Last weekend E, his family and I went to the farmhouse. We had such a great time doing what we do at the farmhouse - nothing. We relaxed on the front porch, I played dolls, we explored Skyline Drive, E dutch ovened enchiladas for dinner and cowboy potatoes for breakfast, and we got to know Chelsea's new boyfriend Joe.
Connie (E's mom) didn't really feel comfortable inviting Joe to the farmhouse this early in Chelsea's relationship, but I guess Chelsea won out, because Joe joined us. He is a great guy, really nice, funny, sincere, and wonderful to Chelsea (which is all that matters). I think he enjoyed getting to know E's family a little better, and hanging out down in Central Utah.
Here are a few photos from the weekend:
We have two adopted pets down at the farmhouse, one is Zoey, the sweet dog I blogged about here, and the other is a cat, we call him Vampire Cat, because we usually only see him at night. Well for some reason we saw Vampire a lot this time, and during the day! He is a very funny cat, here he is trying to ask for pets when I was down on my hands and knees taking doll photos.
While E was mowing the lawn he found this butterfly. She was dead, but her wings had yet to fall apart. It was neat being able to look at the pretty insect without hurting her.
E is going to be mad that I am posting this photo, but in addition to cooking all the food for the entire group in his dutch ovens, he also taught Violet to cook in her very own oven that he got me for my birthday.
The sunsets down there are always so pretty.
Of course Vampire was very happy to help E with the bacon on Sunday morning.
After Vampire had his fill of bacon and milk he relaxed with Connie and the dolls (only one doll is mine, Violet is in orange).
After breakfast was cleaned up, we decided to take a walk. The sweet peas were in bloom.
Before we left we did some geocaching up Skyline Drive. This is s a photo I snapped of Chelsea and Joe when they didn't realize I was stalking them.
You have the coolest weekends! I love the picture of you and the butterfly! Really pretty! I'm jealous that you have a cool, relaxing farmhouse to hang out on the weekends! It looks so peaceful.
ReplyDeleteGah! Pictures of me on the intartubes. When I run for congress, that t-shirt will come back to haunt me. I will totally lose the pirate vote.
