Time on the farm

Tyler got to spend a whole week on Granny and Granddad's farm. He kept us busy all day long. By the end of the week Granny and Granddad had broke down and pulled out all three tractors for Tyler to ride. He helped feed Rawhide (the horse) every day. He had daily trips out to the barn to see the cows and try to get a peek at the "barn cat". He had so much fun feeding the geese, and going down to the pond to see the fish. He never showed a bit of fear with any of the animals. In fact we had to make him keep his distance with some of them, he wanted to get up close enough to touch them. He even went out in the boat to fish with daddy and Papaw. Chad, Granny, Uncle Steven, Aunt Kara, and myself took Tyler to his first amusement park. We had the expectation of staying only a few hours, thinking Tyler would get bored quickly. We ended up staying until 4:30 and even then he really wasn't ready. He had one expression on all the rides, which seemed to us that he wasn't really enjoying himself. Then we went to take him off, he would cry and hold on to the rides. Once we got to the water section Tyler was in heaven. We couldn't get him to leave. He had so much fun. We started him off on the little slides, but that really didn't do it for him so before long he was going down the big slides and loving every minute. It was a blast. On Friday (the 4th) we had a big cook out and had a baby shower for Chad's younger brother and his wife (Steven and Kara). By Christmas Tyler is going to have two cousins on Chad's side to play with. We had a great week and will be leaving again for Ky in August. This time Ty gets to spend two weeks up there, one week all by himself since mommy and daddy are taking a little get away.
