Summer Vacation (Part 3)

The last leg of our journey was an all too short weekend at our dear friends, the Joneses. Their beautiful farm is located in southern Indiana, just about an hour north from our grandparents. We arrived after lunch on Friday, and left after breakfast- Monday morning. Daddy & Mama, and Mr. Jones & Mrs. Jones had a wonderful time catching up from 8+ years! We were so happy to be able to visit their family this trip, and always come away very blessed by their hospitality! Enjoy the photos!

Their beautiful home from the outside...





Some of my siblings waving from the dock... (Where they spent most of their time=)


Bo and John were together the entire time, and were glad to get re-acquainted!

The porch....

Mrs. Jones had much of the food prepared ahead of time, so she wouldn't have to be in the kitchen the whole time. Everything was delicious!

Her famous pumpkin bears; we remember from long ago...



A light shower came one afternoon, with the sun shining! (Photographer's delight=D)



Bubbly Russelly!



Great times!



Apparently Frank thought the spoon tasted better than the food... He didn't know what he missed!

Cookies!



It was so neat watching the catfish as we fed them... There were so many, and BIG ones too!

Emaline and Russell tried their hands at catching bluegill in little buckets, with their faces 6" from the water=)
Actually, maybe 3"!

Farrah texting someone... I wonder who???  =)

Frankie loved it! Although, someone held his feet in the water for too long, so a fish thought his toesies were food! That was a little startling=)



Back inside, the parents were catching up!


Love that vibrant color!


Truly, it is a Pleasant Place!

The landscape was just gorgeous, and Mama was inspired. =)


We celebrated Mama's birthday on Saturday!

Farrah keeping herself and Anna-Frances busy with play dough...

Awwww.... so sweet!

Well, Emaline had success once she got out the net!

Frankie and Alayna

Lily Ann tries the pond surfing technique...





Pretty good!


You can see who has the practice=)


Take a little higher of a leap,

and hit the surf board fair and square!



Thus, you get a larger splash, and you stay up longer!

Racing!


Desert!

Happy Birthday, Mama!


Group photo after church...
Thank you Joneses! We greatly enjoyed our fellowship with y'all!
And that concludes our vacation!
