At the beginning of this year, I told my husband that I would make a vegetable patch in the yard, and I would grow vegetables, strawberries, etc. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info It wasn't until April that the weather warmed up, and my husband nailed a square with a wooden strip, saying that it was my garden, a vegetable patch, for me to see. I said, "It's too small!" I want to eat more. My husband said: Who knows if you are playing. If you really feel good this year, I'll get you a bigger vegetable patch next year. So he called John, two of them

I went to the supermarket and bought the soil for growing vegetables and flowers, and directly spread the soil on the grass, saying that the grass underneath is also fertilizer. What a stingy bag! Such a big yard made me a vegetable patch the size of a palm! I despise you so badly!

Next, we went to the supermarket and bought tomato seedlings, pepper seedlings directly planted on the ground, and many kinds of seeds, such as peas, sword beans, carrots, onions, radish, spinach, lettuce, etc. The palm-sized vegetable patch really can't grow so many seeds. My husband planted half of the crop and left half of it, saying that some vegetables could be planted again after the harvest. It was very interesting for me to watch my husband grow vegetables upstairs, and I took a ruler and a rope to measure the length and calculate the distance. What an engineer!

After planting the seeds, my husband came back every day to look at the menu, and at first I boasted that I would water and water the flowers every day. But then I forgot about it, so my husband came back every day to water it himself. Slowly, the task of watering fell on the husband's head. My husband bought tomatoes on the shelves and made nets for peas and sword beans to climb on. He also pulled out a lot of small seedlings, saying that they couldn't be allowed to grow too crowded, otherwise they wouldn't grow big. It's a pity that there are so many dishes!

But the angry thing is that my husband is in a hurry to harvest, so he pulls out the little carrots that have just grown, washes them, and tells me that they can be eaten! I am so angry, this is too small, right? I said can't you wait for them to grow bigger? My husband said, they are so big, you can eat them! I am so angry! I am so angry! I say: You are not allowed to pull my vegetables again, I will pull them myself!

This is the carrot baby that my husband plucked, and they can actually grow even bigger!

That day, I read the blog post "American Farmhouse" by Boyou ---- Erniu and his mother, and I thought it was very interesting. I remembered that when we drove past a farm near our house last week, my husband asked the eldest lady if she wanted to play CornMaze (cornfield maze), so the weather was fine this Sunday, so the whole family went over to play together, and Skylar.

This is a family-run private farm--- Waldoch Farm, first purchased in 1916 by husband and wife William & Anna Waldoch, and started operating in 1919. After several generations of management, it not only breeds various animals, grows vegetables, corn, but also grows and sells flowers, etc., covering an area of 40,50 acres.

The Cornfield Maze is the main show. This is a cornfield maze diagram. My husband, who grew up on a farm, said that farmers first plant corn, and when it grows, they use GPS in the air to locate the maze route on the ground, and then drive a harvester to cut out the maze route in the corn field. The maze diagram is different every year. The small picture in the picture below is part of the farm taken from the air, and the lower right corner of the small picture is the greenhouse of vegetables, flowers, animals, etc

Labyrinth Rules: Must have a wristband (tickets wrapped around the wrist)

It is strictly forbidden to run

Walk on the road

If necessary, ask someone wearing orange clothes for help

Speed limit: 3.47mph

At the end, he added a very funny sentence: This year's corn is really dry!

Every letter you find is filled in on the map

There are also stools made of straw in the cornfields

Look at this year's dried corn, right?

As soon as the eldest lady and her good friend Skylar entered, they said that they were going on their own and would not be with us. I met them once in the middle, and my mother hurriedly took a photo

We walked slowly through the cornfield with the tadpoles. First go by yourself, if there are too many forks, my husband will look at the map. We don't have that much time to hang around here, and we have to take the kids to play other shows

Tadpole children face this endless cornfield, their hearts are surging, and their thoughts are myriad! The girl is imagining the future~~~~

Hey, Mom, stop shooting, keep up with the team

My mother took the opportunity to teach the girl to learn Chinese: corn. Later, the girl pointed to the corn and said vigorously!

Replenish energy

Accidentally, the girl turned into the corn. I was so anxious that I only shouted, people didn't listen to you at all, so my mother had to go in and pull her out

Sing a corn song on a stool

There was a map and we easily found all the letters to fill in

The two girls had already come out and played in the square

This is a miniature maze specially prepared for toddlers, and the tadpoles are having a lot of fun

Play with cobwebs

The girl climbed up the haystack by herself

You can also take a tour of the farm for a week on the farmer's uncle's tractor, which is a wooden carriage made by the farmer, which is very interesting

Every year we drive back to Montana on Thanksgiving, and this year is no exception. The family hit the road at 9 a.m. on Wednesday morning, and the weather was pretty good. Although the tadpole children were tied to the Booster by their fathers, they couldn't stop their enthusiasm for dancing. The girl was in the car with the music, her two little shoulders swaying from side to side, or her head stretched forward rhythmically, her two feet swaying up and down, left and right, or simply grabbed her feet with both hands and twisted around, and kept squeezing her eyebrows at her mother and sister. After jumping for a while, it is estimated that the girl is not happy, so she simply threw off her shoes and tore off her socks to jump. Of course, I didn't forget to bite 2 bites of feet, tadpole children are really intoxicated!

