My city boys.....

On Saturday after Jonna's birthday party, we went to GaGa's (my mom's) house. MeMe (Vicki) came over to visit the boys and with the weather so pretty, we stayed outside a good bit.  The boys LOVE to run in Mom's big yard! 
Planted next to Mom's house this year/season is cotton.  They supposedly have already come through and picked it but with those big machines, sometimes it seems like they leave more in the field than they really get.  Anyway....I realized the boys had never seen cotton or played with it.  So MeMe and I took both boys to the edge of the field (which is the side of Mom's yard) to show them what cotton looked like.
To be honest, I don't think they liked it or really knew what to think.  They touched it as if it was some sort of foreign object that they were not sure if they could or should touch.
But they did like walking and looking around in the cotton field. 

And I liked showing the boys a little things that they will only learn and hopefully one day learn to appreciate when they are visiting our hometown.
