Farmers in the making...

I've always been a farm girl, having grown up on a farm, but rarely drove a tractor unless my dad let me drive while I was with him. Now, I can officially say I'm a "farm girl" - I've been helping in the field during the day until I need to pick the girls up from school and it's actually been quite fun! I am driving the tractor hauling the grain cart to catch on the go and then dump it into the semi to haul to town. I was probably more nervous dumping it in to the semi than anything. I've done pretty well though and think I'll probably be able to keep my job!!! The funniest though is Kale - he's always been OBSESSED with anything tractor so he's in absolute heaven and asks every morning when we will be heading out to the field. Getting him to go to school on Monday and Tuesday morning was a challenge but we got it done! I picked him up from preschool on Monday and he turned to his teachers and said "see ya later, I gotta go combine" as if it was literally HIS job!!! Like I said in the title, we're farmers in the making...
