Weekend at the Farm

I took the babies on a trip up to Firth, Idaho this weekend. My girlfriend, Kjersten's grandparents owned a farm there and it has since been passed down to her mom since they have passed away.

What a great place for the boys to roam free and play!
We of course had to make a trip to the state fair that was in Blackfoot.
Last time I had been there was for a Tanya Tucker concert circa 1992.

Boys trapped in a pig pen. Just like their rooms, they felt right at home.

Of course we had to pay through the pigs nose for Americana food.

Bowling on the farm with wagon wheels on Sunday afternoon.

Graham took this very seriously.

We picked some yummy peaches. I'm going to freeze them for delicious things this winter.

The boys found bugs to their hearts delight. They also were able to ride a rope swing for the first time. Talk about grinning ear to ear - they thought that was the coolest.

Learning to rope. He brought this rope to show and tell at preschool today. He loved it that much.

Aside from a minor incident or two - the boys had a terrific time with Kjersten's boys and it was a great relaxing weekend! I came home feeling slightly claustrophobic though and told Dan I need more land!
I'm certainly not the farming type but I could be alright with an acre or two!

Hope you had a great Labor Day weekend and sent the summer out with a bang (or in our case, ye-HAW!)
