Hagerstown Maryland #2


The sun setting behind the clouds.
Uncle Eugene and Aunt Laura were so generous to let us all stay at their house. It was a lot of fun!! :)
Relaxing...
Playing Volley ball!



Joanna and I got up early one morning and help Dorinda milk the cows at Uncle Dale and Aunt Eilene's. 
The boys also got to help, but I was never around when they were milking, so I didn't get any pictures of them.

Stirring up formula for the calves.

With their little pink noses and soft fur, you can't help but like them! :)






Barn cats getting their breakfast..

Sorry this is only a short post, I am thinking that the next one will be longer! :)

Hagerstown Maryland #1

Riding bikes around the block at Grandpa and Grandma's house.

Mom hanging out the laundry.

We helped Aunt Laura can 105 quarts of peaches. 
It was hard not to eat while working.. and we all got the stomach ache. :/


The next day Jenny, Joanna and I went over and helped Aunt Eilene turn six an a half bushel of apples into apple sauce, while Mom and Jessica went over and helped Grandma can 105 quarts of peaches. 
So we kept ourselves busy, visiting while we worked! :)

Joanna turning the apples into applesauce.


The boys stacking wood in the garage at Uncle Eugene and Aunt Laura's. You should of seen them, they were taking breaks every five minutes. Jesse comes in once with a big bump on his head from Joshua trying to hit a tomato with a base ball bat. And a few minutes later Jared comes in with a busted up toe from dropping a piece of wood on it. Mom was like "What next?!" :) They finally got it done though! :)
