Planting Spuds

The stretch of dry weather at the end of March was so welcome around here and we didn't waste a minute of sunshine.  We put Dad/Opa/Chris on the tractor and set him loose.   


 It was truly a family planting activity and the kids were just as excited to be playing in the dirt again.  This year we took the risk of planting our own storage potatoes that had started to sprout.  We are hoping it pays off and that they are disease free because there are now a lot of potatoes in the ground.
  
It appears she needs a more seasonal hat...


 Not a bad spot for a well deserved snack break, if I say so myself.
