I had a wonderful time last week with my grandson Joseph. Julie came down to get her horse to take back with them and since Joseph had fall break he got to stay down here with us. Tommy and I both had a lot of fun being with him. Tommy was working on a field that he is breaking up and resowing and Joseph spent a lot of time either watching or riding in the tractor with Paw Paw. It was still rough at first so he and I just watched. Then when it was a little smoother he got to ride in the tractor. He dearly loves tractors and has been that way ever since he was big enough to be put on one. He also loves playing toy tractors and spent a lot of his time inside doing that. I even managed to saddle up our horse, Jack and let J ride some. We don't have a real pony(not yet anyway). I'm working on that. We worked on a loading chute while he was here, and he called it his "boat". He has an endless imagination and fascinates me with some of the things he comes up with.
He wasn't able to ride on this tractor
Watching Paw Paw
Shyann never got too far away from J
Riding in one of his favorite tractors
Helping us move ewes and lambs
Helping pull up turnips
Using his wheelbarrow to haul the turnips
But he wouldn't eat any for supper :)
This is a cake I made for J
He did eat some of it
He wanted it to be a birthday cake so I put some candles on it
Joseph really likes to gather eggs

J loves cats
There were a lot more pics I could have put on here, but time has caught up with me. Thanks, Julie, for sharing Joseph with us. I have so many more memories to add to my memory bank and they will be treasured.
