Memorial Day at Da Farm



Matti takes a drive on Daddy's H Farmall.  Just sitting, not really driving, no need to contact CPS.




Uncle Darin has an International too!




The Beaner tries her hand at s'mores






Matti's first time fishing at Lake Shetek!







Mommy and Ella visit the family gravesites in Luverne






The girls check out the new hayrack.  Just need some hay and we'll be ready for hay rides!




Matti shows Daddy the heat in a pickup baseball game





...and this one's so stinkin' cute we just had to include it.





Oh the girls are so sweet.  At the train park in Tracy, they think these are steering wheels.  "Drive drive drive!  Drive drive drive!"






"Mommy, why doesn't this guy say anything?"





The girls check out the engine and the coal car






The train park was closed on Memorial Day, but the engineer just HAPPENED to drop by and just HAPPENED to be available to give us a train ride!  Needless to say we made a nice donation.





This little train last ran sometime around 1950.  The engineer took it into the shop and gave it lots of TLC over the winter, including a new engine and custom decals.  Now she runs as good, or maybe even better than new!





Steady winds mean a great day for flying the Elmo kite!






And one more picture of the Beaner because she's so stinkin' cute
