“If we keep no diary [journal], the path crumbles away behind us as our feet leave it; and days gone by are but little more than a blank, broken by a few distorted shadows. Life is all confined within the limits of to-day….”
Okay - before we start this post. There are ALOT of pictures. If you don't want to scroll through all of them, then just click on the video below for 3 minutes of FUN FUN FUN
When Cam was up here visiting, Tagg and Thatcher wanted her to sleep overnight on the tramp.
The next day, she said it was one of the most HORRIBLE nights she ever had.......... Yup - sleeping on the tramp is HARD (I know from experience)
That night before they went to sleep, we slipped down to the property to have some s'mores
Next morning I had them all over for PANCAKES !!
And a little UNO
A couple of mornings later - I had a WILD idea to make waffles......... FIRST TIME EVER ! I borrowed CJ's waffle iron, and my mom's waffle recipe
Some of the mishaps were: Tripling the recipe (in error), dropping all of the egg whites on the floor, filling the waffle iron too full............
But in the end, they turned out JUST RIGHT
Fresh strawberries and powered sugar made them EXTRA scrumptious
Later that day, after Payson's baseball game, we brought home some MORE yahoos Love this picture of Cam and Bright (two girlies on the phone)
Payson seriously can't take a SERIOUS picture Bright all ready to go with her stuffed animals - can you say ANOTHER SLEEPOVER !?!?!?
Of course we had to check out the goats
And play in the barn
Then disaster struck - with a HURT TOE
Blood and tears galore !
Back to the Property for s'more S'MORES !!!!
Back home to feed baby goats - this time with Elliot's help
Bright LOVES Miss Piggy........ Ha !! I just noticed, she's wearing Cam's shoes *To protect her toe I guess
Shower time is always SO MUCH FUN Here they are pretending to be sad little girls
Next morning we broke out the left over waffles
Then crazy Grandma said, "How about we break out the CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN?" Grandpa about had a heart attack !
Even though Grandma put it together upside down...........
Everyone LOVED it - including Grandpa
Then we painted birdhouses
Good job !
More swinging in jammies
More goat loving - still in jammies
More Chocolate ! This time, with a spoon (crazy girlie)
Over to CJ's to make Father's Day Cards
Helping Grandpa D make the lemonade
Hanging with THE YARD MASTER
What we've got here is a couple of BLOW HARDS
Hanging the bird houses
Fishing
Instructions on chopping wood
Hot dogs for lunch
I did get them all together for a picture !!! This is one we'll do every year - Re-Create again and again.......
Then CJ brought down a baby humming bird she found, and they tried to revive it with water, but it died in their hands :(
A burial at "creek" was in order........
Was our day ended? Nope - back to the barn (to feed baby goats), and play.
Then Mom and Dad showed up with Bexlee, and we swung on the swing some more
A good time was had by all !! Now Grandma and Grandpa are EXHAUSTED !!!
