A Morning at the Farm

My friend Melissa invited us and our little joy school group to visit her dad's farm for "farm day." We had such a good time! There were lots of kids there from schools and preschools and the ward, but everybody got a turn to touch and look at and even feed the animals. Leah especially was in heaven. She adores all animals and got so excited every time we got close to one. The nice farmer even got out a baby goat just for her to touch. It is really so generous of these guys to open their farm up to so many eager little kids each year. Thanks Melissa!

Nate the daredevil

We had one more adventure last Saturday that Nate was too embarrassed to write about. Before our hiking excursion we went to Liberty Park to feed the ducks. Addison had a great time in his stroller soaking up some rays and watching the lake and the people and the birds. We tried hard to avoid the seagulls, which are gross if you've never had much contact with them, and to get to the two ducks that were around, but competition for that bread was pretty fierce, so Nate decided to make the geese work for it (since they're the only ones that would). The documented evidence makes me wonder who was working harder, though, and who was more scared. Must be those ferocious beaks or the powerful weapons they like to call webbed feet. Notice Addison's feet in the video where you can see them.

Golden Parenting Moments

Several weeks ago, Nate woke up feeling gung-ho on a Saturday morning and decided we were going on a family sledding trip. I was a grump, but went along with it anyway. By the time we found a decent place and got a good trail worn down the kids got snow in their drawers and it was time to go. We had a great time, obviously. Poor Nate! .
