Farm Play!

It's always fun when the grandkids come to visit, but I feel very special since Theresa didn't get to come and she entrusted Kelton and Katie with Moi while Eric and Papa did an annual on the Cessna 140. I must say - we all had a great time. So much to do and so little time to do it in. So on Saturday, we fed Blackie and the Donkey, played on the giant pumpkins, played with L.T. and Emmy, rearranged sand in the sandbox and made some wonderful mountains, carried leaves, rode bikes and 3 wheelers, Nana also gave 4 wheeler rides, and entertained each other in the house. Whew! Did I say we were busy - even got a nap or two in plus Kelton watched a little Nascar before they headed back on Sunday. We had an absolutely beautiful weekend. Eric and Papa also showed the 140 to an interested buyer from Kansas City. So I'm glad they got that done on Saturday. We grilled steaks outside and Papa's corn on the cob was a huge hit! Katie and Kelton ate really good!! (Must be my great cooking! or just the activity we all were involved in) Works up a girl's and boy's appetite. Kelton had never rode on the new John Deere so Papa started it up and chugged around the farm. Katie wasn't too thrilled with the green tractor. They all headed home Sunday afternoon. I'm sure Daddy kept the snacks pumped to the back seat!! Everyone will be home at Christmas time so things will be quiet until then. HO-HUM!!! Guess we'll keep busy working until then! The roofing business is officially shut down - so we can take off if we want to now. Although we have plenty of guttering jobs to keep us busy.

Papa and Kelton hauled off a dead stump, and Kelton thought he said he was going to haul

off a dead skunk! Hee Hee!!

This is good stuff.

Kelton wasn't thrilled riding a pink bike - but it'll do!

Katie is always intrigued with L.T.

Katie is so cute waving at the dogs "Bye".
