Because We Want To Remember... (with way too many pictures!)

Keith and his five brothers were raised on a farm in Lancaster County.  It is a lovely place and holds so many memories for the Martin family!  The plans are to sell the farm by auction next month.

On Saturday we were all together, knowing that the times for having family days at the "home place" are numbered. These are pictures from our day.  

The first several pictures we are all looking through some things that Mother wanted us to go through and take whatever we wanted. 

Curtis' "rock collection"...
An old skillet anyone?

Isn't this trunk amazing!?


Jasmine enjoys her watermelon!
We had a soft ice cream machine for the day.


Dodge ball!
The men visiting...

I had to include this one, as I walked up Casper told his cousin,
"She is going to take pictures of us for her blog!"

The oldest grandchild (now married) reading to her little cousins.
Grandma and Gabrielle.

  1. I really enjoyed these pictures! Its so lovely to see families enjoying one another, cousins doing what cousins enjoy best, etc. Plus, a soft serve machine is such a stellar idea! Where did they rent that from?
