chickens and goats and pigs, oh my!

We paid a little visit to Hidden Villa this weekend.



We watched the goats and sheep.
(Sophie thought the sheep's loud bleat was VERY funny.)


We saw pigs.


We touched mossy trees.


We walked among the free range chickens and saw their nests.


We looked at the turkeys.


Riding Daddy is always a highlight...

A fun afternoon!

Daddy did his best to keep Sophie and her cousins entertained at the Loveday wedding last weekend.

everyone but Sophie screams for...

SJ's first foray into the Wonderful World of Frozen Decadence (a.k.a. ice cream) was wholly uneventful.

She was instead more enthralled by the ribbons hanging up outside.

We're hopeful that she will have a change of heart. Soon.

What's childhood without it?

At this point, I think Soph would argue for the ribbons...
