We got together at my uncle's house (my cousins live next door), set out a lot of food, sat around the table and on the porch and watched the kids run around the yard. Seriously, that's what we always did at Grandma's house. Here is my youngest niece playing soccer with cousin Mark - note the dress did not seem to hinder her skills at all!
Here are the three youngest cousins chasing the remote control car around the yard. It was a hoot to watch. I'm sure Grandma was laughing. For the record, the car ran out of steam long before the kids that day.
And since we have part of the barn in the picture anyway, here are a few more shots of my uncle's barn, which is beautiful inside (with electricity and continuous water) and the horses really like it too.
