Planting Potatoes

This morning (like every other morning) Brody woke up wanting to go outside. He would live outside if we'd let him! Since it was a nice morning, we left the back door open so he could go in and out (and we could sit at the breakfast table and watch him outside). If you've had a socialite for a kid...you know that playing outside by themselves just isn't fun! He kept coming back to the door asking us to come outside with him. He never wanted to actually step inside the house (I think he was afraid we'd shut the door and he'd be stuck inside)! Finally he went and got his golf club and was able to convince Daddy to go outside to play with him.
They spent most of the morning playing outside. Mike even showed Brody how to plant potatoes! They had fun playing in the dirt. Mike found a few worms to show Brody (which Brody promptly squashed between his fingers)!
The outside fun ended when Mike felt burning on his leg and realized he was being bitten by a bunch of fire ants!
