Mini Moments on the Farm

In reverse order this is a photo log of a day on the farm. We took lots of pictures as it was Holly's family's last day here. They left early the next morning




Family Home Evening playing t-ball with Jonny's family in the backyard.



Grandma stopped by to say goodbye.




Folding socks at the pond.



CAPTURE THE FLAG PICTURES- The life jacket was the flag.




Walker here, was the secret weapon.






Jill taunting the boys trying to get them to cross the net line.




Little mud ball distractions.








Ohhh so close!








Their instant replay (this picture) that Walker did escape Jill's reach.



Mud ball makers.



Ladybug



Frog fun.






Another reward for getting all the jobs done is a trip to Grandpa's pond! Even on cold days the kids LOVE it!





Popsicles for doing weeding on last time before the Jensens leave. One of our jobs done daily is 1 hour of weeding and strawberry and raspberry picking until it is done. The reward is a Popsicle.

Just a random picture of lunch time with the kids at the table.

Emily on the swing

Collecting eggs for grandma. We have enjoyed lots of eggs and hatched many many chicks this spring.


Ginger our mini mare in the front and Maximus (Sunny Boy) the pony in the back.







Avery and Charlie Brown, Ginger's 2 year old baby.




Moving the pony and minis is a daily chore too. Every morning and night we take them from the dry pen to the pasture and back in the evening. The kids are good at this job and I appreciate their help every single day.



It was a full day but we have been so blessed to spend a whole month with cousins that live across the US. The Jensens moved to their new home in Wyoming the next day. We will miss you.
