Potluck at Rhonda's

Mark and I arrived at the farm just before Beth and her husband got there. Grace was taken over to Raven to show them how she says "NO" then loaded up. We drove over to mom's to clean up before heading over to Spark and Rhonda's for potluck, just didn't want to show up without clean hands. It was such a nice cool evening, very enjoyable visiting with good friends before dinner then sitting down to break much more than bread although bread was on the menu. Rhonda had prepared a chicken dish that was delicious. Marilyn Bauer supplied gourmet carrots cooked in a very tasty orange sauce. Mom brought a very colorful tasty jello. The brown rice with a mushroom topping was the perfect compliment to the chicken, along with the cole slaw and the 2 kinds of home baked bread with butter.

It was hard to save room for dessert but we did. That was a very fluffy raspberry dish on top of angel food cake served with heavy whipped whipping cream and 2 fresh raspberries on top, hmmm delicious!
Tara and Jay along with their 3 girls showed up just as we were finishing up. Of course mom had to hold baby Jane.
Jane is such a content baby.
After dinner we took a short tour of the farm to show off the babies with 4 legs then said our farewells and took off for home. We are leaving at 6:00am for the Amish auction in Arthur, IL to look for a pony for Addyson and I'm tired.
