Bates Nut Farm...

There is the funniest place out in the country called "Bates Nut Farm", the kids usually do a field trip there every year till 4th grade!! Rylee's had her first Preschool field trip there last Friday!! It was so fun, the weather was perfect!! You get to go on hay rides, go through a maze and pick out your own pumpkin. They also got to feed some animals and ride ponies..it is such a fun experience and the kids love it!!!


Rylee and some of her friends!!


Her class....

On the hay ride...




Watching the ducks and geese....she was just absolutely in love with ALL the animals...


Joslyn saying Hello to the turkey..."Gobble, Gobble"


Joslyn petting the goat..she had NO fear when it came to these little guys!! She was right in the mix of everyone feeding and petting the goats!! Her sister on the other hand was very cautious and didn't want to feed them, she kept yelling and Joslyn to get away from them....it was funny!! Two different personalities!!


We couldn't get Joslyn to lay her hand out flat to feed the goats, she fed them just one kernal at a time...her little fingers would get nibbled every time when the goats where trying to get the food...it soooo did not bother her :)

Taking the pumpkins to the car....I know I have been horrible about posting PREGO pictures so here are a few.....(7 1/2 months)


The excitment of riding a horse...oh my goodness, the girls where so excited to ride the ponies....Joslyn just kept yelling "RIDE THE NEIGH, NEIGH"...


The first thing Joslyn did was pet the pony and give it loves...


Rylee on her pony....




Joslyn was so sad to get off the horse she needed to give it a hug goodbye...


Joslyn needed to hug every goat.....along with the sound affect of a big GRUNT

Rylee was sitting on this little chair away from all the animals and this chicken came up to say Hi...so she took her chair and went running!!





Rylee was extremely cautious around all the animals, she chose to sit on the side in a chair and stay away from them...BUT it was driving her crazy that Joslyn was by them all hugging and loving them. So, she kept trying to get Joslyn away from the animals and sit by her....Joslyn of course lasted a few second on the chair and was off trying to touch another animal.


After many trys of Rylee doing this..Joslyn decided if she wants me to be on a chair I am moving it in the middle of all the animals..so this is Jos picking the chair up and moving it...


Right in the middle of the animals..it was so funny!!
