Family Farm

This past weekend we got the chance to go visit Phil's Granddad out at the old family farm. Nadia was thrilled at the prospect of meeting Great Granddad - and riding on tractors - and running around in the fields. She got to do all three. :)

Trying out an old Case.

Having a good laugh in the machine shed.

Trying out another old Case (we could still be there trying out all the old Cases)

Enjoying the playhouse the cousins built last summer.

Yes, somehow even I managed to haul myself up there...

Granddad pausing for a brief (rare) moment for a photo shoot on one of his beloved Case tractors. This will be his 2nd year not farming... ever. He's 83 years old.

Pausing on the green, green grass.

Playing with Grandpa until he was ready to drop. :)

Then dragging him and Grandma on a walk down "The Lane"

Aaaand, someone found a sled in one of the sheds - or was it the garage?

Yes, she went sledding on the grass, in May.
