A week ago, we went for the first time to a heritage farm that is close to our home. The kids have seen all of these animals from far away but have never had to the chance to touch or be this close to anything but their Grandma and Grandpa K's horse. We went my my Aunt who took her children to it years ago and wanted a reason to revisit it. It has farm animals to see, as well as animals that were indigenous to the state before settlers. They have a one room school house and a general store. The farm is free to visit Monday-Thursday and only $2 on the weekend. We partook in some small activities like feeding baby goats and fishing in the pond and playing on the playgrounds. It was a fun day. Super hot outside for April 2nd hence the tank top for the wee one.

Yes, they are "milking the cow" though only water is coming out of it. Hayden had no reservations giving those udders a milking. |

I think he thought it was acting like a little dog. He sat down right there with it. He's my little Dr. Doolittle. Has a big heart for animals. |

He keeps telling me that one day when he gets older, he'll be able to pick up one of those baby goats. He was giving it his best shot. |
