Spring break :3

We headed to my parents on Monday and of course I think it snowed just for me!! I wanted to do all the fun winter stuff at my moms and we got to. The first day we were there we had lots on our to do list.....
snowmobiling, feed calves, ride the team of horses, ride the tractor, and ride the 4-wheeler. I think we fit all those in. Beware there are lots of pictures and I still have a couple more that I need to download on my computer!!




















Tay and Colt before they went on our ride in the fields. Tay didn't like it to much after we got done since colt thinks he needs to go fast and try to go on one ski when he's turning. Not good for a city girl that is scared of loud machines anyway!!



















My Dad was out for spring break too so we got to play with him and colt all week! There are some great perks for being a school teacher!!
















I wanted to show the kids how to feed calves since I did that all growing up. Luckily there was a new baby calf so we got to feed a bottle to him. At first they weren't sure but then they loved it!! When it started drooling all over and then wouldn't go back in the shed they were a little nervous but it didn't last long. It was fun for them to be up close and to pet it.























Our little buddy was in heaven while he was here. He just wanted his Grpa to take him on the tractor all day long. The kids soon found the horn and honked it the whole time while driving. We had to go on a tractor ride everyday.
Buddy now asks everyday when we can go to Gpa's to ride the tractor. Summer seems to be to long to wait to go up there!


















We got enough snow that we could take the team out in the field. This was our favorite thing to do when we were little. We'd go with our Grandpa and Dad to go help them feed the cows hay. We would raise sometimes to see how fast we could feed the calves so we could hang on the back of the sleigh and ski with our slick boots. This was a treat for us! When one of the horses of the team got sick we couldn't use the sleigh anymore. So my Dad now uses a tractor to feed the cows hay. A couple of years ago he got a new team and fixed the sled up. It is my favorite thing to do when we go home!!















How can you not be happy when we are riding behind two beautiful horses in the beautiful snow with my family!! My brother was so kind to come after work to drive the team with us, since my dads shoulder is in need of surgery. We did it 2 nights while we were there. It was so fun!
























The farm in the Spring is so muddy. I was glad that he brought his rain boots. Luckily we didn't have snow boots so I brought those instead and they worked great! His uncle kept telling him to jump in the puddles. Little did he know that they aren't the same puddles we have at home. These puddles have a little poop mixed in them!!! Nothing like pure fun right!
















While we were there one of the lambs had a little baby. We had gone to see the lambs that afternoon then when we went out later that night there was a little baby. It had just been born and it was so cute!!! We didn't have lambs growing up but my parents have gotten them within the last 5 years. They are pretty cute when they are little!














If you go to the country you have to be real cowgirls and cowboys right!!! Good thing that there are dressups for the kids to use!!
What a fun week we had together as a family! Can't wait to see all our family again in the summer. Tyler and I always say we have the best families and I think its true. We love spending time with both our families and can't wait to see them this summer!
