What else is new?

LABOR DAY MEANS CORN DAY
Here is the Annual Wilson Corn day in pictures:

Doug does the picking [3 wheelbarrow's full]

Then the "shucking"



Everyone helps...


Then Robin washes...to get all the hairy stuff off.....


Campbell entertains herself...

and stays close to mom and Pooh...


Grandma "blanches" the corn...

First a "cold" bath...

and then an "ice" bath....


Time out for Grandpa as he takes the kids across the street...

to the new "school" playground...


Nik bags..........


....and samples

Then we freeze the bags and the "reward????


p>

A delicious vegetable lunch.....tomatoes.......watermelon......and of course

CORN

And another tradition.....Grandma's sloppy Joe's.

Thanks Grandma for a fun morning!!!!

I love all the traditions that you and your family have. That corn sure looks good!

It was a great day. I'm glad I was there even though Campbell was a stink.
