Day at the Farm

Adam's preschool class took a field trip to the farm this week. They got to go on a wagon ride, ride a horse, feed baby goats a bottle, feed adult sheep and goats their food out of their hands, and milk a cow. When Adam heard that he was going to get to ride a horse, he said that he was going to be a cowboy and ride really fast...his dad would have been proud of him (Dan loves westerns, especially John Wayne, for those that don't know him well!). I thought that all the activities were really fun for the kids to do, but Adam's favorite part was picking the straw off the bottom of the barn floor and throwing them up in the air. Not even the kids around him who were annoyed at getting staw bits in their hair and faces could deter him...hey, maybe peer pressure won't be as much of a factor as he gets older :-). Although, he claimed that his favorite part was playing on the playground! All in all, a fun day. Andrew spent the day at a friend's house playing with her kids...which I'm glad...I don't think I could have handled them both throwing straw at the same time :-).
