It’s the annual Kuehner Fun Day today and the weather looks like it’s going to be great! There was a chance of showers later so I’m just hoping that it holds out for our party.
And how did the day go? Well it went very well even if I say so myself !
The kids were all running around the yard either playing on the trampoline or in the house by the kitchen table making posters to hand out to the Aunts & Uncles. Some of the kids were playing basketball and there was another group playing bags.
And there was even some just chillin’
The weather did turn pretty wet for awhile but then we all moved into the Roadhouse and had some good laughs with the ‘inside’ games!
And the part of the day that I seem to like the most is when the whole farm comes alive with kids running, someone is usually half sleeping on the hammock under the trees, and there’s a group of people sitting on the porch. It’s just really a nice day!
We have this annual get together because on Daryl’s side we don’t get together at Christmas anymore and if you’re a family both Daryl and I think you should get together at least once a year (or more!) to check in with each other and to make sure that the nephews and nieces grow up knowing each other too. And to have it on our farm means that they will always know that this is where Grandma & Grandpa started the family.
So as the wagon pulls back into the yard from the hay ride through the country roads and town and with our bellies full once again from eating, we all settle in with blankets and sit by the fire to watch the fireworks display that William puts on. And honestly I think it was one of THE best displays yet this year!
With the kids all getting tired and ready for bed, and a quick cleaning of the Roadhouse, we all call it a day.
But before I can fall asleep tonight, I can still see Daryl standing kind of on the side of everyone else in the yard with a small smile on his face just enjoying the whole scenery!
So here’s to another successful Kuehner Fun Day!!
A couple more pictures from the day….

We stopped off at the new trail in town to check it out!

And what party is complete without having an egg toss?
