On the farm!
After coming to the the U.S. from Scotland, my great-great grandfather built a farm in Dane, Wisconsin (located about 25 miles north of Madison) in 1856. My grandfather grew up there, as did my mom, and the farm is still in our family — but, amazingly, the girls had never been before last week!
My uncle hosted a family reunion during our visit, and I was so excited to show the girls the farm and introduce them to some aunts, uncles and cousins they had never before met. And watching them ride on tractors and run around the grass where my sister, cousins and I ran around as children was beyond special…
