Country Boys!

We accepted another invitation to my cousin's farm and headed out this morning. The buddies have come to refer to it as "the farm" and have grown pretty fond of the place. That's probably because both times we've been there they've made a cool craft and had plenty of outdoor time. Today, they made bird's nests out of chow mein noodles, chocolate and butterscotch chips, and jelly beans. They loved it!




Next, they enjoyed a special treat: fishing! Grandpa, are you jealous?? Ace particularly loved fishing and held onto his pole long after the other boys had grown tired of the sport. Check out the picture of him happily fishing with mud on his legs, a bruise on his cheek, and a shiner under his left eye. As he regularly informs us, he's a "tough kid".




After a few hours of fun, we loaded up two exhausted kids and headed home. Both slept on the ride home. Ace awoke as we pulled into the garage and said, "I go back to the farm?" Thanks for the fun day, cousins!
