Scenes from The Week-End -- The Ranch



lovely cousin kristin

The Weekend trip to our cousin's ranch was a great success. There was a new (unexpected) calf, swimming, campfire s'mores, cooking, playing games and just general comradrie...

Between Bryan and his two cousins, there are eight kids (seven girls and one boy). Our girls are the youngest, and the rest range between twelve and twenty. These are some amazinginly excellent teenagers -- funny, interesting, kind... no petulance whatsover. They're all genuine, highly individual, confident and witty and a true pleasure to hang out with.

I took all sorts of parenting notes ;-)

Hope your weekend was delightful!
