You start off in a building filled with exhibits. Payden decided that the floor was scary (she randomly decides things are scary and then absolutely FREAKS OUT about them) and refused to walk anywhere without either being held or having her hand on the stroller. We headed over to this cow, and you can see on her face that there was no way she was going to let go of the stroller to walk so FAR AWAY in order to join her sisters.
Her fear of the floor definitely won out over her desire to be with her sisters. Crazy girl! This is the same thing that she did when we took her bowling.
This touchscreen interactive computer did entice her to leave our side.
Since we like museums, we enjoyed these exhibits and learning about farming and whatnot.
I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure she had to walk on the floor without touching someone or the stroller, which resulted in these tears. Oh, funny, funny, funny!
We finally finished inside and headed out. There were lots of pens filled with animals, mostly goats.
We found this adorable baby goat. He was SOOOO little!!!
You can buy feed to feed the animals, and this big guy was definitely expecting some food from us.
It's fun seeing the different variety of chickens, especially because I grew up thinking they looked a certain way and were all similar.
We finally found the feed to buy. The girls LOVE animals, so they were super excited to be able to feed them.
This guy just looked awesome.
We quickly finished our feed and continued looking around.
Tom just had to get a picture of the girls with a cow holding a lawn mower.
Of course Declan couldn't be left out . . .
After seeing plenty of goats, llamas, and birds, we finally made it over to the horses. I LOVE the sign on the fence.
By the time I finally got Payden brave enough to go touch this white horse, it walked away.
As we walked around there was even this pond with this turtle in it. A bit random, but hey we like animals, so it's all good.
The last of the animals we got to see were the pigs. I love these shots of the girls. Such cuties!
Next we came around to this little play town area. The girls had fun going in and out of all the buildings.
We tried to get them to take a good shot in the jail, but only Shelby fully cooperated.
Taylor of course was being a tease, but we finally got her inside.
As part of your admissions, you get the choice to either go on a wagon ride or ride on a horse. That was a no-brainer for the girls. They were ecstatic to be able to ride on a horse. I was a bit worried about Payden, but I put her up there and she did awesome.
Taylor kept leaning over to pat the horse, which made me worry she'd fall off.
In the end, no one fell off and they were so excited about their ride. They named the horses and everything (of course I've forgotten the names) and kept on trying to figure out whose horse was biggest.
Unfortunately by this time we were ready to go home and the rest of the family hadn't shown up yet, so they ended up going bowling instead. It was a fun morning and at $3.50 a person it was worth the fun we had, especially the horse ride. We'll definitely have to go back again sometime.
