Ferris Mt trip

Ferris Mt. Ranch









This was the cabin we stayed in. It was one of the original buildings the original homesteaders built. This used to be a tack shed and when the owner (now) decided he was ready to move out of his parents house, he rechinked all of the logs and added a loft. My brother in law Chris helped add on the new addition and they made it out of straw bails. It is a cute, old little cabin.




We had a great trip up. We went and saw our friend Brandon Fitch and his cute little family. I really hit it off with his wife and we got to watch his son Tucker kick some butt at middle school football. Good start to the weekend. Thank God for laptops with DVD players. The new Monsters vs. Aliens movie came out and as you can tell the kids were enjoying that.

Next post I will put up the pictures of the inside of the cabin we stayed in. Chris and Gary (the owner) designed a beautiful fireplace using all the different rock formations on the ranch. It was awesome to get to help with the last part of the project. They collected all the rocks, labeled them, put them in order from oldest to youngest (or vice versa, I'm not sure) and then the installation began!! I can't wait to show you but Chad's camera is in his truck so I will do it on the next post.
Something funny happened today at school. I was reading together with a couple of boys in second grade and reading about the "Grumpy Bears". They could not split a piece of cheese evenly so they had a fox help them. Anyway, in one of the parts, it talks about how the fox divided the cheese and divided the cheese....and then one of the boys piped up, "After all that cheese I bet she will have to CUT THE CHEESE!" Hahahahahaha, I'm so mature that I did not laugh. Ya right!!! I laughed so hard because he got like crazy little grin and was smiling from ear to ear and was very pleased with his joke. I guess you had to have been there and heard the story several times to appreciate the joke. Love you all and hope you enjoyed the post!!
