Day at a Different Farm

Saturday morning we went to Carol Duerksen and Maynard Knepp's farm for the annual Day On the Farm full-of-fun-fest.

Hey there, mama pig.

I took a buggy ride with the boys.

It made me wonder about a simpler way of life.

Levi climbed in the pig pen to try and catch a pig. He mostly stood there thinking he was being brave, but never actually tried to catch one of the pigs. Later he rode on a horse too.

They enjoyed riding on the wagon pulled by the tractor and the barrel rides.

Baby chicks were more manageable for Noah then pigs or horses. Just in the last few weeks, he's shown more fear of animals...I hope I'm not projecting that on him.

He loved this horse-like tire swing. It would be great to have one of these...if we had a tree to hang it on...

And this fancy lady made quite an entrance. Noah thought she was funny, especially her painted hooves - they were purple!

The boys barely ate lunch, but at least they played in the sand while Ben and I ate ours.
