It was winter wheat harvest time a couple of weeks ago, so we got out there in the fields right outside our neighborhood and took some family pictures. The only problem was, it wasn't that easy; it never is. We ended up not being ready in the morning. Then Kate needed her morning nap. By the time we were all ready to go, it was almost noon. The sun was just too bright for this amateur photographer to get a really good shot. Plus, in most of them the kids look they are melting and dying. So, we did come home and take some pictures in the shady backyard. I think I got some good ones! I especially like that you can see the chicken coop and the rope swing in the background. Then, we decided we really did want some good wheat field pictures, so we went out again in the evening. It was still too bright, although the lighting did look pretty cool in some of the pictures. We were heading home when we realized the sun was going down and now was the time we could get better pictures, even though it was past bedtime. So, we ploughed ahead and I think we ended up with some pretty nice ones. Enjoy!

| I love this picture because Grant was so excited to see the combine, while Kate was terrified at being put up on the bale. |

| Kate was tired- it was about 9 pm I think and she wanted to be in her crib! |
