A Day On Grandpa's Farm

Last week we decided we wanted to go have a picnic up to Grandpa Farrel's farm. That morning I had to run to logan to get some things so Ike headed up there and starting trimming some of the trees and raking up weeks and debris that needed to be cleaned up. We got all the trees trimmed they look much better now and got the little area over by the corral cleaned up and put in piles (we forgot a wheel barrow so have to go back up and haul it over to the burn pile). The area over by the corral we want to level out, put in some more grass and make it a little picnic area we can go to. Wytten absolutely loved it up there, he just wandered around playing in the gravel, helping rake, feeding the horses, and trying to climb in with the horses. He was having so much fun he didn't want to leave to go home. There is still a lot more work we need to do up there, but it is coming along. We hope to be able to build a house out on the point of the field (picture below) within the next 5 years or so. Ike has always wanted to build up there and his grandpa told him he could have some land for all the of the work he has done for his grandpa while growing up. We have starting doing some little things up there and are going to continue to do other things to start getting it ready for us to build. But for now we will stay in our house and enjoy what we have done so far and continue to finish the basement and yard and enjoy that for the time being. :)
