My cousin, Kristi and her family got here last night around 8:30 after traveling with 4 children for 12 hours. I was impressed that they all were so calm when they got here--I must have to learn to chill out more.
Anyway, we've been getting ready for Prairie Days today. I want to take this moment to say that Cora Beth Bornemann is the most awesome female on this planet!!!!!!!! For real, she keeps things going and never misses a beat! I am so proud of my girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, we're almost ready and we plan to leave soon. Robert is staying behind to do the chores as he is already a great shot and needs to get caught up on taking his turn with the milkings. :) Thank you, sweetie, for giving us this chance to get away from all of the work and go have some sweet fellowship.
You are all invited to join us at the Dagley farm this weekend. My precious Cora is the designer of the website promoting this special event. Feel free to go to www.wix.com/prairiedays/2011.com and read about the great fun that we've had in the past at Prairie Days. The map to the Dagley farm is on the website too.
In case you already know the way but want a quick look at the schedule, I decided to post it here. Seriously, we have all felt so close to God when we gather there so I hope that He will give the nudge to whomever is supposed to join us there this year. Here's what's happening.
I'm sure that there'll be lots of pictures here soon. Dawn | |
