A bunch of pictures of our visit to the farm

You may recall that last year we came to this very same farm and I posted about it here.  We had so much fun last summer that we thought we would check it out in the Spring, with the hope that there would be some baby animals. Once again the farm did not disappoint.


Everyone brought their cameras and many pictures were taken.  Some of the animals, and some of each other.

Chickens and roosters. My littlest man just loves chickens and roosters.

Old fashioned wooden toys abound.

The farm house

Inside the house there are a couple of rooms decorated in 1800's style with all kinds of toys and whatnot from that time period.


The kitchen in the house. There are usually one or two ladies in here cooking various things. Today there was the aroma of chicken and on the table there were some asparagus that had just been cooked.

Enjoying the parlor.

Of course, what is a farm without horses. Sadly my Woo is allergic to horses, but that didn't stop her from getting close and petting one. Of course next time we'll remember to give her some allergy medicine before we go. I don't know if she thought the itchy face and watery eyes were worth it.

Baby lambies!!!!! There were a bunch of them and they were so cute!

Grinding corn - Tiger's favorite thing to do

Aside from looking at chickens and grinding corn, the only other thing that Tiger really wanted to do was look for rocks. He had quite a collection in his pockets by the time with left the farm. I just need to remember to empty the pockets of his coat before I wash it.

Swinging


One last look at the chickens on our way out.

Once outside of the farm, we drove around through the rest of the park and found this covered bridge. Ohio is actually full of them, but I never seem to have a camera when I find one. Luckily, this park made it easy for me.

We can't wait to go back again. Although the kids made it clear that they do not want to be there during slaughter time.
