Mom wanted some straw bales for her little chickies. So, Dad called up some dude and bought some bales. We just had to pick em up. Why not use some extra help when its hanging around your house?
This was Colleen's first experience at picking up hay bales - she did better than I thought - jk Colleen.
It was a hot one and I was the only one in long sleeves. I also am the only one with the least amount of straw scratches :)
Dad telling us about all the experiences with hay bales They used to see who can throw the highest. He was always the driver and Scott stacked and Grandpa and Lyle would throw up the bales when he was little and then as he got older he wished he had the driver position back. He talked about how Grandpa would throw the bales with a pitch fork.

Colleen and I were the stacking queens.
Then we drove it home and stacked it all in the shed. With all of our help, it didn't take us too long and we even helped out a neighbor. It's not really work when you are having fun and that's what we had. Lots of laughs, work, and sweating but a very rewarding experience with some great people!
