A couple of months ago, my Mom and Dad bought a house in Oklahoma. It was LONG overdue and I am SO excited for them! It's a beautiful 19ish acres in the country. I got the chance to visit them during a very exciting time. They had JUST moved in and were buying fun 'toys' to work the property with. We had a blast up there with them. I have a few blog posts with pictures that I want to post. I'll have more soon too because we get to fly back up there next week to see them AND my Brother's family. YAY!!
 |
| One of the first things that came home was a tractor. It's my dad's favorite color ;) |
 |
| Raelee and Papa worked the fields...bush hogging till their hearts were content. |
 |
| And knocked down that pretty red gate you see back there. First heavy machinery problem... |
 |
| While they were bush hogging, I got to drive the zero turn mower....and drive it and drive it and drive it. For HOURS I drove it. WHEW. I had grass in places I shouldn't have gotten grass..lol |
 |
| And I threw a spring on the mower trying to mow grass that was too tall. Good thing he had the tractor to help fix it...being that his jacks were all packed still! |
 |
| A few days later (at 8 pm on a holiday weekend..nice..lol) I hit a water pipe and water came gurgling out. This is never a good sign, just so you know. |
 |
| It resulted in a deep hole needing to be dug and no water for about 18 hours. When you are getting all dusty mowing, and dirty digging a hole...it's not exactly a fun time. Oh yeah, and did I mention exactly how far away they were from the nearest gas station (i.e. working toilet)? | | | |
|
We had non-destructive good times too!
 |
| Like tractor/dirt bike races that Papa just never could seem to win. |
 |
| And practicing on the dirt bike. Raelee LOVED this! |
 |
| And fishing tournaments. Raelee got her a brand new free fishing pole |
 |
| And she nearly caught a Papa...over and over and over...rofl |
 |
| Turns out Raelee was a better zero turn driver than us all combined! |
 |
| Raelee got new rubber boots...aren't they adorable. |
 |
| The big boy cousins played on the little kid bikes...and had a blast. |
 |
| The little cousins got to race their dirtbikes. Brian was taking it easy on Raelee until he realized she could ride that bike...and well too..lol |
We had a lot of fun and look forward to many more trips. I have more pictures to share in the next couple of days. :)
