Down on the Farm

My friend from high school as been talking about taking our kids out to her dad's farm for some time.  We finally made a date work for all of us and it did not disappoint.  We had so much fun exploring the farm even thought it was mid-90s by 10am. 

We explored the lake and found shells, frogs and fish.  Bennett liked to explore but kept trying to walk into the lake, the kid loves water and has no fear.  Gabriel hung out with Allison, she was great at catching the tiniest of frogs and showing them.

Then we went on a tractor ride around the property.  The tractor ride was a little toasty and Bennett was falling asleep, but Gabriel loved it.  It was the closet he has been to a moving tractor.

Then as it was starting to get a little too hot for us to be out in the heat, we started a HUGE bonefire.  The boys had never really seen a fire like that before and being that close was incredibly hot.  We sat on the pack of the tractor in lawn chairs and watched tree slowly catch fire. 


Afterwards it was time for lunch and a drive home.  The boys slept like champs!
