We love long weekend getaways

We headed to the cabin for Memorial Day and then to Perryton the following weekend for some good 'ole fashion family time!

 Lydia and Daddy both share a love for sweet corn on the cob
 Yummy to my tummy
 Sis loved relaxing in Grandma Judy's hammock
 And eating strawberry shortcake for breakfast is a must!
 My cutie patootie!
 Turner loves watching for deer, birds, and woodpeckers on the deck at the cabin!
 and who would have thought he'd be entertained by little plastic army men!
 Then the kids and I loaded up and headed West to Perryton.  One of the big highlights was taking the 4 wheeler out to see the cattle every morning
 Aren't the beautiful
 There were lots of baby calfs in the herd.  Unfortunately one morning, we found a dead calf and Turner got a lesson in death and the fact that even animals go to heaven.
 You can't be in the country and not wash your hands in the water tank!
 Turner and Mema had a good race & crash derby going on
 So proud of his straight line of race cars!
 Turner loves to play with Mema!
 Pops and Lydia loved sharing breakfast burritos
 Grams headstone was just put up over Memorial Day weekend- Mom did an amazing job picking it out. No doubt Grams is smiling down!  I love the verse that's on it-"She served and kept the faith, she concealed her tears but shared her smiles. She gave so much and demanded so little."  Fits her to a tea!
Love you Grams and miss you more than words can ever express
