Fun at the Farm

Two years ago this picture was taken on our very first outing with Rachel and Zoe.



Two years and a day later here we are at the exact same place with Rachel and Zoe - but with the addition of Brooke and Clayson.

It's amazing that in the space of two years, things can change so much and yet still be very much the same.

We sure did have a fun time at the farm! Here Aubrey is petting the calf they brought out.


Brookie checking out the calf too.


Brooke loved all of the animals. As she moved from stall to stall she kept saying "more more". She couldn't believe how many animals there were.




Brooke LOVED feeding the animals,


as did Aubrey and Zoe.


Aubrey went for the slide the corn under the gate method. But not Brooke - she would just stick it right in their mouths.


Look at her cute little hand feeding the Llama,


and the goat.


The pony rides are a big favorite!




And so are the little play houses.




My darling little jail bird!


What cute friends they are! Even after spending a couple hours at the farm together, as soon as we came home, Aubrey asked if Zoe could come over and play.




Brooke being a gardener.


I love how Brooke has to be right in the action.




Aubrey having fun in the tunnel.






I ended up having an extra ticket so let Aubrey have another pony ride. I didn't think Brooke would even notice. I sure was wrong. The whole time Aubrey was riding Brooke kept saying, "more more." I felt really bad. I had her pet the pony afterwards and that appeased her.


A day at the farm just wears you out. This is how I found the girls as I was preparing dinner:




We sure do have fun hanging out with the Smith family! These 2 years have just flown by! We hope to have many more years hanging out with them!
