Fun at the Farm

Last week Annette spent some days in N. D. with Tori & Logan. Gretchen wanted to do some
serious sorting in the apartment with her hubby's help. So Lance took some days off from work and Annette took the kiddies to the most fun place that was close by--the Berg farm! (Thank
God for a wonderful hostess--Judy!

We drove North on Wednesday morning, picked up Gr-gramma Lillian and descended on the farm. When Aaron's girls came running out of their home, it was hugs and squeals all around--pretty cute! The kids ran and played all day, splashed in the shark wading pool, carried umpteen little containers of water from the pool to "wash" the sidewalk, blew soap bubbles which the wind delightfully carried away, enjoyed wagon rides, visited the woods, picked wild flowers, read stories, slept overnight in the big house. In other words, we all had a great time! With little Jacob in the mix, there were 5 kids, ages 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5.

Lance & Gretchen did get a lot of work accomplished, but said it was also like a second honeymoon just having the apartment to themselves.

And Great-grandma Lillian proved up to it all on Wednesday as she watched the kids, helped
keep track of all 5, and got in a little visiting too.

Judy did a great job of planning kid-friendly meals and just keeping everyone happy. Thanks,
Wendell & Judy, for letting us enjoy two days at the Farm!
