Fun on the Ranch....

Today we went to a ranch that belonged to a family that goes to our church. They hosted a get together for the Childcare volunteers to show their appreciation for everyone who helps take care of the kids at our church. There was a lot of good food when we got there, then the kids went out to the pond to do some fishing. The J-Boys have not done much fishing, but with a little help from some of the dad's they were able to catch and reel in some little fish....Here is J#2 with his whopper...
and J#1 with his whopper of a fish.

Then they got out the paddle boat and everyone took turns going around the pond in it. Here is J#1 in the paddle boat.

Then the children all got a turn to ride in the tractor. Here is J#2 getting to ride.
J#3 acted like he wanted to ride the big tractor then when he got in he decided he wanted momma. So this was more his speed.

After they all had their ride on the tractor then they loaded up into the back of a pickup and helped feed the goats, cows and donkey. After they came back then Mrs. J pulled out stuff for roasting weiners to have hot dogs and yummy smores. Needless to say we are all tired it has been a full day. Two of the J-Boys are napping and one is telling me he is not sleepy, can you guess which one????

How fun! We used to have a "great grace get-together" like that- I have great memories-- and your post reminded me of how much I wish we still did that.
