Cousin Bonding Time

This last weekend I had the opportunity to go home with Andy and see him race Saturday night. We had a very eventful weekend. It all started with his car overheating on the way home. We ended up waiting in Osseo for almost 2 hours til Uncle Scott came and picked us up. Then that night we went to the races. I had so much fun watching the races and just hanging out in the pits with Andy, Uncle Scott, and Aunt Gina.

Ok, funny story:

On Sunday, Uncle Scott spoke in Rice Lake and for lunch, they came to my house. After lunch, Andy and I decided to go on a ride on the mule. We went all the way back around the field on the back 40 and then back up to the woodshed. We walked around by the barn and then we were going to go on another ride. Well, we went to start the mule and it wouldn't even turn over. So Andy pushed it over to the big shed and we put more gas in it. It still wouldn't start. Then Andy looked down under the shifter and said "Umm, where does the battery go in this thing?" I had no idea, but it sure looked like we were missing something. After a while, I went and got Dad and sure enough, we had lost the battery somewhere on our ride. So Dad and Andy jumped it and went and found the battery. It was all the way out on the farthest part of our field. Shortly after they got back Andy, Aunt Gina, and Uncle Scott took Irma and headed home.

This is one of the many memories that will not be quickly forgotten. I had a ton of fun hanging out with you Andy! Love you!
