A Day At The Ranch

August 8, 2008

We spent the afternoon at The Ranch yesterday, and it was beautiful! This is The Ranch that The Farmer spent many days of his youth working, playing, picnicing, hunting and many other things that created wonderful memories for him now. The Darlings too have spent alot of time at The Ranch, mostly picnicing, playing and fishing. The Boy got his first deer on The Ranch.
It is a place full of great family memories for several generations.
I cannot remember seeing The Ranch so green and full of beautiful flowers. We have had so much rain this year....the streams are running and the flowers are blooming.
It was a wonderful day....shared with great friends/family. The Farmer's sister owns The Ranch now....her love for this place....reminds us how much we love it too!
Boss....the daddy dog....had a great day too...I think he is actually smiling;)
While the kids were playing in the stream, the corn was roasting in the coals of the fire, The Farmer's Mom was teaching the children about beautiful rocks, cows were calling in distance,
The Boy was catching a fish in the stream, and I said to The Farmer, "life is good, a little different than we had planned...but....we are blessed to have moments like this, and live where we live, surrounded by family that we can also call friends."
It was a wonderful day at The Ranch!

Ahhh, made me jealous that I couldn't join! It's so awesome how GREEN everything is at home. I got back to Utah and thought this place looked like Afghnistan in comparison to Dublan!
