Harvest and Exploration

Mya and I took a trip to Mimi and Papa's house to experience harvest-time. We had a such a great time playing in the leaves, riding the combine, watching the farm animals, and just exploring!


Mya and her good friend, Gracie, were watching the horses put on a show.

The horses were running all over the pasture! They would run up to us and then take off again! Very entertaining!


Mya and I were hanging out on the back stoop!




The leaves were EVERYWHERE!


Mya in front of our playhouse! This was built for my sister and me when we were little. We spent hours playing house, school, and detective agency in it! I love that our kids now love it, too!It has a swing attached to the back.

I LOVE this picture! Mya was climbing the doors to the outside entrance to the basement. She stopped for a photo-op!


Finally, we made our way to one of Papa's soybean fields. Mya was a bit grouchy and unsure of the HUGE red combine! She clung to me for dear life....but warmed up a bit to Papa after awhile. It was very challenging to get her to look at the camera. She was in awe of the combine.


The handoff. She didn't appreciate this. Ok, here we go! Mya sitting on Papa's lap. She was helping him harvest!
Can I help steer, Papa?

Mommy's turn! We were actually driving!

Mimi waited for us at the end of the field.
Bye, bye Papa. Thanks for the ride!
