Friday evening we kept Creighton and Anya for a few hours.
Saturday was a really nice day! It was sunny most of the day and there was a high of 60.
We finished taking down the ice rink. Almost everything is in the shack. After all the edges, goals, and lights, etc. were in the shack, Jake and Jesse cut and rolled up the tarp. It was taken down to the barn until the next trash day.
Meanwhile, Jacob and Dad were trying to burn all the apple branches. The branches were really wet, so we ended up taking them to the south grove.
Dad got a bit too close to the fire and got singed good!
After lunch, Jesse skinned his muskrats.
After a Farm & Fleet run and working with the cattle for awhile, we went down to the pond. Jake had a great idea for a motor boat.
It actually works pretty good. He used PVC pipe so it looks pretty redneck.The motor dies a lot so a paddle is kept in the boat………the paddle is also used to steer. It doesn’t go real fast but it sure beats paddling!
Levi and Jesse walked around the pond………I think they were looking at muskrat dens.
Sunday after church, Lexi, Wesley,Whitley, and Lainey came home with us. First we stopped by their house so they could change, then we headed back to our place for a short afternoon of playing. Sarah and Lexi played with their dolls for awhile before coming outside. Jacob,Ben, and Wesley went to the pond for rides in Jake’s boat. I went down a little bit too. After we got back, Jewel, Ben, Wesley, and I played in the sandbox while Jacob played with the little kids.
We went to back to Leann's for supper and more playing, and then, after supper, we came back home to get ready for the Easter program.
It was a pretty fun weekend.
THE END.
