Thanksgiving Point Locals

Here's a random Princess photo. It could not be helped. They were playing yesterday and were just SO cute!

Anyway, the main reason for the post:


Thanksgiving point has a really cute little "Farm" that you can take your kiddos to for a really cheap outdoor activity. So on Saturday, Justin Madeline Caren and I all went over to take a look at all their critters. Of course Madeline gravitated towards the horses like an old biddy to a bingo barn.



In the end, it was either some time in "Jail" or we'd have to find someplace to put a horse here at home...



There were a lot of animals, but it was such a hot day that most of the poor things were passed out in the shade. Here are a few that managed to stay awake for us.


Tom the Turkey looked a little Henpecked, but he was still VERY impressive.


This gentleman was absolutely beautiful. No matter how I tried I could not get him to display his feathers though.



Ok so they're not all awake, but this little guy couldn't have been more than a day old! He was still wet behind the ears and he was SOOOOO tiny! That water can behind him is not much bigger than an ice cream maker!


We were graced with a royal presence as well. Yurtle the Turtle, King of his Pond.


Madeline had fun feeding the animals corn, but these two just could not wait their turns. So she scolded them!


Every day that passes I am reminded how much I love my husband and daughter. I am so happy that we got to spend a day just hanging out at the farm!
