Sunday filled with family and fun. One of them main reasons for having a homestead , for us, was to have family get togethers on the weekend. This has been one of those weekends. A son called to say he and his family wanted to come over. We were also celebrating the St John the Baptist's Birthday. We got the food ready.
Menu:
Celery snacks
Grapes
Cucumber and onion vinegar salad
Roast tomato and broccoli with oil and balsamic
Green beans
Roasted Lamb
Surprise Cake
I baked a chocolate cake. Hollowed out the middle with a drinking glass. Frosted each layer as I would a regular layered cake.
Filled the middle with strawberries, chocolate chips and walnuts. Topped with sprinkles.
Horses were worked in the round pen. Their buddies, the lambs, watching closing by.
Hugs all around.
Guinea is still on her eggs.
Baby turkeys are in their new homes... I need to get some bedding.
Then craft time while we waited for the lamb to finish cooking. Birdhouse painting. ...and lots of laughter!
The storms did come. We got a nice rain but farther to the north and south of us got pounding hail.
We played old fashion games and went for walks.
Father and son always have a great time.
Then it was time to head home.
So until next time...Smile!
peace
