Christina and I are modeling the cute little rings and clips she put together as trinkets for all the kids. They were part of a treasure hunt that had them digging up the sand box.
Can you see that carrot? It's a double! We had a good laugh about this oddball carrot.
Keira loves horses. She lets Ruby sniff her skirt. I think Ruby thought there was a yummy treat mixed up in all those colors. Keira was able to ride around by herself or with cousins.
We had a lot of fun activities going on all day. Trampoline tricks, tug of war, treasure hunting, horse riding, water balloon toss, slip n'slide and of course visiting. Grandma Betty and Grandma Dixie were out enjoying their family as well. One of the best games required two teams to attempt getting their whole team on a piece of material. Each stage of the game the material was folded smaller. Stacking kids, one foot on and holding hands and leaning out were all tactics used by the winning team. It was pretty entertaining!
All the kids slept in the tent city in Grandma's front yard. The girls all bunked together with Dingo as their protector.
In the boy tent we had to tickle the grumpies out of Jonah in order to get this cute picture. He did not want to wake up for an early morning picture.
Katie John mastered this cool trick and showed it off every chance she could. Neat huh? It's not as easy as it may seem.
Other activities included red rover, more trampoline and jewelry making by Anna.
A puzzle race was organized with two teams competing. It was John, Julie, Sherry and Grandma against Angela, David, Shaun, Katie and Jennifer. Each puzzle of was equal difficulty and 500 pieces. Ready. Set. Go! You're looking at the winning team!
One of the projects was to create a commercial for something. Ours was about being prepared.
Jonathan, Jonah, Mason and Justin depicted life on the farm as more than ideal.
