Labor Day Weekend

We had a great Holiday weekend and the weather was great too. On Saturday we went over towards Cambridge City to tour the Huddleston Farm Museum. In the 1800's John Huddleston and his family took advantage of the National Road (now U.S. 40) traffic and started an Inn/Tavern. The farmhouse was built specifically for this business and he was not only an entrepreneur in this but in farming as well. They had 12 children and other family members who had moved from North Carolina to help with the farm and business. We left there and tried to see the Farmers Pike Festival, that is east of New Castle (just follow the garage sales on St Rd 38). All of the traffic caused us to detour and head back home. I want to see the birthplace of Wilbur Wright which is just north of there, maybe next time.




Chris and the girls took advantage of the weather and went fishing down the road, as you can see Tressa caught the first fish!


Kennedy spent the night with Grandma and Papa on Saturday which she loves to do! It is a new adventure to play with Grandma's toys, help with the chickens and playing with Oscar and Snowy. Aunt Julie arrived from Colorado on Monday, we are glad to have her home and wish her the best as she prepares for this new adventure.
