Kim & Boys at the Farm

Before Lucas turned 2 Kim & her boys flew out for a nice long visit to the farm.
They stopped to visit Baba at Lacombe & warmed her heart.

Lucas
It was cold so the boys cheeks turned rosy as they played in the snow.

Nicholas as the King of the Snowbank

Nic & Luc playing on the toboggan

Luc never met an animal he didn't like & he loved our cats almost to their death!!!!!

Nic riding the horsey Grandpa set up for him in the house where it was warm.

The neighbors had baby lambs to bottlefeed


Grandpa introducing Nic to the heifers

They all wondered who this little person was!

Nic enjoying a winter pear with Grandpa

The hot tub got used every day

Lucas enjoying an apple with Grandma

Nic & Grandpa studying the Bull Sale catalogue

Having a ride on the snowmobile

Learning about farm safety with a stickerbook
(notice the toothpick in Murray's mouth - well Nic wanted to copy grandpa so he was picking ice , haha, out of his teeth the first day & every meal after that he made sure to set out a toothpick beside his & grandpa's plates!)

Feeding bison & Nic cutting strings off the bale for grandpa

Luc & the cats again

Nic brushing Dayleen's 4-H calf

Luc sitting on Scott Kerr's 4H calf

With Great Grandpa

Cuddling with Grandma
We packed a lot of activity into a week but the visit still wasn't long enough!
Every day is something new to discover on the farm & wouldn't you know the day after they left we had our first calf. Hopefully there will be many more visits to the farm where there is much to explore. Nic was thrilled to actually be able to walk home from riding with Grandpa ALL BY HIMSELF. Like Kim said, in the city they never go anywhere by themselves. We don't realize how free kids are in the country.

Great pics Mom! THanks for posting. Nicholas still enjoys setting the table now and I caught him on the counter digging the toothpicks out of the cupboard yesterday!

Elaine and Murray said...

Yes the toothpicks! Definitely NOT one of my favorite habits at the table so I do hope Nic doesn't pick it up permanently, but it was cute.

Newports Cigarettesfour: Circumvention risk It is known that "reveres Nepal attains Canada" the micro movie "the language road" the plan through a series of conformity dissemination in less than 2 month-long promoted times, attracted has surpassed 80,000 The strip user publishes own "the language road" the plan Newport Cigarettes;

"The language road" the plan has surpassed Newport Cigarettes Website results in the google search key word, demonstrated the conformity dissemination has formed formidable Media influence Newport Coupons; In the socialized platform, "reveres Nepal to attain Canada" the whisky official micro less than 2000 bean or sweet potato starch noodles to Cheap Newports rapidly abundantly before the active political line to the close Cheap Newport Cigarettes people , disseminated in the time to be related the video frequency micro abundantly always to retransmit has surpassed 20,000 times, the cover crowd has surpassed 5,000,000, the micro abundant platform as well as the exterior platform always broadcast the quantity to surpass 10,000,000 times Newport Cigarettes.

Obviously, " Marlboro Lights Nepal attained Canada" the micro movie Newport Cigarettes "the language road" the plan coverage Newport Cigarettes Official Website, the influence, the dissemination strength to obtain the quite big success. However, The tobacco brand as a result of own particularity, is impossible to look like the foreign wine class brand to carry on great writer's conformity dissemination like this, in the marketing the tobacco brand needs at "the micro movie" Must dodge the risk, the discrete conduct, argues vigorously the risk falls lowly.

In brief, regarding "the micro Discount Cigarettes With Virginia Stamp" this kind is the advertisement, but the non-advertisement, is a movie but the non-movie, is situated between the advertisement and movie's new thing, tobacco brand Might as well may hold the point of view which studies to attempt Newports, can perhaps for the tobacco brand dissemination unexpected Newports Cigarettes Website.
