Weekend in Old Monroe/Troy

Carter, Laura, and I drove across the state last weekend to visit family.  While we were at Mom's house on Saturday, we went to Aunt Catherine's house because they were cutting one of her tree's down.  Uncle John asked Carter if he wanted a tractor ride to move the wagon closer, and he was all over it.  A year ago he probably wouldn't have ridden with him, but he has grown up in the last year!!

Then on Sunday we visited the Bartigs and had a birthday celebration for Laura.  Emily rode to Kearney with us to spend the week with the Burkempers, so she got to celebrate also.  Happy 17th Birthday, Laura!
