Family Fun - Amish Style


My family and I had the privilege of being invited to one of my sister's friends' home for dinner. It was AMAZINGLY yummy! The food, fellowship and FUN we had will be a night we'll always cherish! Our son asked our host AND hostess different times if we could come back for Thanksgiving dinner! He also asked if he could move in! Has it really been that long since my family had a good home cooked meal?!!?

Inside the eldest son's supped up buggie!



The kiddos enjoyed checking out the inside of the buggie.

Behind my niece was a curtain separating the seating area from the HUGE speakers in the buggie! Apparently, the speakers get hooked up to the son's iPod! A new generation of Amish!




Too cute climbing

My one nephew found some peanuts and made his own makeshift basketball game with the peanuts and a birdbath!


Getting his ammo ready!


Are you looking at me?


The kiddos playing around


I think my nephew would be okay with having this for his first vehicle!


Too cool for words



Posing in front of the buggie!




Hiding from the ball in "ball tag"
My three nieces played a trick on us. As the parents talked and the younger kiddos played outside, we noticed that the daughter of the house had not only one friend over after dinner, but 3 more! We hadn't even seen their buggy pull up! The girls were all busy drying the dishes, but then they turned around....

My nieces going Amish!

They really fit the part! My great grandparents would be proud!
