Trip to Springfield

We had a lovely time recently out in Springfield. A very special family invited us for a visit. We enjoyed one another's company tremendously, praying and reading God's word together. We hope to go out for a visit again soon!

The family drives a horse and buggy, no cars

Our girls enjoyed a fun time with their daughter

The son offered to take everyone on a ride on his ox cart

thsee oxen are so well trained that this young man can lay on the cart with his eyes closed and his team will take him home after a long day in the field

 

So we felt pretty comfortable letting him take the kids on a ride. Grace whined because she just knew that they would all end up in the ditch..

 

So to keep Gracie happy they cut the drive short and headed back to the house (seen in the distance) It was a fruitful day, full of fellowship and encouragement. What a blessing/
