Apple Trees

This past weekend we made some small improvements to the farm - that we might get to enjoy in the next 2-5 years.  Yes, apple trees take that long before they are mature to pick from.

We planted 3 down by our lagoon - which will hopefully be somewhere in our backyard eventually if we ever build a house.  They are dwarf apple trees so they will be a decent size for the kids to pick apples, and for the deer to get to them as well as I was reminded by Tim.

Tim likes any excuse to drive the tractor and of course we needed  the bucket there.

And with the tractor comes my turn to drive it with my girls.  Emma got her first tractor ride Sunday night and enjoyed it quite a bit.  Having all 3 of them up in there with me brought a lot of memories back of me and my brothers in there with my grandpa.  Megan is all ready to "drive", she can tell you all about the turtle/rabbit gear.

Not sure what they like better - the tractor rides or the 4-wheeler.  They might be country girls just yet...

So that has been our major progress out on the farm.  I have a project going on in the garage and making my "mud room".  There was some assembling done yesterday as well so I need to work on that when there is time as well.  That requires moving things in the garage and Tim will not be happy if I do that without his blessing as that is "his room".
More to come...
