April is....GONE!!!!

I can't believe April is the same as gone already! We have been busy and I keep forgetting to put pictures up of everything we've been doing! Here are a few of the highlights!
Brody and Grandma Becki coloring Easter eggs.
Brody and his cousins, Olivia and Will Plant. The boys were not purposely dressed to match.
Chris and Brody walking to the truck. Brody was excited because they were talking about turkeys and gobbling. I think he might be a turkey hunter some day!
Brody worked to get up on the "tractor" and then got down immediately and picked up my sweatshirt that had blown to the ground. He had to get it for me before he could continue driving the "tractor." He is quite the little helper!
Walking in true "farmer style." Eyes to the ground and with a determined step.
Helping plant garden.
Farmer Brody not in a good mood first thing in the morning. I missed the shot of him with both hands in his pockets like the timeless picture of the two little boys that says "You been farming long?"
Eric's First Spring Turkey this year. He always finds a neat place to take pictures with his game.
Riding my sister's horse, Cricket, for the first time in a year. Mom has about 10 horses/mules, but due to various ailments, she is down to 2 that can be ridden, including Cricket!
Brody playing with my saddle after I was done riding.
Eric and I went mushroom hunting the other night. I was about to cross a ditch and said, "Dad and Grandpa, I'd sure like to find a nice mess of mushrooms." I crossed the ditch and took about 3 steps and then started laughing. I didn't know which way to turn to start picking! I finally got Eric to come help me pick. After about 20 minutes, we went to Grandma's and weighed them. We had picked 10 lbs of mushrooms!
Brody getting ready to leave the house this morning. Right before we left, he decided he wanted to wear his yellow mud boots instead. Why did I buy him tennis shoes?
