Eckert's Farm Friday, October 2

We couldn't make the trip to Eckert's with Jeremiah Network last week, so we went this weekend with two families we are good friends with, the Northcutts and the Watsons. It was a great day to go! Beautiful sunny skies, a little fall breeze, and great friends! How could it not be wonderful! (Just don't ask Tina and Cheryl about getting lost on the way there. He he he)


The younger guys: Mason Watson, Benjamin, Ryan Northcutt, Christopher, and Andrew Northcutt. They liked having the top of the trailer!

Ben liked picking the apples that were at his level.

As did Christopher, Christopher's level seems to be getting higher and higher!
Mason and Ben look so much alike, that at first I thought this was Ben.


Morgan liked to study the apples before deciding whether or not they were good picking apples.




If you look on Facebook, Cheryl has the picture she is taking posted. (Might be under Amelia's page.)
Amber Northcutt and Victoria reaching for the same apple. I think Amber won!



Love this picture of the girls!


Tina and Cheryl in such deep conversation, they didn't notice me taking the picture.





Jeffery climbed to the top of the tree to pick an apple for Amelia.


He needed to smell it to make sure it was just right.




Jeffery on Jeff's shoulders. These two had a thing going on all day about jumping on each other's backs.


All the kids after apple picking, while we were waiting on the trailer to come get us. Benjamin decided his apples were his baby.




The Albertson kids on the green tractor. I love this tractor, it's half buried!




Ben and Andrew, two peas in a pod!


The view from the top of the hill was amazing!


Gorgeous! I love living in the midwest!!


Morgan accidentally grabbed his Dad's pants....


and two right shoes! Poor guy!



Tori playing in the sand box.

Ryan and Christopher put-put golfing. (If you look in the background, you will also see Andrew, Cheryl, Benjamin, Tina, and Jeff.


When we watched the pig races, Ben was chosen as the cheerleader for pig #2, Hammie Ray Cyrus.

Since Hammie won, Ben won a pink pooping pig. GROSS! BUT, he is all boy and thought it was great!



Four great teenagers! (And Mason.)


Jeff trying to pick Jeffery up.
At this point, he decided to try picking him up the same way he picks Ben up.

Success!


Jeffery had to get his Dad.






We waited forever to watch the jack-o-lob, only to find out the guy who operated the thing had left for the day already... :(

Ryan enjoying his candy stick.

Right before we left.

Playing in the rain!

Thursday we woke up to pouring down rain. It was just right for playing in!



Tori laying down in the rainwater running down the side of the street.


The trampoline was SO much fun in the pouring rain!!









Jeffery's idea of "playing" in the rain.


At least he got away from the house!
This was before Morgan really got in to playing.




Ben loved playing out there!

Christopher was pretty happy getting to play in the rain.

Morgan getting into the game.
