This week: A full crew today and after getting Harrison to work, we all put on our hiking boots! It was hot, hilly and a happening place in the timber! Everyone was thrilled I packed their water bottles to cool off on the ride home. Once back at home, the kids begged for LEGO play in the air conditioning-I obliged since we were all so hot from our hike. For lunch we ate chicken nuggets, cooked carrots and applesauce. After lunch, we changed into water gear, read books then went to pick Harrison up from work. Once at home, it was fun in the pool with cars, mermaids and animals. While outside, a baby raccoon fell from the barn roof and kept us entertained while outside. Stay cool out there today! Once we are done with water fun, we’ll relax inside!💦

Monthly and Bi-Monthly payments due on Wednesday morning. We had an extra small group today-just William and Charleigh here today. A small group for a crazy weather day! We have been in and out a lot, to make do with this rainy, sunny, hot, cloudy, stormy day! We are just going with the flow and playing outside when we can! We took H to work, let T feed Simba (it was raining, so the kids and I waited in the car), and now we are back from picking up H from work.For lunch, we ate pancakes, eggs and oranges for lunch-yum! The rain just sent us back inside, so we are playing inside and out Incredibles on to watch and play this rainy afternoon away! Have a great weekend!
Prompt pick up today, Harrison works 5-10. We wore our hiking boots for the goat check today and had fun walking trails with BIG hills! The goats are pretty far back into the timber now and the kids are troopers for making the trek back to see them! After our goat check, we went home and played outside. It was gorgeous out and so nice. We stayed out until lunch time, then came inside to eat cheesy chicken pasta, peas and peaches-yum! Grandma and Papa stopped for a visit over lunch to say HI. Once Harrison got the mower up and going again, he decided to go out to mow after lunch, so we are going to stay inside until he gets away from the house with the mower. We’ll head back out soon to play some more in the sunshine!☀️ Have a great afternoon!
Tomorrow: weekly fees due, goat check in the morning, prompt pick up to take Harrison to work We are loving these gorgeous days! We started with a goat check and it wasn’t too muddy, so we all trekked to the back of the timber to feed Simba. The boys did a great job running the hills on the trail! We came home and played outside. Favorites were the water table, beach ball and pool noodles and just being silly and running around. We went inside at lunch time and ate pancakes on a stick, fruit cocktail and vanilla yogurt. After lunch, we had a quick quiet book time while I cleaned up and then we took H to work. We are home now and getting some down time in with a show while Benny snags a nap. We’ll definitely be heading back outside later!☀️
Wednesday: Goat check in the morning, prompt pick up (taking Harrison to work 5-10) Yea for sunshine and no rain! We started with a goat check then delivered Harrison to the firework stand. We came home and played outside until lunch time. Chalk, water table, army guys and lots of cars were played with. The older boys wanted some work to do, so I found them some! They weeded around the firepit, steps and tractor tire flower bed. After they were done, we filled the tractor tire with fresh dirt and then they played away in the dirt! They definitely won’t be leaving here clean, but they did have lots of fun! We ate chicken nuggets, pineapple and green beans for lunch. After lunch, we read DON’T BLINK! We are watching an episode of Bunk’d at the moment and when it’s ice, we are heading to the stand to pick up Harrison and then back home to play outside!☀️
Tuesday: Goat check at 9, drop H off to work at 10, pick H up from work at 2 Washout Monday for sure! It was pouring down rain at goat check time, so Harrison stayed with the kids while Tori and I walked in to feed Simba. We hope the rest of the week dries out, because it is a muddy mess in the timber. After goat check, we got word that the Fireworks stand wasn’t opening due to rain, but they still wanted H to work, but at 11:30 instead of 10. We went home and played with slugs, cars and blocks-lots of creativity! Before lunch, we ran H to work, came ho e and made quesadillas, yogurt and corn for lunch. It was still pouring rain after lunch, so we voted on either a show or movie after reading books. They decided on watching The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. We then loaded up in the rain again to pick up H and came home to have a snack. After snack, we pulled out the potato heads and tools. Lots of indoor play with quick (and wet) outings!
Happy Father’s Day to all of the awesome dads this weekend!It was rainy, but we made the best of it! We dropped Harrison off at work and then took off to feed the goat. We got stuck in a downpour and had fun with it! Timber, mud and rain...and lots of giggles! We took our muddy boots off and then ran inside to dry off once we got home. Heath came home early, so we all ate lunch then loaded up to pick up Harrison, just to drop him off at a friend’s house for a weekend getaway. Once back at home, we finished a project and then loaded up in Heath’s truck to go get a load of compost. The kids LOVED watching the loader fill the trailer. We are back home and Corbin wanted to work on his baseball cards and Charleigh and Rylan wanted to play with the basket toys-so that’s what we are doing. Have a great weekend!
Weekly fees due today. We started out taking Harrison to work, then a goat check and then a run into CR for one last search for a new pool. Unfortunately, we didn’t have any luck in the pool department, but we did find a little sand/water table to entertain for a bit. We came home, played outside and got the water stuff ready for after lunch. The kids are finishing up lunch right now (pizza, corn and oranges). After lunch, we’ll have a 39 minute down time to get changed and clean up from lunch and then we are headed outside to play!💦
Weekly Fees due tomorrow morning. Another gorgeous summer day! We started with a zoom meeting for Harrison’s school permit interview then loaded up to check on the goats. The timber is always so peaceful in the morning! After that, we came home and got our water gear on and went outside to play with buckets, squirt guns, paint brushes and lots and lots of water! So much fun! For lunch, we ate taquitos, yogurt and bananas. We’ll have some down time for a bit and then head back outside!
Wednesday~8:30 school permit zoom meeting followed by a goat check, voice lessons cancelled for this week We thought we would start our day moving goats again, but after checking on them, we decided to leave them for the day (we’ll move them tonight). We played in the dirt with cars and horses, fed Simba and then dropped Harrison off for a mileage workout. We went home and played with Legos and blocks for a bit, then picked H up and took off for the park. We landed at Fish Park and were excited to see Paige and her crew at the park, too. The kids had a great time playing! We left to go home and make lunch. We ate meatballs, tator tots, breadsticks and oranges for lunch. After lunch, we read Ninja Chickens! We are watching a show now and then heading outside. I thought we would have water play this afternoon, but all of the kids have mentioned being cold-so I doubt we’ll pull out the water toys! Apparently with no humidity and a good breeze-it’s cold now!🤷🏻♀️ We will be going out to soak in the sunshine-I am definitely not one thinking it’s cold out there! Couldn’t request a better day, in my opinion!🥰
