Work Day


We headed up to Rolfe on Wednesday night for Easter weekend. The kids were super excited to see Grama Mary and Papa Dan, not to mention their cousins. We spent most of the day unloading wood from the farm. Maison and Libby road with Papa all the way to the farm and Jason and I joined them later in the truck.

We picked up the wood and headed back into town. Me in the truck; Jason and Libby in the Allen Bro's truck with the wood; Maison and Dan in the tractor. As I looked back in the rear view mirror, I noticed the tractor heading straight for the ditch. Then it took a turn toward the other ditch. Maison must have been driving or Papa fell asleep. I couldn't stand to watch anymore, as I knew we definitely couldn't replace a farm tractor, so I sped up behind Jason and Libby.


Seeing Libby in the truck with Jason brought back a lot of memories! Watching them from behind, I could see her little head tucked right in beside Jason, shoulder to shoulder. Reminded me of all the times I road with my Dad in his truck. Standing right beside him in the front seat!
Daddy, Uncle Rog, and Papa unloaded the wood in the shed, while Maison and Libby climbed all over the truck! I asked where all of the wood came from, wondering if it came from and old barn or something, when Maison snidely says "it came from the farm, you saw Papa pick it up." Duh, but how did it get to the farm?




Too much fresh air! Libby came in, sat on the couch, and fell asleep immediately! Not much of a cow girl!
