The Ripley Boys Visit The Farm




We visited "The Farm" last month. This was the boys' first trip to see the Lutton family in Ellsinore, MO. My Grandparents lived at "The Farm" as long as I could remember, and now Uncle Mike and Aunt Judie live there. Uncle Wes and Aunt Suzette live "next door" (for you city folk, that's actually about a quarter to a half mile away). The boys had an absolute blast, and they have been going on and on about it ever since. Judie is such fun and the boys loved chasing bubbles in the kitchen. I have such fond memories of playing under my grandma's feet in this kitchen as a little girl, so it was all I could do not to melt down watching them have such fun in the same kitchen, around that same table.





We went over to Wes's house and checked out his animals. There were sheep, goats, cows, chickens, bunnies...the boys were overwhelmed with all the fun! Vince tried on some farmin boots, and Aunt Suzette even had some of her boys' toys around for V & AJ to play with!






You'll see that Uncle Wes is holding a chicken here. He let the kids pet it, but somehow I didn't get a pic of it.




Needless to say, they are chomping at the bit to get back down there!
