Wheeler Farm 2009





Kristi, Matt, and I braved the summer "heat" (ha ha ha) and took the kids to Wheeler Farm. We started off with B's favorite: the horses. She named them Yellowy and Browny. The kids are really fun now that they are older and more confident. They all fed the horses some grass, well, Hunter was so worried that the little ones were going to feed the horse a finger he could not participate and had to "look away". Harley, however, wanted to feed the horse our lunch so we quickly moved on before she could plant the idea in the younger kids heads!
The geese and ducks were out in full force, demanding to be heard and fed. Hunter of course wanted to take a duck home, "I will name him Oregon and take care of him, Please Mom!" One look from me told him there was no way he was keeping a duck at our house! Hamster ok, fish ok, dog ok, duck NO WAY! So we sadly walked away from 'Oregon the Duck' and saw the milking of the cow, which no one asked to take home!! A was so cute we had to stop and take a few pics. I was really wishing Kristi could have a baby that was not so smiley...then I remembered L and smiled! Of course, B wanted in on some of the action. And what is better than a picture with your older cousin? That is the best part about being the oldest cousin...everyone adores you!! (Of course I am speaking from personal experience ;))




Then we fed the ducks, geese, swans, seagulls, and L...she decided that the bread was too good to waste and took a few bites! Once the bread was gone, it was our turn to eat. Lunch was good, but climbing trees and chasing each other is much more fun!
