Visit to Gran Pawpaw

We finally made it over to Crockett to visit "Bisabuelito". He has been sick with Lung Cancer for 5 years and just went through another round of Chemo and is doing very well. We are so grateful for that.

Caleb always loves going to visit and seeing the cows. Pawpaw lives on 90 acres and has around 80 head of cattle. There is always lots to do around the place, whether it be fixing fences, haying the field or doctoring the cows. None of these things are really my cup of tea, I did plenty of this growing up on THE PLACE in Montana. Now, I would probably qualify myself as more of a city girl, but Caleb is a country boy tried and true. He loves everything about going to visit his Gran Pawpaw. He loves that "Bisabuelito" wears a cowboy hat, cows “merrr” all around, he gets to ride in Papa’s Big Truck and finally, he can ride his JOHN DEERE Tractor.




He and Sissy had great fun going around and around, until she got dumped out on her head. So sad! We put her back in to try to help her remember how fun it was, but she was done and only wanted to be cuddled and held after this traumatic experience.



PawPaw chased Caleb around on the lawn mower, which really concerned Caleb. At one point I think he started crying. I don't think he has quite figured out the whole teasing thing, yet.

Sleep is always lacking when you are in a house with thin walls and lots of snoring, but besides almost being poisoned by leaking gas fumes, we had lots of fun.
