Philly Farm Fun

On Tuesday Bryant needed to finish a forestry shortcourse he was taking with his dad in Philadelphia.  Since Emerson and I didn't have Kindermusik on Wednesday, we decided to tag along.  Bryant took a Wednesday off and we made a day of it.  Grams had a meeting so Emerson and I decided to waste a little time and have supper at Wendy's before heading over to the house to play.  
we've discovered dipping into
honey mustard!
There's always so much to see and do at Grams & Pop's house.  Emerson has to get reacquainted with everything.  So, while we waited on everyone else to return, that's what we did!

checking out the new grill

taking a ride in the wagon

nothing would do except getting
on the 4 wheeler

Phones are always fun

Our other favorite

playing???

now we're playing! 

so deliberate 

All the toys, and we want to play with the computer,
calculator, & phone

more buttons!
  After everyone made it home safely, it was past time for bed.  But Wednesday's schedule was jam packed with fun.

We knew playing on the farm would be Wednesday's main attraction, so after sleeping in a little, we made our way out to Dixon.  There's almost too much vying for Emerson's attention at the farm.  Between the barns, the trees, grass, leaves, sticks, rocks, dirt, and the tractor; Emerson could explore for days and be happy!  He is hooked on tractors and trains at the moment, so playing with Daddy on Pop's tractor was a blast.  So much so, that we did not want to get down at all!

Let's go!!






checking out the baby trees too!

Sticks.  Best toy God ever invented.

the grass is as tall as Emerson!  Perfect to play with!

We did have to leave though because we had to go make sure everything was okay at the fair cabin!  We didn't stay long though because Pop had to make a quick stop by the church before we headed home for lunch. Papaw came by for lunch too so we were able to see him Tuesday night and Wednesday before we left!  I just realized that I forgot to get a picture of Emerson with Papaw or Grams this time!  Oops! After our nap, we played and visited a little more before Grams and Pop had to head to church.  After having so much fun, we decided it was time to pack up and head home.

Is it fair time yet??
Easter eggs and napkin  holders go together quite well



A quick stop for supper and we were on our way.  Our arrival was delayed since we ended up on the side of the road for an hour.  Instead of taking the Natchez Trace as usual, we decided to take Highway 25 home.  In Lena, MS a lady tried to make it across the highway and didn't see a guy coming.  Thankfully, no one was hurt!  Selfishly, I'm glad it wasn't us and that it was in front of a gas station.  But while Daddy helped and waited on the Highway Patrol, Emerson and I had fun playing in the car and in the grass in front of the gas station.  We finally made it home and after our exciting hour on the side of the road, everyone decided it was bed time.
