Fun At the Ranch Or Better Known as Heaven On Earth!

Little deer, I don't really like feeding you...says Mia
Can you tell by the look on my face, that I don't like this. TAKE ME HOME!!!
Dad shows Mia how not to be afraid.
Powell thinkg it's a lot of fun!

Spring Valley...one of our favorite places to visit and carve our names in the trees.

Mia, Tanner and Parker watching someone, but not sure who.
Grandpa, Ryler and Powell are having fun building a fire.
So much for peace and quiet...here comes the BOYS!Gemma and Mia having fun on the old trailer.

Gemma, Tanner, Powell, Mia and Hallie having some bubbly fun.
Bubbles, bubbles everywhere.
Grandpa and Mia enjoying some time together on the side porch.
Parker was running down the hill and face planted into the dirt and rocks.
At least he had his blanky to protect him!
Hallie having fun on our hike into the meadow to see the horses. She picked flowers for her mom all along the way.
Jeff and Heidi having fun together. We are always thankful when brothers and sisters get along. Sometimes we think they have a little too much fun.
Emily giving us a cute pose on a post
in the meadow. Mason is really into painting his little animal. We bought some crafts for the kids to do and they loved it!
Tanner, Mason, Powell, Parker, Abby, Amy, Mia, Hallie and Gemma are having a ball painting crafts in the garage, because it was raining.
Cute pose of our little artists.
Rob, Gemma, Abby and Hallie having fun on the porch.
The kids had fun going on a hike with Emily and her friend. Here they are resting after their long hike up the mountian.
The kids are coming down the mountain from their hike. They always have so much fun at the ranch. There are places to play everywhere. It's like the ranch is it's own little world. Boy do we love it there.
Ryler gives us a big smile while sitting in the old high chair that I helped Grandma Brinton recover more than 30 years ago. We still love using it at the ranch. It's amazing how much we love nastolgic things at the ranch. We are so thankful for so many things that Grandpa and Grandma Randall left for us to enjoy. The ranch isn't fancy, but it's full of love!
Gemma having fun eating melted marshmallows.
Mason and Parker walk up the side of the ranch house. Grandpa Randall left old baseball hats on the hooks in the kitchen that are there for anyone to wear. Parker loved those hats and always had one on, even though they were way too big for his head.
Heidi and Mia having fun at Spring Valley
Heidi found at snake at Spring Valley and thought it was so cute.
Powell is racing Heidi back to the car, while she is carrying Mia.
Jeff and Heidi have some brotherly/sister fun together.
Look at the wild animals in the cage....aka, the kids in the car ready to leave Spring Valley after carving our names and years in the trees.
A cute picture of Heidi and Mia by the horse tank in Spring Valley. This has to be one of the prettiest places on earth.
