Jared took the day off work today so we could celebrate our 19th anniversary. He took Adam to school this morning and brought home bagels and coffee. We took a walk in the woods. Woke Jacob and dropped him off at school around 9:30. Then we headed off to Clare to drive around Amish country. We drove around for a few hours. We saw a team of horses that had a wheel barrow harnessed to them. The amish man and his kids would use it as a shovel with the horses pulling and take it to dump it. They drove the horses right up on top of the dirt pile. The house on the property looked like it was just built and it was beautiful. We drove behind a team of horses pulling a hay wagon. After awhile the man pulled over so we could pass. There was a couple of small kids sitting in the middle of the hay wagon. They smiled and looked like they were having fun. We stopped at the new amish produce store. It's owned by the man that own the farm that the amish auction is on. He always remembers us because of Wyatt, "Shada hound." We bought a big bag of Zastros popcorn and also got some ice cream cones. Wyatt rode along with us in the back seat of the car. We had the windows down and it was a nice day. When we got home we had some soup. Jared picked the boys up from school. They helped us dig up potatoes in the garden. We also pulled the onions and picked peppers. Eli took a couple carrots to feed Bo. We went to the store on our way to pick up Adam from soccer practice. We picked out some anniversary cards to give each other. We ordered Pi's Chinese and also picked up pizza and breadsticks for the boys. When we got home Jacob had to leave for band practice. We watched the movie Sonic. Some people came over this evening to look at our tractor and they bought it. Yay! We brought the potatoes in and cleaned them up and put them away to store. We put the onions out of the deck table to cure.
