What did you do today?

[Taffy]

It was a gorgeous sunny day yesterday. Yesterday I loaded up the 3 wethers in the trailer, drove to the field with the low hanging scrub elm and finished the tree trimming job I didn't get finished the other day. Then the boys and I went to one of our new parcels of land and I drove tractor while my husband worked the chain and we pulled old cedar fence posts out of a row of tall weeds along the alfalfa field edge before he burned the row of weeds. The boys did not like me being up on the tractor instead of on the ground with them. When I got down my husband and I were standing around talking and all of a sudden Banjo jumped into the tractor bucket. After a few minutes of exploring and admiring the view from up there he started looking around like "uh-oh, how do I get down from here!" Then he decided to go higher! Of course Bourbon was cheering him on! He eventually got back into the bucket and hopped down. Later in the afternoon I added the 2 girls to the mix and hauled all of them to a field my husband and youngest son baled and stacked. We hiked along the edge of the field with frequent stops to browse while the guys worked. When they were done we all went home. It was a good day.

King of the bucket!
