Lamb & Wool Festival

Last weekend, Bryce, Cole, and I went with my mom and dad to the Lamb and Wool Festival at Thanksgiving Point. Before Pa and Nana got to our house, we had to get all ready, which included putting on Cole's frog boots and sunglasses, and then chugging lots of green tea. (Yes, my weirdly healthy son loves green tea!)This was the first sight that greeted us at the festival - baby pygmy goats. Everyone all at once: Awwwwwww.......There was a lot to do at the festival. We fed baby goats:We went on a hay ride:And Cole rode a horse! (Well, maybe not a horse. More like a small pony. But I digress.) He didn't like it at first, but by the end was loving it, and the rest of the morning kept wanting to "Ride!"One thing not at the festival? Lambs. Huh. Maybe the title "Lamb & Wool Festival" needs a revisit.

Anyway, we had a wonderful time, and all agreed that it was fun to actually do something relaxing on the weekend instead of just working. Cole loved being with Pa & Nana, as always.

We thought about it. Sounds like a fun time.

Jonathan also likes weird healthy drinks like Odwala's
Superfood drink. Its a lot of "green" like barley grass and wheat grass and artichoke and then bananas and apples, and also spirulina. It is his drink of choice everytime. But he is mostly a terrible eater beside that, but I'll let him drink it, no complaints from me.

Looks like a fun day out! Cole's frog boots are freaking adorable where did you get those?
