Weekend of the Farm 2.0

We spent another fun weekend on my brother's farm in Kentucky this weekend.
We picked up Ryker from school and hit the road.

To say the kids were excited to see each other was an understatement.



Super Uncle!

In the morning, it was time for the barn!  Ryker and Cam couldn't wait to get out there.

David just got two new bottle fed calves.  The boys loved mixing up their formula and feeding them.  They full and tug so hard, it's hard work holding them in the right position and keeping them from stealing it.

Camden did a great job for his first time.

Cousins and cows.

Riella loved taking in all the action too.

David got the 4 wheeler out to take the kids for rides. They loved it!

The scenery is so beautiful!

This kid is in heaven down there.

This one loves his mama these days and says, "Carry!" a lot, which basically means he wants you to hold him.  He's rotten, but awful sweet too.

Robert and Ryker enjoyed a long ride on the 4 wheeler before coming in for lunch.

After lunch we headed to the park so Robert could get his 18 mile training run in.  The boys were eager to help give him water when he needed it. :-)


These two enjoyed their first time in the swings together.  So much fun!


Their park is so nice with two separate playgrounds and a huge pond and small golf course.  The kids played and played while Robert ran.

With only a few laps left, Kate stayed with the napping babies and I took the boys to feed the ducks.


Robert let Ryker run the last lap with him.  He thinks his daddy is so cool.  It's pretty sweet.

I enjoyed swinging with Cam and Hudson instead.


Afterwards we headed into town for some frozen yogurt.  Yum!

David hung Hudson's new tire swing while we were gone.  All of the kids were eager to try it out.

I got to feed this little man and get a little bonding time in.  He is so handsome!

Uncle Robert got some great cuddle time in with Hudson while we watched Frozen before bed.

Meanwhile, my boys cuddled up with Uncle Dave.

Sunday morning, it was back to the barn first thing.

The weather was so nice today.  David was to the left in the pasture putting out feed and calling the cows in.  It was fun to watch them coming in.  Some of them ran down the hill.  The kids loved it.

Cam got in a long ride on the 4 Wheeler today.

We had a quick lunch and get packed up and followed Kate and the boys up to Florence, KY to check out one of her favorite shops.  I was hoping to find a rug for our family room but didn't have any luck.

All the kids were asleep when we got there so Robert stayed in the van with them.  They woke up while I was inside and Riella was restless in her seat so when I came back out, Robert was sitting on the folded down seats in the back entertaining the kids.  He's so cute. :-)

It was another great weekend.  Ryker said he wishes he could live there.  The boys love life on the farm that's for sure!
