Memorial Day Farm Trip


We spent most of our weekend working on our landscaping. (Pictures later)
But on Monday we decided to go to the Deanna Rose Farmstead.

Cooper enjoyed all the animals. Here he is checking out the ducks.
They don't look like Gramma's ducks so he was a little confused at first!


And a cow:


A horse:


A goat:


And Baby Goats!


Derek took Cooper in the petting zoo part to feed the goats.


They knew there was food!


Derek rescued Cooper!


Once they settled down Derek helped Cooper feed this sheep:


And once Cooper figured out they would eat the food he had, he loved feeding them!


One of them decided to nibble on Derek shorts!


We also saw a couple pigs:


Cooper was trying to figure out what he is looking at here. He kept saying, "Doggy"...


...but it was actually a long haired bunny!

We saw some turkeys too:


Cooper liked the calves:


Daddy helped Cooper milk this fake one!


We saw another baby outside and Cooper made another friend:


It started raining so we cut our trip a little short.
But we really enjoyed our weekend spending time together.

And we remember what this day is for and say "Thank You"
to all the families who have given up so much to allow us freedom. We are grateful.
