Time with Family

 We've had family visiting for most of the month of June.  With my dad and stepmother coming up on weekends, my brother in from Bogota for 3 weeks and my mom, sister and stepdad coming over from Oklahoma for a week.  The kids had a blast with all the company...

Playing up on the hill,

and watching a well get drilled

and playing some more

 

Building a new chicken coop inside the old house

 

The boys hammered most of the flooring in themselves

 

And helped my brother patch holes and build the little chicken door. 

We had a couple cookouts up on the hill

 

Complete with s'mores!

 

 We took a walk in the Bent Creek Experimental Forest

And found a little swimming hole

 

When the lake beach was too crowded

 

Annika showed no fear in the water. 

 

We also managed a new pasture for some of the goats, which I will post about later.  Everyone headed home early this week, and the boys have been catching up on sleep and missing everyone. And looking forward to next time.
