Emma's Farm Trip

Emma's kindergarten class had their spring field trip where they went to the Stout Family Farm. It was a lot of fun once we got there. They had us walk about a city block to the farm and I, not knowing if my stroller could handle the farm, had to carry Lydia the whole way and drag Lila behind me. Luckily a few rounds of Old McDonald helped us make the most of the walk.

Their farm is just the cutest, most quaint, farm I have ever been to. They had an orchard in their front yard, the house had a wrap around porch, tire and mattress swings in the back and cute little animals all around.

This picture is of the kids gathering around to get their instructions. You can see the horses, the mattress swing, and about 1/4 of the kids that were in attendance.




The first thing they did was bring out the baby lambs to show the kids how they are fed. I don't know about the kids, but it was really fun to see these babies suck from bottles.


















Once the kids were separated into groups our group got to feed the horse. I really wasn't sure if the kids would be willing to feed the horse but both just dived in.














Lydia had a really good time walking around. She steered clear of any animal but was perfectly content to walk around and do her best to get her little tush on one of the mattress swings.















The mattress swings were a HUGE hit. The kids loved it and the best part was that a lot of kids could enjoy it at once.












There was a couple other swings to enjoy while we were there. The tire swing in the back and this one here. Lila really liked this one the most.










Here are the cows that we got to feed.















Baby Lydia is happy as a clam (and trying her darndest to get her hands on my cell phone!). She did not want to get off. We just laid on the swing in the shade, under the trees and listened to the trees and felt the breeze. It was one of the best parts of MY day... :)