When it's almost dark, the sky is full of clouds

I had a bit of diarrhea halfway through. When I came out of the toilet, I saw my husband holding a tadpole waiting at the door of the girls' toilet, and my husband said: The tadpole watched her mother run into the toilet in the roadside rest area, and she was so anxious that she only cried "Mom, Mom", very worried, and wanted to follow in, but Dad could only hold her at the door and wait. What's even more fun is that whenever she sees the Changingtable in the toilet, she points her finger and shouts "Uh-huh", which means to go up. Mom said, "Girl, you don't need to change diapers now." But the girl didn't listen, so she went up and pulled the table by herself, and then took out the mat in the diaper backpack by herself, spread it out, and gestured with her hand to ask her mother to put the mat on the changingtable. Haha, she knows the procedure for every diaper change. It amused me and my tadpole sister.

This time, my mother and I also drove on the road for a while, and it took a total of 3 hours to drive back and forth. In fact, when I went back in June this year, I also drove for 3 hours, of course, every time I drove on the highway, my husband was nervous next to me and more tired than he was driving by himself. We have a high-speed requirement of 70 to 75 miles per hour (about 110 kilometers to 120 kilometers) on the highway, and the actual level of my driving on the highway is okay, but my husband has high requirements, and he wants me to maintain a certain speed whether it is uphill or downhill, turning, or overtaking, and I can't be fast or slow. Especially when I came back, the road from Richey town to Glendive was very winding and undulating, and the road for more than 40 minutes was constantly going uphill and downhill, and at the same time, it was also turning, which was very good for driving skills.

Thanksgiving feast, turkey, beef, ham, vegetables, desserts, etc., this year, in addition to the husband's second sister and her husband went to her in-laws' house in Virginia for the holiday, the other siblings are also reunited at the husband's second brother's house.

After a good meal, everyone was playing cards, and the tadpole children also wanted to step forward, but their mother pulled off the table, of course she was very unhappy, and she went down the chair to touch Uncle Ken's flowers. This time, the girl will run around, so in Uncle Ken's house, it is simply a bandit entering the village, rummaging through boxes and cabinets everywhere, climbing high and low to be mischievous, so anxious that her father yells at her. When the girl was proud, she took Uncle Ken's candy and gave it to him with a smile, and as soon as Ken said thank you, the girl immediately took the candy back. This teased Ken 4 times, making Ken cry and laugh: Erin, youareexactlylikeyourDad, halfangel, halfdevil. (You're exactly like your dad when he was a kid, half angel, half devil.) )

I finally took a photo with my mother

The next day, Ken asks Tadpole Daddy to help carry the haystacks that feed the cows. Ken raises more than 200 cows and feeds them 5 or 6 rolls of grass every day. Each roll of grass weighs about 1500 pounds. We drove to Ken's Barn (a warehouse where hay and grain were stored), and then Ken and her husband each drove a trailer to another pasture to pick up hay and transport it back to Barn. Because the farm is divided into several plots and the distance is very long, it takes 1 hour to drive from Barn, and there is a section of the road in the middle that is very difficult to walk, potholes, and the tadpole fell asleep in the car at first, and then was woken up by the trailer.

When he arrived at the pasture, Ken drove a tractor with paws to load the haystacks, which was parked there all year round. Along the way, I saw a lot of large equipment parked on the farm, harvesters, seeders, tractors, trailers, etc., my husband said that these equipment are privately owned by farmers, and they are parked on the farm all year round, and they don't even drive back in winter.

Each trailer is loaded with 15 haystacks and weighs about 10 tons. Sitting in the front, I was worried that the haystack would be turned upside down. It took 4 hours to load and unload one round trip plus 2 heads. At noon, we went home for dinner, and the three of us stayed at home, and my husband and Ken went to transport it again, which ended at half past four in the afternoon. That's a day in the life of an American farmer.

Tadpoles love to play in the fields

The two of them don't know what they're doing, kissing the car?

When we got home, we brought back 2 large boxes of frozen beef, enough for our family to eat for a whole year. It was the farm company established by Grandpa Tadpole (now owned by five brothers, siblings) and distributed to each family, and the company slaughtered one cow every year. Truly all-natural organic beef. I really want to move my Montana farm to Minnesota so that I can raise pigs, chickens, ducks, and grow fruits and vegetables. (To be continued.) )
