Elli, Jackson, and Mommy were able to spend a whole week at Grandma's Farm and boy was it nice. Of course we had to settle in, but once we did and found our groove, the kids loved it. (We missed you Daddy!) They played outside all.day.long. It was so neat to see how magical it was for Elli - the way she just played make believe all afternoon, it did my heart good to watch her.
Jackson just loved it all (even though he did end up with some classic little boy bruises). He especially loved the dirt pile and the "alligator" as he called it. It was so nice to have a break with my parents and I certainly appreciated every minute of help they gave (and they gave a lot). Not to mention we had the luxury of eating Grandma Jack's awesome cooking (imagine chicken and pastry, casseroles, hams, rolls, banana cream pie...). I have decided we should turn that lil barn into a Bed and Dinner instead of Bed and Breakfast (we aren't big morning people). Mom you could totally make a killing! I'm cool with it as long as 1. they aren't there when I'm coming and 2. you don't start charging me!
This is what playing outside all day will do to ya!
Something about her being on the farm in fairy costumes cracked me up.
The new animals Ranger and Shadow.
Sometimes we got too tired, but we recovered!
Princesses and best friends on the go!
Look what Grandma made for us - a lil' get away. So perfect!
Special treat - we were able to see Grandma baptize Cousin Charlotte.
Can't wait to go back soon! Probably won't be long so don't even worry about cleaning up the lil house Grandma!!!
