We went down to my folks place yesterday and had an enjoyable day. Hubby & the kids helped my dad with projects outside and Mom and I kept busy inside (mostly visiting, but dinner did get fixed too). Dad mentioned some things he would like done to the property that are of a nature that I could convince the kids that it’s not a chore and it will get done rather rapidly. Mostly it is removing downed branches in the woods to clear out any fire fodder and reduce that risk for the upcoming summer. Many of the branches are big enough that I can convince the kids they can use them to build a Survivor type lean-to that can be used as a fort.
Shelby had a BLAST exploring the fenced portions of the property. I don’t think she stopped moving for more than 3 minutes the entire time we were there. As a result she was extremely sedate for the evening and slept like a rock last night. We need to get down there frequently so she can take advantage of that more often!
Today the sun is playing hide & seek, and Hubby and I are going to take advantage of the peeking moments to get out for a walk.
