Today has been a good relaxing, rainy day. I love Saturdays when you get to sleep in, and when you finally wake up, read a book (until you 'lil baby sis. drags you out of bed by getting into you bracelets-- I tell ya, shes a MESS).
NOTE: Police men not allowed to read further!
So, Today all 9 of us set out in our 5 seater Ford truck (you know, the one without 4-wheel drive.) to put out some corn out around some of my Dad's hunting land. We couldn't have taken the van because we had to drive through the woods. Well, we got to Irwin Ville when 2 police men drove up, and thankfully past by us with out noticing. You see, we have had "GET DOWN" drills... We are like pros now with all of our experience! lol :) So, we got past them and then drove to the trash dump... that's where the big kids (Hannah, Gracie and I) got in the back of the truck, and the littler kids (Zeb, Zach and Lydia) moved to the back seat. So we set off, down the highways, and dirt roads. We stopped at two places. One stop, we walked beside a pond to look for turkey tracks. We found a few. And Dad found a flint stone :) Zeb and Zach were excited about that! Lydia and Gracie picked some sour grass and gave it out to every one who was on the back of the truck. I love chewing sour grass its so, so sour! Ida Marie really had a fun time getting to adventure out into the "deep woods". We got a kick out of her smiling to us on the back of the truck as she looked out the window!
All in all it was a very fun, eventful day! I love living in the country, and America it-self. I thank the Lord for all of these good times to spend with my family. And man are we gonna have A LOT of memories to tell our children when we grow up!
