After an hour delay in the Dells because of construction (only to find the workers were taking the barrels off the road), Joy only sleeping 20 minutes because of it, and some very rude drivers, we finally made it there late Friday afternoon. We enjoyed a visit from Joy's aunt and uncle, Christi and Bart Chapin, and their dogs on Friday evening. The first half of Saturday was spent on the farm and the second half was spent at a friend's 30th birthday party. There were lots of babies and older kids for Joy to play with. She was a busy and happy girl, as long as we didn't talk to any one person too long so she could keep playing. We came back on Sunday and Joy is taking a nice long nap this afternoon to make up for some of the lost sleep over the weekend. Here are some pics that capture our visit.
Aunt Christi, Grandma, and Joy were coloring together on Friday when Joy missed the paper by a long shot and got her forehead instead.
We got out the old little people and scrubbed them up for Joy. She has been on a huge kick over little people lately so she was really excited about this. She didn't want to wait until they were dry so she just sat on the counter and got busy. An hour later, we moved them to a bench so they were more her level and we could all sit down. :)
We went for a ride in Grandpa's truck out to see the Angus with 14 babies. Joy was nervous about the truck at first, but loved it and wanted to ride more the rest of the visit. She also loved the baby cows. We'll work on teaching her the different between calves, cows, steers, and bulls in the future. For now, they are all just baby and mama cows.
Here, Joy is jumping by herself because all the kids ran inside for cupcakes. But let me assure you, she wasn't too far behind them. This girl LOVES cupcakes!
