On our way back from the ocean we stopped at our friend's new house/farm. They have 7 acres along with a small orchard, gardens, and a few animals. So, not a full fledged farm, but closer than my kids have ever been.
Tate was in heaven. He walked right up to goats and chickens and thought it was the coolest thing ever.
My friend even let him collect eggs with her!
He only broke one :)
But look at that smile
We went to feed the chickens and Gracie was a little nervous. She had to have all of her "girls" and blankets with her from the car to go in the little barn.
Eventually she got down and she and Tater loved throwing the chicken feed around.
We got to play in their vegetable garden and pick fresh strawberries. This was Sean's favorite part since he is Mr. Organic lately. We got to take home eggs, lettuce, and other goodies. Now he is dreaming up ways to build us a garden by the shed.
I'm so thankful to have friends who can expose my kids to new things. Even if it means days on end of talking about goats and chickens when we get home ;)
