This weekend, Mark had Danika for the weekend so you can imagine how busy it was! Friday evening Mark picked her up, had to give her a little bit to settle down, and then we went to the Kodiak's game and sat in the Sky Box with my family.
Saturday Mark went target shooting in the afternoon while Danika had a nap, and when she woke up, her and I went for a walk out in the field and around the hay bales. Every time we walked by a tall piece of leftover straw, or a ginormous rock....she put it in her pocket or at least tried to which made things even more enjoyable for me to watch this all go down. Once Daddy came home, we got dressed and headed over to Calvin and Trudy's place for their little girl Brook's Birthday/Halloween party. So we spent the whole rest of the evening snacking, visiting, opening gifts, and eating Dairy Queen Cake! Did I mention that we had an hour long towel whipping fight? Ya, my butt looks like "carnage" (one source says) and did I mention it was 4 guys and 1 girl???? Ya I did some house cleaning against the guys and left them with some welts too! :) And by the end of the fight, we were black and blue, gasping for air, and jumpy!Sunday was the best day yet, we woke up had breakfast with Blake and Smitty asked us if we would like to help him and his dad move a herd of cows home! Of course we said yes, it was a chance to get outside, take advantage of the weather, and go for a tractor ride! So we put the Carhartts on with the long underwear and were out the door! We brought them from a pasture 2 miles away back to the farm, and let me tell you, when you have a group of 6 guys there's always something going on! I walked about 3/4 of the way because by the time the cows got tired we were walking right beside each other :) Mark and Danika rode in the tractor and of course she fell asleep in the tractor with Mark which was so cute! Then it was time to take her back to send her home...always the hardest and worst part of when we have her. We had a great weekend together and made a ton of memories...such is life :)
Mark, Danika and I, and Mark`s Dad....such a wonderful man.
