It was really obvious that we were "city folks".
These 2 were so excited to see farm animals.
We fed them,
{quick due to nasty farm flies & busy kiddos}
After lunch, we went on a HAY RIDE around the farm.
(We did this all 2 years ago... but I'm not sure the kids remembered that.)
After the ride, Ellie & Noah loved talking to all the cows.
If the kids would see a cow that had its heads stuck out to eat, they would run up & the cows would back up and just stare at them.
Were they afraid of the kids or the balloon?THEN we found some friendly cows that let the kids pet them.....
and even feed them.
Noah and Ellie kept asking the cows things like:
"Hey, are you the grandpa cow?"
And then Noah thought it would be COW TALK to say to them:
"Hey COWaBUNGa!"
On our way to the car we said hello (and goodbye) to these cute calfs.This one was barely a day old.
Crystal told us about something fun for kids in downtown Mesa that was later on that night.
She wanted her face painted with a rainbow... so he let her.
We walked up & down Main Street.
We ran in to this PIG....
Could this have been the same PIG STATUE that potty trained Elle before she was 2? Seriously, I think it was. Look at these celebrities we ran into? (Cousin Calee with some of her girl cousins!)
We did finally meet up with Crystal. (who told all of us about it)
Auburn took us in her new ride to dinner. And we made sure to play it's theme song: We enjoyed lots of freeness at Paradise Bakery & then Ocean Blue.
(P.S.- OB has a new yummy flavor- BANANA.)
When I got home, these 2 partiers were already asleep & I couldn't resist taking a picture of how close Ellie had to be to her prince charming!
Sometimes it is the most simple things that make me stop & realize how lucky I am.
