Amys Farm


The other day some of my mommy friends took a little outing with the kids to Amy's Farm. We all had a wonderful time. It started to rain off an on but we didn't let that stop us from having a great time. She started off the tour with letting the kids pick vegetables out of the veggie garden. Then we got to go into the goat/ sheep petting area. They had a couple of newly born goats (only a couple of days old). Then they fed the goats the veggies they picked. Amy then brought out the little chicks for the kids to hold. They also had little piggy's, roosters, turkeys, ducks, geese, and kitties wondering around. The coolest part was probably when the kids got to feed the baby cows big bottles of milk. After that they got to see a huge cow and a couple of horses. Lastly they got to get on the big tractor and pretend they were driving it. Overall it was a really fun day for the kids and us mommies too. We're going to try to set up more of these play days for us stay at home moms because we need to get out and be with other great mom friends.

Here are some pictures:

What a fun day! I bet it was total chaos with all those kiddos (not to mention the animals) running around! It looks like you fared better than Jens since you walked away "goat-poop-free"!
