Friday afternoon we traveled to Hillsdale to hang out with Brian's sister, her boyfriend and a bunch of their friends & kids. The new boyfriend lives on a 450 acre farm...not kidding! It was amazing and the boys were filthy from head to toe and loved every minute of life on a farm. They explored, rode bikes, jumped on the tramp, swam in the lake, took a tour of the property in a 6-wheel jeep ranger, played with dogs, and even went to a rodeo!
The Farm: gorgeous views that stretched as far as the eye could see in every direction!
Friday night rodeo: cowboy lassoing a cattle
Another cowboy wrestling a steer
Take down!
Sam was inthralled by all the action, while Carter was more interested in...
...trying to escape to pet the horses!
Later that night we had a bonfire, made smores, ran around with glow sticks and did sparklers too...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, the kids had hours of fun in the dirt
went for a boat ride
Sam got tossed into the lake
Ryan and Sam loved jumping off the platform
Even Murph swam out to join us...silly old dog!
Ah, what a day!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day before we left, Sam helped me make some festive holiday cupcakes...
everyone enjoyed eating them, especially Carter!
HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!
