Fishin', Forts, and Flying

Every other day is "a good day to build a fort, Mom!"


We went fishing at Jerry and Janie's when the river was up--Jed was bow fishing and caught several big ones!  Jace had a hard time picking it up off the table to hold, and then of course had to help "scale" the fish before Jed cut them.


Of course, Connor didn't want to touch them or even get too close...


Jed tested out a helicopter for spraying fungicides this year...it's so awesome because it comes right to your field.  So in other words, this has been Jace's best days this summer getting to go along and watch!


We had Alexis with us one day so she got to watch too!



While we were waiting for the helicopter to come back we picked some sweet corn!




While the boys were busy with the helicopter, Connor and I picked sweet corn for freezing!


She also upgraded to Jace's bigger bike, with training wheels of course...


And put both the kids to work sorting pills for Jed and I!  They might grow up to be a pharmacist, or will be well prepared to take care of us in old age.  :) 


Almost every morning I go running while the kids are still sleeping, and often Jed leaves before I'm back.  A few times Connor has been outside, or at the top of the driveway looking for me when I got back.  THIS morning, however, I rounded the corner to come home and there she was, "checking the cows!"
