Picking Corn

The church has a farm about 30 minutes from our house. Every year in August the sweet corn is ready to pick and anyone from the church can go pick as much as they want. So we decided to try it out this year. Every year that the corn is ready to be picked we have not been around to go pick it. So we decided to try it out this year. The boys had a blast helping Dad get the corn. Brandon would pick the corn and hand it to the boys to take and put in a pile somewhere. Ethan and Wyatt had a blast running back through the corn to grab some more corn and then running it back out. haha They worked together so they didn't get lost and they did a good job. I had Emmett in the backpack so I couldn't do much but watch them and help shuck the corn when we were done picking what we wanted. Emmett kept wanting to grab the corn and then when he saw a cat that was hanging out around us he just wanted to see the cat. He thought the cat was so funny especially when it meowed. 


What handsome boys!! I love Wyatt's goofing smile he is making. haha It almost like he is in pain! haha 
















The corn ended up being kind of old so it was not the best corn. I ended up cutting it all up and making it into freezer corn. So hopefully it will last yummy as freezer corn. Not sure that it was worth all the effort when we can get yummy corn for pretty cheap at the store and it is not as old. However, it was the experience of taking the boys to pick corn and they had fun with it.
