To the South 47 Farm we Go!!

We had a ton of fun Today. Makayla had a Field trip and Hana was able to come along. We went to a Farm called the South 47! ( Ok.....I wish I could tell you why it was named that...but I have no clue.) I was certain it would rain on us...it rained all morning...We wore jackets and boots and I packed an umbrella...but we didn't feel a single drop!!!



Here are the girls looking for worms and worm eggs! Did you know that 8 baby worms hatch from one worm egg...and if you cut a worm in half you don't have two worms. You have a dead worm!




Hana would have hung out with that chicken all day. While all the other kids ran from animal to animal...Hana hung out with the chicken. Forget a puppy! I'll have to build us a chicken coop!


Here you can see Mak's long blond main....very similar to the ponies look! This pony reminds me of a little Shetland we use to have when I was little! Georgia!!! Probably the first "horse" I ever rode! So it was fun to go down memory lane.......Moving on!

This little guy was so funny....He sounded like a big burp when he bleated! I feel kinda bad for him...he didn't get quite as much attention as the horse and the chicken :( Poor Fella.

We headed toward the piggy maze. I thought that mean there were pigs in it...but it only meant that it was decorated with pigs. Imagine my disappointment.


I'd like to point out Teddy is in every shot! Also, the big black cloud overhead that we escaped!

Too Bright!!! Mak picked a pumpkin.....more like a baby little pumpkin.

Hana too!! I wish she would let me do her hair!

A sweet moment! Mak and Hana playing in a mud puddle right before they both got silly...and fell in it. both covering themselves and Teddy in mud. Every article of clothing you see in this picture + Teddy = Washer!!!
What a great day! I love the pumpkin patch. And as I write this blog...listening to the rain and wind outside....I'm soooooo seriously thankful that we had a perfect Patch experience!

okay, first....Georgia was so much more lovely-in an old lady, who drank the last of my scotch! way. The picture w/ all the kids is so cute! not the typical group photo and the picture of Hana w/ her hair in her face instantly reminded me of the little sister on Little House on the Prairie.

I guess you guys need to get a chicken! I can see a chicken coop in your backyard...and you would always have fresh eggs! FYI..I tried to click on the video but it didn't work. Looks like you guys had a great time. I can't wait to go to a pumpkin patch without a baby!

I gleam so much wisdom from you lady! "A worm cut in half, is a dead worm." Brilliant!

I'm so glad that you had such a perfect (until the get all muddy part) day at the Pumpkin Patch! There's nothing like an Autumn Day with the cold air, warm sun, pumpkins and kids!
Miss you,
