"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Wheeler Farm with the Maughans

This has become a tradition with them every year.  It was fun to show the place to Molly- I doubt she remembered much from when she was less than a year :).  Jack was surprisingly very unimpressed with most of the animals and begged to go home 80% of the time.  That was a bummer, but I think he enjoyed the playground at the end.  Erika and Kate walked around together (even though Emily and I were there- shocker!).  She was fun with Molly too, enjoying her enjoying things :).  I love it when the kids get all excited FOR each other about stuff that they don't really care about but know that the other person is experiencing it in a different light.  Makes me happy.  Noah ran around with Josh and really got into the whole thing.  Very easily pleased.  Luke surprisingly seemed to have a good time!  He wasn't all that excited about the farm idea, so I was glad he made the most of it.  He loved the playground at the end of course.  Bradley too- just ran around having a good time.  And climbed up in top of the playground thing, spying on everyone down below.  I think he's starting to feel like a big kid and is deciding to just have  fun doing the little kid stuff even though it's kind of lost its thrill.  He was in a really good mood though and was very pleasant to be with!  I was happy about how much fun he was having.  Kelly was the same.  Just in a good mood!  I loved it.  She was super helpful with the little kids, had fun naming the horses with them, and played with them on the playground a little mixed in with listening to the adults talk.  Charity was amazing with Molly as well.  She was her little buddy almost the entire time through the farm.  It was fun to watch those two bond.  I get so excited to think of the relationship that is forming, but then I get sad realizing that Molly may not remember most of it.  We will have to do something about that :).  She enjoyed talking with Emily and me as well.  It's always fun to hang out with Emily.  I lose track of time so easily.  Got sunburned, but this was probably a major highlight to Spring Break :).  We got home and crashed.

Jack was in a very pose and take pictures mood.  He posed on EVERYTHING!  I couldn't help but give in and take them all :).  I only posted a small portion :).
