Hayrides, Smores and Lightening Bugs!

So we had the Leader's Academy Students over last night for Frog More Stew, a hayride and smores. It was a blast! The kids had a great time and it was a great use for our yard. The boys played football before the hayride. Mike was so proud of the yard. All the work he has put into it really paid off.

After dinner was over, Mike took the kids on a hayride and he made a huge bonefire and they didn't smores. Campbell loved all of that! Carson was unable to make the trip.

On the way back to the house, we stopped the hayride in the middle of the field and caught lightening bugs. They were everywhere! It looked like twinkle lights going off in over the grass. I got a mason jar from my shed and Mike poked holes in the top of it so we ran all over the field catching lightening bugs for Campbell's jar. The LA kids pitched in. It was amazing how many of them had never seen a lightening bug. Wow!

Over all, it was a great night. So American. I mean, eating food right off the table with no plates or silverware, football in the backyard, a hayride and smores and running through a pasture catching lightening bugs for a mason jar... You can't get any more American than that! God Bless the USA!
