We weren't able to have a big garden this year. Usually we have one at Grandma's house but the time has come when it was just too much. They have a small garden that they can manage and eat from but not a huge one to put away vegi's for later. So, my Mom went on the search to find us some sweet corn that we could put up...and finally she hit pay dirt over in Huntington. She came home Monday morning with over 12 dozen ears of corn and we sit about putting corn up on Monday. We had to do it all at Grandma's house b/c after all that is where you put corn up!
Despite Pawpaw's recent trip to the hospital, he helped when he could shucking the corn...Carli of coarse was his little side kick.
Ava did really well, she slept and slept and occasionally woke up to eat!
Carli never tired of helping.
Yummy! Cream Corn!
Carli did take a break and played in the sprinkler in between helping silk. Thus, she was just in her diaper...you'd be surprised how much water a Pampers can hold!
Carli even had her own special ear of corn that she snacked on occasionally!

It was a bit warm but not too bad! We are very excited to have corn again at the big family events! And it was pretty cool to put corn up again with Grandma and Pawpaw and my girls!
