Field Trip to the Farm!

Wednesday we were able to sneak away for Josiah's field trip before the groupon expired. We took the kids to Green Meadows Farm. It was actually very mild weather so we were able to really enjoy being outdoors rather than being completely miserable due to the heat and humidity.

At first I was planning just to add a few photos to the weekly school post but then decided that choosing just a few photos was going to be too hard. So here is a separate post with lots of pictures! 
 Getting ready to hold a baby duck and a baby chick.
 
 Joanna kept trying to squeeze the poor ducklings head so Michael had to be very deliberate in helping her pet the duck.
 Checking out the pigs

 The kids got to feed them a lettuce leaf.
 The goats were a favorite of the day. Joanna especially loved them and had no fear of running up to them and smacking them on the back.


 After petting them we came out of the pen and got a chance to feed them. Josiah was a little cautious of them getting the food out of his hand and he ended up dropping most of the feed on the ground. Joanna on the other hand didn't flinch.

We had lots of fun but we were all wiped out and didn't actually finish the tour. Michael and I had fun testing Josiah on the color of all the animals and asking what letter sounds he heard in their names. :)
