Visiting Back East

Nate, Isaac and I made our yearly trip back east to Montgomery County to see my grandparents and other relatives. We were sure glad we could make the trip this year since my grandfather passed away about 8 days later.

Here is a picture of my Grammy and Pop-Pop Delp. This is one of the last known pictures of my grandfather and is now a very special one to me. Pop-Pop even played tractors with Isaac for a bit at lunch this day.

Isaac loved to play with my cousin, Matthew. Here he is playing outside with him with some trucks. Imagine that!
These two sure laughed a lot when they were together.
Isaac and Matthew even pretended to ride Grandpop's tractor that is stored in the garage at Grandmom's house. Of course, Isaac had to go and see the tractor every day we were there that weekend.

Show Week

One week during the summer, my sisters show their dairy cattle at Martinsburg. Isaac and I spent the week helping the girls. Isacc loved to be around the cows and play in the sawdust. He even got to show in the kiddie show with Aunt Danielle. Here he is with her in the next two pictures.


Isaac would pet the calves anytime he could.

Isaac's birthday was during this week so my parents had a small party for him at the show. He loved it when he opened his new tractor and hay rake from Grandma and Grandpa Delp!
Isaac had a blast helping put the sprinkles on his cake.
This is the picture of all of us at the show the night of Isaac's little party. It is not often that all of us are together so Mom just had to get a picture.
This is Danielle showing one of her heifers.
This is Donna showing one of her heifers. I got to show for Donna one day while she was at work.
