Madelyn and Jack spent a long weekend on the farm. Ryan met his parents on Friday morning and the kids went to the farm by themselves for a couple days. Then Ryan and I went down to Iowa on Sunday as Ryan's fantasy football draft is on Sunday evening. It was the perfect long weekend…..the kids had a great time on the farm (they always do!) and Ryan and I had a great time at home getting things done and seeing friends.
On Sunday morning, on our way to the farm, we stopped in Owatonna to see my Grandma. She has been failing but recently she was not eating or getting out of bed. She was in bed and wouldn't even roll over to see us. She talked to us and understood what we were saying but she just laid on her side, facing the wall. My mom said she did end up getting out of bed and eating later in the day but it sounds like she is most content when she is in bed. It is hard to see her in this state as this isn't the Grandma I knew but thankfully she is in good hands and is still plugging away!
The kids were so excited to see us and Madelyn told us everything they had done on the farm! It's always so fun because they are surrounded by things that they don't see everyday. Madelyn rode in the tractor with Grandpa. She has been scared in the past but this time she was brave enough to get in! Jack didn't get in the tractor this time but one of his new favorite words is "tractor".
We came back home on Monday and enjoyed our day at home. It was a great weekend for everyone!
