This year the annual Post Farm Party to celebrate Mandy's boys' birthdays came earlier than years past....which means it was actually warmer. See all those short sleeves? And no one's huddling around the bonfire like we usually do! Typically, I look forward to this party as the true introduction to Fall...perhaps even early winter. But yesterday we're still feeling very much like summer time!
We met over where Mandy and Craig will be building their log home. The outhouse is already in place...and built solely by young Eban...who just turned 8! Guess what his favorite birthday present was....you got it...a DeWalt drill set from U. Joe! No doubt it'll definitely be put to good use around here!
All the kiddos are gathering around for the treasure hunt race as Mandy gives the instructions...
While the guys take advantage of the diversion!
And a mix of generations...both great and grand....around the bonfire...
Harlow brought up the horses...now it's time for the hay ride!
Remi's favorite spot....but where did G'pa go? He's yelling at the horses, "Go! Go!" What do think...perfect poster child for Future Farmers of America?? If you want to get little Remi to do ANYthing...just tell him he gets to go to the farm! And if that doesn't work...just tell him he WON'T get to go the farm! They say it works like a charm! : D
