 We had great company with the Rutherfords here for an extended visit for two months.  We got to do lots of family and cousin things.  It will be a time to remember always!

                                                                                    A fun Fourth of July parade.

                      We did a lot of swimming at Aunt Carol's pool with family.

                      We had a fun time with Christmas in July!  The grandchildren got Christmas pajamas and a small present.  Cassi and Dave hosted it!  July 12, 2020

We ended our time together by having each grown-up read part of Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree.

Then we had family time at the pasture on August 2, 2020, with fishing, playing, and a meal.

                             Uncle Charles took the nieces and nephew for rides in the trailer! 

                                                           It was almost like a train ride.

Rutherford Summer Pasture Pics - 2020

 This summer has been an unusual one for us with Covid-19 ravaging it's way through our city and a very extended unemployment period. It led us to Kansas where we got to visit with almost all of you and truly enjoyed our extra time spent there. Notably, we used the pasture a significant amount as we started our trip with a two week quarantine there in June and bookended it with a 3 day stay with Mom and Dad. 

We are a very lucky family to have this quiet space in nature to go to. If you ever wonder if there is a space for you to get away, you need look no further than our family pasture. So, in that vein, while there are lots of pictures to be shared, these are all from our time at the pasture this summer:

Summer at the Givans has been fairly uneventful.  Sure enjoyed seeing many of you -family is always a favorite.

He obviously wanted to make sure he got his candle blown out!

We (and the dogs) have been enjoying the backyard animals.
