all the family pictures.
levi belted himself in. we only had to drive about a 1/4 mile to get there.
abraham in nothing but undies. he had a pee pee accident. i didn't have an extra shirt and we put his extra shorts on when we got to the corn.
through the window you can see the sweet corn on the left and the field corn on the right. you don't want to eat field corn.
gettin' started.
papa found a big one.
an ear. you look for the tassels.
i found a ladybug for levi.
aunt denise and abraham.
my pickin's.
aunt denise said the farmer said we could shuck them on the spot and leave the debris for compost.
abe's got one for the bag.
another ear.
walking through the rows.
levi lost the first lady bug, but luckily i found one in an ear the aunt denise pulled.
aunt denise!
levi and his lady bug. he passed him off to me so he could shuck corn though.
abraham shuckin' from the wrong end:)
levi's turn.
all done.
children of the corn.
the field is only this wide.
inspecting.
we filled the brown bag about 1/2 way.
the is a crazy fungus growing on an ear. so crazy.
this little guy hitched a ride on levi's shorts, but we let him go at g'ma erm's.
