Farm Visit

Last Friday, we visited our friends' farm. Mama A. had tried to take Henry and his cousins to the farm a few weeks earlier but it didn't work out. Cousin Megan (Mimi) was sick but cousin Lauren (also Mimi) came, too. From the moment we arrived, all Henry wanted to see was the chickens! Our friends have a St. Bernard named Puddles, who greeted us right away. I am not kidding - Puddles' head was the size of Henry's upper body and was definitely taller than Henry! It was a pretty windy day, but the kids had a great time.


It rained about an hour before we left for the farm so we got out the umbrella...thankfully, it stopped raining.


We started with visiting the newborn lambs. This one was born during the night.


After the lambs, we headed to visit the goats and kids, calves, sheep and llamas. We tried to get a picture of Henry with a llama who has a crazy under bite...but Henry was a little wary of them.


Finally, on to the chicken coop. Boy, was he happy to go in the chicken coop. He also liked the peacock. Mama, Lauren and Henry even collected some fresh eggs for us take home.
