Farm School Fun, by Aubree

Our first adventure in farm school is.......
Swimming! About two minutes after I got to the Frank's house I went swimming at the pond (my mom doesn't have pictures of it).
That night Shaina came over and she (with Ashlee's help of course) curled my hair along with Maggie's, Jaylen's, and Gracee's hair.
The next day I went to church in Jaylen's ward. Shaina gave a talk so Megan got to come to Jaylen's ward with us. It was fun having both Megan and Jaylen in my class.
That afternoon, we did a lot of cooking.  It was really fun because all the girls did it.
Us making M&M bars
Monday, we picked peaches in the same place as last year.  They tasted delicious, just like last year.
After picking peaches, we went swimming at Grandma K's indoor pool.  I had never been there before, so it was extra fun.
Then, early in the morning the next day we made mud pies.  We made a humongous mud puddle and tried to make a humongous mud cake, but it didn't turn out too well.
Right before it was time leave to go back home, Maggie and I picked potatoes.  We found the jack-pot. We pulled up a potato plant and started digging and found tons of huge potatoes.  I cleaned them off and got to take them home for my mom.
Farm School was super awesome and fun and I can't wait to do it again next year.  
*Note from Erin... due to logistics of pick-up/drop-off, Aubree got to spend an extra long time at Farm School (5 days, 4 nights).  Towards the end of this time I spoke to her on the phone and had the following conversation...
Me: "You've been gone a really long time, have you missed us at all?"
Aubree:  "Well, I would miss you, except I've been so busy and having so much fun, that I really haven't had a chance."
That about sums it up. Thanks to the Franks for making her experiences unforgettable!
