While the purpose of us getting together was not fun (my grandfather passing away), it was good to be together with my parents and siblings. We have not been together very often as a family since Dad, Mom, and Pete live in Tallahassee, FL. Betsy has been living in Bolivia for the last 5 years (up until November of last year) and Jamie is in Indiana. It has been fun to see how each time we get together I think we have a deeper appreciation for one another and the opportunity that we have to just be family.
We really enjoyed being on the farm. It was nice to have space for Joshua to fun and play, though I think his highlight was getting to drive the tractor with Papa! Everyday we were there he would OFTEN ask his Papa, "Can we go ride the tractor?"
"Nana" was as close to heaven this side of eternity as she could be...she had her 3 grandchildren with her. Some of the hardest choices she had to make during the week was which one to play with :o)
When Joshua got home from being at the farm he sang this song..."Old McDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O, and on the farm he had a tractor E-I-E-I-O. And on the tractor there was a Papa, E-I-E-I-O!"
Joshua being suave on the hood of his ride!
Joshua playing with Uncle Pete. He loves being with all his uncles and aunts!
