We arrived around 1PM and sat in the enclosed porch and chatted for a while, and then Uncle Frank took Adam and the kiddos on a tour of the farm while Aunt Barbara and I sipped some coffee. There was also cat-chasing (with limited success, but Brady tried really, really hard, even going to far as to splay himself out on the barn floor while sweetly called out to them as they crunched their kitty kibble), a lovely sunset, and an even lovelier lasagna dinner (or, if you were Brady, a lovelier orange and applesauce and rolls dinner).
In what was perhaps the day's most fish-out-of-water moment for Abby, Isaac, and Brady, my cousin Tom's 16-year old son Gage came by was was cajoled into giving my trio a ride in what was literally a big green tractor. (If you look closely at the picture, you can see all four of them in the cab. Also please forgive the extremely cheesy Jason Aldean reference.)
It's always a blessing to reconnect with family and friends, so it was a good day. And I am grateful.
