As has become our tradition, we are spending our New Year's weekend with the Lawsons. We go back a LONG way... all the way back to the Livestock Poultry Building at UGA. We usually include the Tomlinsons too but sadly this year will be the first time in like a DECADE that we haven't rung in the new year with them. They'll be here tomorrow though.
The weather has just been beautiful over the last couple of days. The first order of business today was to get the eggs and go see the horses.
These two scaled the farm gate so quickly I couldn't get a good shot of them!
After getting the eggs, they hung on the fence and watched Peaches, Simmone and Treasure graze around the arena. When I looked back at last year's New Year's Eve pictures, it's amazing how much these kids have grown.
No day on the farm is complete without a little hay bale jumping. Ali Grace gave good instructions to the newest bale jumper.
Nanny came out to see the horses and the children. She brought Ali Grace her very favorite thing ever- FAT BACK. She wanted to play with Hailey on the hay bales and said "hey- hold my fat back!"
We made our annual pilgrimage down to Hill's Mill. Molly and Addie held hands all the way down the road.
Here's this year's picture of the Old Mill:
It was a perfect night to sit around a fire barrel with friends!
I love New Year's! Christmas is for families but New Year's is a perfect time to celebrate the gift of good friends!
HAPPY 2012 from our herd of friends to yours!
