September 6, 2013 Tearing down the barn

Jeff had another project for Katie and me. He tore boards off the deteriorating milking barn, Katie took out the rusted nails and I stacked them up. What a team!

Katie still had time to goof off. She's been fascinated with the old silo since cousin Jared's visit a few years ago.

September 5, 2013 Nick's ATV crossing

Katie followed us on a trail ride over the hills, by the creek, through the corn fields and over the ATV crossing that Nick and Jeff made over Father's Day weekend.

September 5, 2013 The Luck of the Green

When Jeff started working on the tee box in early August, little did he know Katie would be the one to help him finish it. She surprised us with a impromptu trip home. Top on her list was a Covo overnight. With all three of us helping, the tee box was completed in a couple hours, not counting the time it took to uninstall it from our backyard the day before.
