Water play, Gillis Mill Farm

So we didn't really have any plans this weekend.  Our lives have been so busy lately, we decided to just kind of hang out and enjoy our new home.  We started this morning with water play.  It wasn't planned that way, we went outside to play in the backyard and Brandon emptied the dog's water bowl and Micah wanted to play with the water.  We moved out front and got the hose.  Micah and daddy got completely soaked.

After water play fun, we had nap time.  After lunch, we decided to check out a place called Gillis Mill Farm.  It is a family farm that has been there since the 1700s, ran by the same family.  They have a homemade ice cream shop there.  If you buy any ice cream from them, you can do the self guided tour of the farm animals.  We spend $2.43 for a kid ice cream for Micah, which he loved.

Micah loved the goats.  He's always loved goats, he loves to yell MAA at them.

The horse was pretty cool too...there was also a small pond.  I love that Micah will say cheeeseee now for pictures.

Hard to see, but that is what he is doing there with daddy.  I get yelled at for being the one always taking the photo..so here's one of Micah and me.

Micah REALLY loved the mini pony too.  Brandon fed the pony some grass, so he was hanging out there right by us.  Micah desperately wanted to feed the pony, but we were scared his little fingers would look like grass.

Afterwards, we had another nap time because it was a pretty exhausting day..then dinner..and then it started pouring rain! Micah loves watching the rain.

There was a break in the rain and we went outside to play again..

Then it was a bedtime.  It was a pretty wonderful family day.
