FARM ENTERTAINMENT

On the resent visit from my parents, we decided to stop at the farm on their way home. Mamaw and Papaw were working in the garden so we found ourselves spending some time there. Papaw had a trick I had never seen before and by the looks of it, neither had anyone else. Papaw showing how to make a flute from the vine of a squash plant.
Levi's turnip carving. Nothing entertains a kid better than a knife and plenty things to cut.
Naomi excited about her large turnip find.....so much turnip to cut, where do I start!

Insects are always a staple at the farm. This Praying mantis gave us several minutes of not stop fun. Pop came up with it on his arm to show us, and it decided to stay despite his best removal attempts.

You can tell by Naomi's face this is pure enjoyment. Pop's, not so much.

The flutes being performed by Naomi and Levi. So, what do you think about that??? All we need is a few more people, a couple blades of grass and we could have a band.
