Labor Day Fun

On the Sunday of Labor Day weekend, we went out to Kevin's parents house for a yummy Labor Day dinner. After dinner, a surprise guest arrived at the front window. It was Chief the 31 year old horse. Zachary and Elliott were so excited. Papa Marv got Chief all fixed up to see the boys and he even put his saddle on him. Chief gave horsey rides all around the front yard. While we were taking lots of photos, Karen said that Chief has given rides to Jeff (Kev's brother), Kevin, Jeff's girls, and now Kevin's son & nephew. Yes, this horse is older than Kevin. You could see the twinkle in Chief's eye when he was walking around with the boys. He was back in his prime. After the horse rides we then got out the 4 wheeler and John Deere tractors to take rides on them. Then Zachary & Elliott wanted to "scoop" the dirt and feed the dogs. Meanwhile the moms went inside to bathe the boys while the dads got out their bows to shoot at the targets. After all activities with Papa Marv's "toys". We all went inside to eat MaMa's Home Made Banana Ice Cream and brownies. It was a perfect day of fun and family.
