Deanna Rose Farmstead

Tuesday the weather was just perfect. Sunny, not too hot or humid, and it seemed just right for a trip to the Deanna Rose Farmstead. We hadn't been there this year at all, and so we went on an impromptu trip and had so much fun. We arrived around 10am and were actually there until after 2pm, which for us, was a long time. The boys enjoyed watching the bunnies chase each other, the ducks walk around, and so much more. Jacob & Nathaniel brushed a baby calf's hair, all three of them fed baby goats bottles of milk, they fed bigger goats some food, rode pedal tractors, and played on the playground. Leah really got her eyes full, too, by just watching everything going on. She didn't fuss about anything at all. It was so much fun. Nathaniel also went on a pony ride. The only problem with that was you have to be 3 to ride & of course Jacob wanted to, but was not old enough. Leyton thought maybe he'd ride next time. They actually wanted to go back the next day. We've been there several times before, but this time just seemed like they had so much fun. It is such a neat place & unbelievably, pretty much free. We didn't fish (mostly because I'm a wimp when it comes to worms, hooks, and handling fish) or ride the hay ride, but maybe next time. I was so glad we went.
