Memories...

Combining the corn!

Katherine loved "shucking" the corn

We had a fun day today!  It was cooler here and actually felt like fall in Tennessee.  The day started with Luke's flag football game.  He does really good in practice but when it comes to the games we're not sure what happens. He gets so excited, he doesn't really seem to know what is going on.  Jon and Kristen came to watch the game and then we went to Cracker Barrel for brunch.  We wanted Jon and Jim to have the opportunity to see Kitty's house before we really got deep into the demolition.  Jon and Paul had fun reliving old memories.  Kristen helped me make some design decisions which was fun!  There was some work to be done at Bill's as well.  By the time that was all done and we were back to the house it was late afternoon.

The big machines had been combining the corn most of the afternoon, but the kids got a real treat when they came right up by our driveway.  That was up close and personal!  They were so excited to pick up the leftover corn.  Katherine loved popping all the kernels off.  They made maracas out of empty water bottles they filled with corn.  We did a little work late today, but weren't really in the mood to get to involved in something.  We will be back tomorrow...
