Weekend at the Farm

This weekend, we took a road trip to Olmitz, Kansas to visit Brandon's grandparents on the farm. We had a great time, and here are some of the highlights...Each day we walked down the driveway to the "dip", where we threw rocks in the water. Then we'd go up the road a bit to the "giant ant hill" and throw rocks at it until the ants came out! We picked sunflowers, got lost in the corn maze that Grandpa constructed, and played "Annie, Annie, Over", a game where we throw a ball over the house and if the others catch it they have to catch us! Never a dull moment! We had lots of wonderful farm cooking, and the fresh air made Julie and Ben's allergies even worse! On Sunday, Ben and Mom and Dad went with Grandpa to the Hoisington Demolition Derby, where we saw all kinds of people, and all kinds of things! If you've never been to a demolition derby, you need to try it at least once!Then, we came back to Lawrence and began packing....we move in 18 days! Needless to say, the farm was loads of fun and we'll be back again later in the fall.
