The weekend of Mac's birthday we had an absolutely wonderful time at The Wilson-Rutledge Farm in Springfield. It is a really neat farm that is actually run by the public parks department, which means it's free to the public! So glad we found this little gem. One of the very best I have been to or seen. And an added bonus was that since it is now the fall season, they had all of the pumpkin patch and extra activities open (for a nominal fee). We all four had a really great day and plan to visit again very soon!
We amazingly convinced Mac to go on a horse ride. It never crossed my mind that Drew could ride, but they said he could. So we strapped a helmet on that cute head and off they went!
Mac's initial reaction to the ride...not liking at all! Even a few tears
Both boys riding their horses. Such super volunteers to help! The girls even took over my position with Mac so I could take pictures. So thoughtful :)
Drew enjoyed his ride...
But also allowed himself to just totally flop all over with each step the horse took. Sam had to work to keep him on and prevent whiplash! haha
Now saying "Giddy Up Horsey!"
He loved it and felt so big for going alone
Fun in the bounce house, trying to give Daddy a high-five
Water break!
Riding like a big boy in the cow train
Sam scrunched up in the seat with Drew. Check out the name of that cow, "LuLu Belle"...you know I definitely made him ride in that one! LOL
Off they go! Sam is the giant in the middle, and Mac is in the cow right behind him.
Milking a cow. Quite the experience!
On the hay ride
Playing on the playground, every kid's favorite
A delicious birthday lunch of lots and lots of Cheetos
Sweet, sweet Drew!
Totally tuckered from a long, fun day!
Even Thomas and Percy were tired out and needed a nap :)
