There is a local farm that we like to visit where you can pet animals, ride on trains, do pony rides, and pick your own fruits and veggies straight from the ground. It's a 10 minute ride from my house so when Andy and my parents decided they wanted to go see a movie last Sunday, I decided to spend some quality time at the farm with my boy.
 |
| I lured him out of my parents house with the promise of riding a "Choo Choo" and that's all it took. |
 |
| Apparently goats can drive cars here. |
 |
| I asked him to put his head in the little piggy after I demonstrated so he humored me. That's love. |
 |
| Picking some green beans that we ended up cooking for dinner. They were SO yummy. |
 |
| I did find lots of leaves and stems, and not so many green beans in Carter's bag. |
 |
| Lots O' Lettuce, ripe for the picking. |
 |
| My favorite was the strawberry picking time. |
 |
| I didn't have to worry about Carter mixing stems and leaves here, he definitely knew what to go for. Although he couldn't distinguish a ripe strawberry from a rotten one, or a not-so-ripe one. Mommy would graciously accept his pickings and then weed out the uglies when he wasn't looking. That's what we do, right? |
 |
Carter wondered off up some hill lined with avocado trees.
In 80+ degree heat, I had to go chasing him, camera, strawberries and all, only causing him to run faster.
Fun! |
I'm linking up as always to the Wordless(ish) Wednesday link-up on
