The Perfect Sunday Afternoon

Today Jason and I shared the perfect Sunday afternoon with our kids at Tom's Farms. We rode the train, the carousel, mined for gold & jewels, pet baby goats and pigs, chased chickens (mostly Kenley on that one) and ate ice cream (mostly Kenley on that one too, since she ate my cone in addition to hers) and then drove around town in complete silence as our kids recouped with a nap. Sometimes just being together and enjoying our kids being little makes the day perfect.


Here are Kenley and I mining for treasure together. She found several cool rocks and stones to take home and was really proud of them.

Kenley and I rode the big scooper machine (we're chicks, so we don't know the appropriate name for this piece of equipment) and picked up dirt and moved it. Right after this picture Kenley made me get off and stand right next to her because she wanted to "do it all by myself". Umm....I guess she didn't realize that I was having fun too :-) Reece just watched us.

This is me...assaulting a baby goat. I thought this picture of me holding it would be really cute, but now that I see it, I really just look like a crazy person picking up random livestock without asking. He was really soft and fuzzy though :-)

This is my daughter eating a cone (her second I think) and kicking back without a care. What a little lady I am raising huh? She did look pretty cute all sprawled out without a care in the world. I will be spending the next two days trying to remove chocolate from that pink shirt, but that's ok...she enjoyed it :-)
I love this picture of us on the train becaue Reece and I looked so calm and happy and Kenley just looks puzzled. Her face is so hillarious!
