Let’s celebrate!
This past weekend, my cousin and her family came up for a visit. It was their sons birthday, so we had some cake and celebrated, then later on in the day went over to Knoebels. There was a ton of people there, but in the kiddie section the lines weren’t too bad.
The happy birthday boy!

After some yummy cake, naps and a thunderstorm we headed to Knoebels.
They were laughing hysterically on this one

These two were like two peas in a pod!
We loved having them stay with us for the weekend. Â It was great being able to catch up and have a good time together. Â Kids and all. Â We did get away in the evening just us four adults. Â Thanks to Micah’s mom for staying with the kids after we put them to bed. Â By the way, Micah’s mom, Darlene, went home Monday. Â It was nice having her here with us, the girls really loved having Grammy here to play with them as well.

The farm
We also went to a milk farm, which is where they raise cows to milk them later on when they are grown. Â The kids really enjoyed walking around seeing all the cows and calves. Â We even arrived just in time to see a calf being born. Â And no, we didn’t milk any cows, but we did get to see them do that. Â They clean off the udders and hook them right up to the machines. Â I think they give tours pretty often, so if you’re interested, email us and we’ll give you the info.
