May Long!!!

The view from the farm

Is it true... is summer FINALLY coming?

As a kid May long weekend always singled to me that summer holidays were almost here, only a month and 1/2 of school left then two whole months of doing nothing!!!!

Now as a mom I look at it different... Now it's ONLY a month and 1/2 till the kids are out of school for two WHOLE months..... I love having the kids home all day for summer, but it can get wearing. Good thing we live in a Lake community and we spend almost the whole summer at the lake!

Our May Long Weekend was an eventful one this year. We drove up to my mother-In-Laws farm in Sundre on Saturday morning. The kids were soooooo excited they love going to the farm!

Ben saying Hi to Grandma!

We had a great day playing on the tramp, riding the Gator and the ATV, meeting the new horses and donkey's that have come to the farm. We also saw the the baby fox's and the mom that hide under one of the houses.

Then the eventful part came. While Tracy and I were getting the kids ready to go home, my Father-in-Law decided to take our truck to get gas, so we didn't have to stop on the way home. While I appreciate the gesture.... he hit a deer on the way there and wrecked the front of the truck! He was fine a little shaken up and felt really bad, but fine. The deer died and our truck has over $3000.00 damage to it( if we're lucky). Good thing Tracy works in a body shop!

We had an unexpected sleepover at the farm.. The kids loved it!!! The next morning Tracy was able to fix the truck enough to get it home and we're home safe and sound.

Overall it was a great weekend I took a TON of pictures of the kids and the kids and a BLAST!!! that's all that really counts

I hope everyone had a great May long and is home safe and sound!
