May 2012 Fun!
May has certainly been a fun time around the farm.
A group effort was made in sprucing up the flowerbeds and yards, and they are looking really nice! Carlee McCutcheon graduated kindergarten and will be starting first grade in the fall! Cade McCutcheon also celebrated his 12th birthday on May 22, and had a great time at the arcade with his friends. They are both excited to spend the summer riding horses with their mom, dad, and grandparents, Tim & Colleen.  
 
 
Congratulations to Cade and his baseball team for winning their tournament this past weekend! Way to go, guys!
