Future Farmers of Bittner Farms

With planting season just around the corner or should I say with it possibly starting next Thursday, the boys are in farming heaven. Ever since the combine has been turned off for the last haul last fall, the boys have been desperate to do anything that involved the famous John Deere color equipment. They even offered to go for a 4 wheeler ride in sub-below zero. They truly have the farming desire there. Sometime last week, I discovered Papa 4 wheeler would be working on the equipment and possible taking it out it's first spin in the newly fresh black dirt. Papa always needs his little farmers for help. They certainly have plenty of questions to be asked from the little learners. Papa would run here and there, four tiny feet would follow behind him wherever he went. It was absolutely adorable to watch.

Getting their hands dirty while helping Papa with the disc.

Now lifting with all their might on the haro.

Cleaning up.....

And now for the REWARD... they get to go for their first of many rides this year....

Aw! To be able to sit close together, all the while discussing new farming strategies, soaking up the plethora of knowledge they can from their personal, farming expert, and also hearing and feeling their favorite piece of equipment under their little bodies. What an awesome way to spend the evening...

And then this photo is my absolute favorite and says so much..... Oh how they love their farming!!
