Friday morning, Kate and I met some of my teacher friends and their kiddos at Purina Farms. It's only about 15 minutes away, and Kate and I had never been. We packed a lunch and got there early around 9:30. The weather was just gorgeous!!
Here are the girls getting ready to go in.
Then, the boys joined them.
Seriously, aren't they all so cute standing there holding hands????
Poor Kate kept falling in her tennis shoes. She is so used to sandals that she walked funny the whole time she wore her little Nikes.
Luckily, I brought her sandals along and changed her shoes pretty close to the beginning of the trip. She was looking a little silly falling over nothing!
The kids got to look at sheep.
They got to play in hay, crawl through tunnels, drive toy tractors through corn, and ride on little tractor bikes.
They got to pet pigs. One of the pigs had a yucky "behind" and Kate hasn't stopped talking about it every time pigs get mentioned.
Here's Kate with a goose and one of the worker's hands. She was telling her why it's NOT a good idea to squeeze its beak. You would think it was the little guy next to her that tried that trick, but, nope... it was Kate! :)
Then, we ventured to the dog show, where we saw dogs do lots of tricks including jumping into a dog pool to chase a frisbee. The kids LOVED that one!!
After that, it was a picnic lunch and time to let the kids run a bit.
We finished our trip off with a tractor ride around the farm.
They were all exhausted!!
The kids played peek-a-boo around a tree while the Mamas packed the cars.
And, like any good trip, it ended like this.
I REALLY need to tighten that strap!!
The day was a job well done, Mamas!!
