Day on the Farm

It was such a pretty day that we decided to pack up the kids and head on out to the farm. We went to visit Papaw and Granny who live in Greenville and had the perfect afternoon. Jackson was in heaven with all the animals and other cool things they have there.

Checking out the backyard


Petting the donkeys, Mama Rosy and Baby Butterscotch.

Hanging out on the front porch with Papaw and Andi.

Feeding the cows. Jackson wanted to pet the "baby cows" so bad, but they were a little skittish and never let us get too close.

Driving the tractor--a big fave of the day!

Climbing the ladder to work on the tractor. Turns out he needed his hammer, which was in Garland. He'll sure remember to take all his tools with him next time, though.

Playing on the see-saw with Ms. Andi.

Chasing the big chickens around the yard. There were also a lot of baby chicks, but they didn't want to get too close to us, either. Arghh! Noticing a pattern?

Showing Madison how to use the spray nozzle. The waterhose was also a huge hit. Jackson "watered" the yard for a good 30 minutes. He can't wait to see how his garden is doing when we go back next time.


Enjoying a hostess cupcake at the end of the day. Check out Madison--she's making a beeline for that cupcake! Definitely the perfect way to end our day at the farm:)
