Memorial Day

Farming has been very interesting this year. First of all, most of the hay fields around here had weevil in them, including us, and so we had to have our fields treated to kill the little critters. Because of this problem, Kent had a few weeks with not much to do. So on Memorial Day we were invited to go see Mike and Kelly for the day and have a picnic. On the way we picked up Tyler, Kati, and Quincy and took them with us. Quincy was pretty excited to go with Grandma and Grandpa! We got to see the progress Kelly and Mike had made on their house, and even help them pull weeds and trim plants and trees in their backyard. Personally, I would have liked to stay and help them get more work done in their yard, but that will be a good project for them to do together!!
While at Wal-Mart getting food for our picnic, Kelly and Quincy decided to take a ride on the Merry-Go-Round. Don't know who had more fun, Kelly or Quincy.
We decided to go to Shoshone Falls for our picnic. The weather was great, hardly any wind, and it was pretty warm. We had a good time looking at the falls, eating, and playing frisbee. There was a little stream of water that ran through the creek that we were wading in. Well, almost everyone waded in it, except for Quincy who did not want to get his feet wet. We had a fun day and we were sure Quincy was tired and worn out. But oh no, he talked all the way home to Boise! It was so cute.
