Scenes from the farm

The girls: Maya (6 1/2), Claire (8), Madison (8), Makenna (10). These are not squirmish girls (well, except Maya's not real fond of snakes)! They spent most of their time in the creek, giving themselves mud baths, searching out fossils, exploring the woods, chopping down trees and peeling the bark to make walking sticks, and only occasionally fussing over the spiders in their tents.

Makenna.

Maddie. (How did I get these kids with such amazing blue eyes?)

What's worse than Daddy Long Legs in your tent? "Daddy" Long Legs expecting babies. (Uh, maybe finding a wolf spider under your tent carrying her egg sack on her back?)

Farm kittens.

Don't touch the pans in the fire pit. Ever.

Smores. Even breakfast deserves desert.

Exploring.

Sleeping it off.
