Farm Visit - Part One!

We had a great time out at my parent's farm between Christmas and New Year. My brother and sister-in-law were visiting with their three kids as well so the boys had a ball together. They have two boys the same age as Liam and Ewan and also a daughter who is 7 months old.

We went down to the river a few times - the boys loved throwing rocks in. We threw in bark "boats" for them to bomb with the rocks which was a big hit!

They fed a couple of lambs that mum put in a special yard for the kids to see. Picked all of my mum's strawberries and ate them straight out of the garden. She also has a good climbing tree that they spent ages in.

We had a big BBQ brunch one morning too and had a bunch of my cousins and aunt and uncle plus a huge tribe of my second cousins. Was great catching up with everyone and we ended the visit with a huge water fight! It was so much fun - especially considering that we are on very tight water restrictions where we live so water play is non-existent! My brothers were the main instigators and the kids were happy to play along!

Liam and Ewan had such a good time that they didn't want to leave! We will have to go out more often this year - though being 4 hours away it does get hard to fit in with all the others things that we have going on.

I have more photos to put up so will do another post for them!
