VISITING Grandma and Grandpa ELKINGTON
August 18, & 19
We went to visit grandma and grandpa Elkington, and had tons of fun riding tractors, going to the zoo, and riding horses. In addition to fun activities, the company was good too!

When I was little, hauling hay was a chore. My kids definitely live in the city, because they were having the time of their lives doing what I use to deem as "work"! Each one wanted a turn riding with grandpa on the tractor! Jacob was so enthralled it made being on the farm so much fun!

After spending all morning on the tractors, we spent all afternoon at the zoo!

RIDING HORSES!!
The next day we went to the ranch (Bone, Idaho) to ride horses, and play some more with grandpa!

After riding once with me, Hailey wanted to ride all by herself! She was a bit nervous, but after she did it, she was so excited!
Uncle Layne took Amber and Jacob on a four-wheeler ride to the top of the mountain near the ranch! They had tons of fun!
