Riding in the train |
Today, Wes took the day off and we went to the fair. This year, we
decided to take the train and the girls loved it! The train drops you
right at the gate.We look at the cars, toured several bathrooms and got our
Borden's milk by visiting Elsie the Cow. We went through the petting zoo where a zebra almost ate
Lizzie's hand. The girls really liked feeding the animals and learned to
use the shovels provided after a couple of goats ate the paper cups
with the feed in it.
This year, we took the girls through the "Little Hands on the
Farm" where they got to pretend to be farmers. Both girls loved it. It
was really fun and took the kids through the entire farming process.
They were even given "money" to "buy" something which was a bag of
Cheetos in the girls case.
We had a great
time. The train ride home was a little long because the girls needed a
nap and were bored on the train. I was really proud of the girls because
we didn't have any potty accidents and they told us when they needed to
go.

At this point they have already fed the chickens, watered and picked the peaches, and milked the cow. Now they are planting their crop |
