a neigh and a moo and a cockadoodledoo

Today we took all the cousins...well, the ones not in school.... and hit the farm at Thanksgiving Point. Everyone was old enough to love it (for the first time ever!). We saw lots of baby goats, chickens, horses, ducks, roosters, peacocks, donkeys, cows...all the usual farm animals. Papa bought dried corn from the little vending machine and the kids could not have been more entertained.

Jace feeding the goats....finally brave enough. Last year he just threw the corn at the goats!

Lady was worried that the goats would bite her fingers, but when she finally had the courage she said "Hey mom! They just licked my fingers and it tickled!"

Even Trey got in on some feeding of goats action!



Of course, we took a break from feeding so the kids could ride the horses. Lady even rode with "no hands mom!" which wasn't exactly the safest way to ride, but she was sure proud.





At the end of the day, I took these last three pictures of my kids and Ty. I'm still learning with this new camera, but I have to admit, these turned out darling! Great end to a very fun day!
