After the Fact (Wedding Continued!)

Monday morning there were a lot more goodbyes, but they weren't quite as dramatic.

And there was a lot of silliness to be had beforehand! 

Anthony had left, but Justin made some kettle corn in the giant kettle. 

Starting to say goodbye to the Wyoming folks

All the barefeet people were staying. 

We even had a visit from Jade and Marilyn!

So much to say! 

Elsie loves her uncle Tyler! 

Silly girls! 

These kids had a blast together! 

Devin mopping his eyes with his hat--goofball! 

And Clover and Evan's church van headed out with a load heading west.

And then back inside for lunch and chatter.

Jade played us some tunes

I went through a LOT of pictures.

The kids got tractor time.

More food!

Farm and ranch talk

Bette Lu

Orianna zoned out with a book

Games

A gaggle of cousins on Aunt Livie

Monday night, Owen took the kids fishing in the rain.

They just went behind the house in the creek, so there were no amazing catches. But everyone caught something! 

Breanna Lynn

Pleased as punch Gilbert

Hoyt

Levi

Lily

Elsie

The next afternoon, Ron showed the kids a few tricks--the one of getting soot all over your face.

Trying to convince Lily to do one with him.

Kitchen objects

Oh boy! 

He even got Abilene to try one! 

A face full of flour

Then Bette Lu had to do the teabag rocket ship

It was a favorite with the kids! 

I stole this from Ashley's Instagram because it was better than my pictures! 

And then we went up to see the empty haymow.

All done. All gone. 

But it was a lovely time!
