The Taylor Ranch

Last weekend David's boss' family invited us up to their family ranch.  We went last year and had a blast.  It was a last minute trip but we're so glad we went.  We drove up Thursday night and came home Saturday night.  David and Randy had a meeting in Winslow Friday morning and then we had the rest of time to play.  The kids had a blast being outside.  The first day it snowed and the next day was a sunny mid-50's and Cyrena and I got a sunburn.  Go figure.

It was fun to see Anna all bundled up!

I can't remember what she's crying about but this is a great shot of the snow falling.

Anna watching the snow from the covered porch--it was beautiful

Oh my girls, what will we ever do if we have a boy??  I still can't believe I got this shot, all three smiling and happy. 

The ranch is beautiful with a handful of buildings, tons of land, a fire pit, swing set, a creek, tractors, etc., etc.  Paradise for kids basically.

Anna was a great traveler this trip.  She kind of lost it the last day while we were packing the car.  She doesn't like to just watch the action, she wants to be in it. 

Since we had a couple fires we burned through some of the wood pile so David and Randy chopped up some wood to replenish it.  They gave us girls a turn as well.  Here Brittney is hitting the wedge into the log to make it easier to split and Randy is giving a devotional about not letting wedges come into our marriages...

That's MY man!  And I quote: "There's just something about when you swing the ax and the log splits that makes you feel manly."  I love him.

Randy also took some family pictures for us while we were there, I'll post them soon.
