Coburn Kids

I so wish I had brought the camera last night! We went up to Sue Halligan’s farm, an old nieghbor from my neighborhood growing up. It was about an hour drive out there but what a good turn out there was with 30-40 people. People I hadn’t had the chance to see in years. It’s so strange to see the little brother’s and sisters of neighbors you knew growing up.  You always have this permanent picture in your eye of them at 6 years old.

I was absolutely fascinated to see that chickens and kids go together like peanut butter and jelly.  I am now thoroughly convinced that every kid needs at least one chance in their childhood to chase some chickens around and terrify them. The girls had a blast though with all the other kids there, climbing in the corral, scaling fences, mooing with cows, scaling 20 foot tall haystacks!  Always a bit of a surprise to look wayyyy up and see a bunch of kids running around on mountains of haystacks, the proceeding heart attack isn’t as much fun though.

We had a great barbeque followed by s’mores over the firepit. We all had such a wonderful evening last night!
