A Full and Fun Saturday!

Saturday morning we drove to Bluemont, Virginia, to join our cousins at Great Country Farms. We had so much fun picking blackberries and peaches! Madeline got stung by a bee in the peach orchard which wasn't so much fun, but the rest of the day was awesome!







The girls got their faces painted! Here is a total of twenty dollars worth of face painting. FYI, on a hot sweaty day, it doesn't stay this pretty for long, so it's a good thing we took these pictures right away. Think sweat rolling down cheeks, hands smearing, jewels unable to stick on sweaty faces, and the novelty wore off pretty quickly. All except for Eddy, her's lasted until bedtime, and she was bummed that it had to be washed off.








We ended the afternoon going up and down this slide several times. And by "we" I mean Uncle Blake and the kids. Definitely a lot of laughing and screaming over this event.

After the farm adventure, we had everyone over to our place for dinner. Kent grilled chicken and steak for tacos, and everyone pitched in with sides and desserts. There are so many leftovers, I don't think I'll have to cook for several days! Thanks everyone for coming over!
