This Saturday morning we woke up and decided to go spend the day at the farm. We had heard that the weather was going to be sketchy...but it turned out BEAUTIFUL! We packed up and were on the road by about 10:30...and we decided at 9:30 that we were going! The girls had an absolute blast! The whole way there, about every 5 or 10 minutes, Peyton said, "Grandma Gabel's house, Grandma Gabel's house!" Way too cute! Then she'd say, "Papa's pigs, Papa's pigs!" Boy were they excited! Papa had to get a load of hog grower (pig food) that morning, so we got there just in time for Brent and Jeremy to unload it for him! We could tell that we were "cramping Dad's style" by being there...he has his way of doing things, and when a bunch of people show up to help, he doesn't know where to start! Don't get me wrong...Dad LOVED having us there...jobs got done and he got to play with his little girls at the same time. I think that we just distracted him a bit from his daily routine of feeding the pigs and making his rounds. My favorite part of course was riding Jeremy's 4 wheeler on the new roads that dad has been working on! Logann said that her favorite part was the 4 wheeler and the "shots." Jeremy was shooting one of his guns and she actually didn't like the sound at all...even with ear plugs in. Funny that she said that it was one of her favorite parts. Peyton said her favorite part was the pigs and being with Papa and Grams. Grandma had a bowling tournament for most of the morning but made it out to the farm for that afternoon. She brought the girls candy, so that was a treat! It was a short stay though...we spent all day Saturday at the farm, headed in to the house for dinner, stayed the night and then took off fairly early on Sunday after breakfast. It is fun to do those unplanned adventures from time to time!
