Granny's House

We Spent Saturday at Granny's house. We spent the WHOLE day outside.... it was great. The sun could have cooperated...and warmed things up....but I won't complain because it was not raining.

First we did a little archery. Emily had archery in PE class at school... and really enjoyed it. So Emily and Jake got Bows and Arrows for Christmas.
They had lots of fun. The bow string hit Jake's arm a few times... and he has quite a bruise on his arm to prove it.... ouch

Next we decided to chop/split wood for Granny. Jake and Rowdy did most of the work. (ok, all of the work)
Emily and I had to prove we could do it too. I am not sure any of us will be able to get out of bed tomorrow morning.

After all the hard work. We decided to go hang out on the grapevine. You always have to visit the grapevine if you go to granny's house.
Finally we finished the day with Smores by the fire.



There is something so wonderful about Granny's house. The woods, the peace and quiet,

the fact that there is always something to do.... and the idea that you can go outside and play...

Life feel peaceful and simple when we are there. I like it.

Today was a good day.

Even though it was a Saturday without the sun.

It was good.
