A day at the farm

[glacier_kitty]

Today grandpa, mom and I went to the buffalo farm! Yayy..it's always nice seeing Jacque and Gene hehe. It seems like they never age!! They always look the same when I visit them. :P Plus that place is one of my favorite places in the world..it just has a nice atmosphere and I have great memories from there (like in 2003 when there was a huge family reunion). Jacque's daughter Judy came over and we had buffalo burgers for lunch (what else? Hehe). It's always nice seeing Judy too. We also went into Watertown to a thrift shop and got ice cream at Mulligan's. Judy picked her son Scott up from school and they came over too. OMG..Scott is SUPER tall..he's almost 7'!! I felt like a midget next to him haha (my pictures are amazing :P). He even makes tall people look short! I asked him if he was still growing (he's 15) and he said "hopefully!" Haha! Everyone in that family is tall, but he's the tallest (they all play volleyball too). I wish I could have seen Debbie, but she had to work (for new people, all these people are my cousins). After that we went back to the farm to say goodbye. I always feel so sad leaving there..that place has a huge effect on me I guess. Now we're doing laundry and relaxing at Ron and Teresa's house

Tomorrow we leave for London to visit grandma and Jack! We have to LEAVE at 4 AM..ughhhhh. The flight leaves at 9 something but we have to drive to the airport, drop the car off and I think you have to arrive three hours early for international flights. Blech..painful. The 8 hour flight sounds painful too..guess I'll be watching a lot of movies :P

Foraker I think

Grandpa's cat Richard. He's friendlier than he used to be



His newish cat Simba likes to fetch mice! Hehe. He's not as friendly as Simba though (I love his fluffy tail!)









Nice trees. One of my favorite things to do when I travel is observe the different trees haha /nerd

Huge tree!



Nice trees too



Me and Stephanie trying on dorky glasses haha

Richard likes bellyrubs hehe



Stephanie's dog Indigo has this weird obsession with fuzzy blankets haha

Gene and grandpa being cowboys haha

They have a record player!

Judy, her dog Bree and me. She's pretty tall too



I love this view by their house

I like the road too



Their house is 106 years old!

OMG hahaha..I look like a midget!! He must be an awesome volleyball player :P



I stood on the bench and I still wasn't as tall as him! Insane haha

Aww it sounds like you had SUCH a nice time at the buffalo farm! Buffalo burgers are fantastic too haha. I can not BELIEVE how tall your cousin is - that is CRAZY! If he's only 15, he probably IS still growing too!! WOW. That part of your family definitely seems to have the tall gene in it haha. You got some really good pictures, both of your family and of the scenery.

Ughhh being at the airport at 4 AM sounds horrific! Hope your flight went well and that you got to London safe and sound!

The buffalo farm looks so beautiful - no wonder you're feeling so "at home" there. Your relatives all seem like such nice and down-to-earth people.
I saw pictures of you and Scott on FB and was like "OMG that guy's TALL!" haha.
