Farm Country

Yesterday Aubrey & I went to Farm Country with our new friends Rachel & Zoey. It was such a cute little place. Perfect for our girls. It was also the perfect weather. The animals are so friendly they come right up to the gate when you walk over. We even got to pet the head of a peacock. It was sticking it's head out of the gate for us to pet it. Really cool.

First we saw the sheep & goats. The girls would put their hands on the fence and they would come right up and lick their hands. Aubrey would squeal with delight when they would lick her. I told her they were giving her kisses.

The girls also got a pony ride. They loved it!

Then we got a ride on a horse drawn wagon. I didn't know if Aubrey would be too interested, but she loved it. Whenever it would get bumpy she would bounce up and down.

We also got to feed some horses and llamas. They are so tame that even the girls could hold up the feed and they would eat it right out of their hands. You can see on Aubrey's face how excited she was!

Zoey giving Rachel a big squeeze - too cute!

Trying to get a pic of both girls by the cow proved to be a difficult task!

What a fun morning! We'll have to go again sometime.

I'm jealous we weren't the ones that got to go with you guys! I'm glad Aubrey loved it as much as Molly did.

Looks like fun! Kind of like the Bishops Pumpkin Patch we go to in Wheatland the first of October, it gets the kids really excited for Halloween.It would be really hard to have any 2 - 18 month old kids stand still for picutres...anytime!

Aubrey always seems right at home in all the photos with animals... perhaps that 'farm-blood' is genetic? Very cute!

Going to see animals is like the best field trip ever--at any age! Visiting the zoo or a farm is at the top of our kids favorite things to do. Aubrey looks like she had fun!
